Jesus said that the poor would always be with us, but that we are called to help them anyway.  So a good Christian who is able to share reaches out to his brothers and sisters who are in need.  In the same way, end times prophecy makes it pretty clear that we will always have war, and that real world peace will always elude us.  Nevertheless we can help bring real peace to the hearts and souls of individuals by introducing them to the Prince of Peace.  Jesus Christ can help you to know what it’s like to have calm through all the storms of life.

You always hear about THE antichrist who will come in the end times and do all sorts of bad things.  But there has been foreshadowing of  this same destructive person going back long before Jesus was even born.  And Jesus even referenced Daniel’s prophecy in in order to warn people what to look out for in the future.

And you thought you had it bad!

A large portion of Daniel 11 is dedicated to one man.  But he is not remembered for his brave deeds or his faithfulness.  He is recorded in Scripture and history as a despicable madman.  And he focuses his mad rage upon the Jews and leaves a bloody trail of wretched deeds behind him.

If you’re not satisfied with the government, just wait till you hear what this national leader did to his subjects.

It’s amazing just how much God gives us to be assured that he is for real, and that Christians don’t just have blind faith in some off-the-shelf religion.  This chapter is jam packed with prophetic details foretelling events centuries before they happened with such detail that the only explanation is a supernatural God with the power to do what he does.

People are a lot faster and busier these days than they were in Bible times.  People rush to and fro all over the earth.  There are still some hold-outs in remote locations.  But most our world seems to be in a big hurry these days.  People are so busy going places and getting things done.  Even the “fun” stuff has to be done in a rush.  We have mega stores open 24 hours a day, and fast food joints and gas stations and health clubs.  We’re working all day, and then we keep on going all day, all night, all week, and all weekend.  We are so technologically advanced in computers and transportation and medicine that we somehow think we’re morally superior to the people in the Bible.  But the truth is, the battle that raged over the hearts of people thousands of years ago is the same battle that rages today…and it’s all connected to God’s Word.

Take a listen, and tell me what you think.

Most of the time, you probably don’t think about the fact that what we are always floating on a massive ocean of molten rock.  The grass and trees and oceans and streams, the mountains, the valleys–everything we typically think of when we think of the earth that we live on is really just a thin skin wrapped around a core of fiery hot lava, that would burn us all up in no time if we were exposed to it.

Usually we don’t even see any of it.  Once in awhile there might be a volcanic eruption and we get a quick glimpse of the heat and energy hidden beneath our feet.

Similarly, we don’t typically see the power and action going on in heavenly realms.  But once in a while we catch a glimpse of what is happening in the realm of angels, and Daniel chapter 10 offers one of those glimpses.

What do you think it would be like to meet an angel face to face?  My guess is that it’s nothing like you’ve ever imagined.  When people in the Bible meet angels, much of the time they are paralyzed with fear and they fall on their faces.  So if an angel actually revealed itself to you, more than likely it would be a terrifying event.  At the same time, it would make for the story of a lifetime, because angels aren’t sent to people for the fun of it.  They always come bearing important news.

So do you think it would be worth it to be scared half-to-death in order to receive a personal message from the Lord?

Have you ever wondered what angels do?  You see artwork of angels everywhere from statues in churches to paintings in museums to dangley decorations on rear view mirrors.   But what do they really look like, and how do they really operate?

Have you ever wondered why God revealed things through the Old Testament prophets?  Thinking about Daniel, why would God tell Daniel about kingdoms and powers that would rise to power in the centuries to come after Daniel was God?  Why would he give him details about the end of the world.

Well the simple answer is because God wants to save you.  He shares information about things to come in order that you might be prepared to avoid the judgment that befalls all people who reject the Lord.  Prophecy is meant to change you heart, to change your mind, and to change your behavior.
