God's call

Monday November 23^rd, Daniel 7: Then I continued to watch because of the boastful words the horn was speaking. I kept looking until the beast was slain and its body destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire. The other beasts had been stripped of their authority, but were allowed to live for a period of time. The horn is the mouthpiece of the power of this world, the mouthpiece of military and monetary might. In God's vision there is no place for it in the kingdom of God, the kingdom of the future, the kingdom of our future. Other temptations are all still around us, but their time is limited. When we catch this vision for God's future world, it is hard to get all caught up in the power plays of this world. God's future is a world of peace; a world where all live as the children of God, a place where there is healing and wholeness. God's call is a call to start living that vision now, in our lives today.
