Micah Explains True Religion in One Short Verse
Micah also states that we should “love kindness.” What does that mean? It means we should endeavor to be kind to all people and by its very nature, it means that we put our own wants and needs on the back burner. You cannot be concerned about how others “feel” if you are concerned primarily with yourself. To be kind means to always think in terms of how the other person feels. What’s happening with them? What are they having to deal with? How can I make their life easier?

Daniel 11, Part 2
If Daniel 11 shows us anything, it shows us that God is intimately involved in humanity’s affairs is actively directs things to the climax of this age so that His purposes – all of them will be accomplished – while still allowing humanity to have some semblance of free will, in spite of the fall of man.
Goodbye Rusty Boy
We must walk where God would have us walk. We must empty our hearts of the things that have too big a grasp on us. Whether it’s a pet, social media, TV, or even a person, we must learn to put everything into proper perspective. We must also learn to allow God to work in our lives for our betterment and for His glory. We must. There are too many things in this world that can and often succeed in pulling our attention from God. Sometimes, because of it, God has to do drastic surgery on us.
Daniel Chapter 11, Part 1
Before I get into that chapter, I’d like to point out something. There are several schools of thought related to the entirety of the book of Daniel, including chapter eleven. As with everything else biblical, critics have come out of the woodwork to either downplay, attempt to negate, or even change the way they want us to look at this eleventh chapter of Daniel. In a broad brush stroke, some of the “concerns” these so-called higher critics have is applied to the entire book of Daniel, not just specific chapters, like chapter eleven.
What’s Your Level of Commitment?
Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, and Daniel had spent decades living for God. By the time they got to Babylon, it was firmly embedded in their thinking and outlook. They could no more set aside their obedience to God than they would drink muddy, putrid water. There was no question about their direction. They were all in for God regardless of the cost.
It’s Too Easy to Compromise Isn’t It?
Now, we might never address or counsel leaders or kings, but that’s not really the point. The point is that God will bless our efforts to be and remain faithful to Him in all things. The world (Babylon) is constantly trying to force us to compromise ourselves and we’ll look at some of these things specifically in future articles. Because the world is trying so hard to pull us from God, thereby minimizing our testimony, it is imperative that we resolve to follow Him in spite of any negative consequences that might occur.

Luciferian Age of the Spirit
What most of the public sees today is a very obvious though general “war” between good and evil; forces of seeming good in our government against the evil of the cabal. This is what most are focusing on and because of that, much at the periphery seems to go unnoticed by the average person. Unfortunately, it will likely be these very things that people don’t notice that will undoubtedly become major turning points for society in the near future.

Politics, Social Networks and Liars
Notice in all of these cases, God has the final word. Reading through the prophets bares this out. Ezekiel is told to take up a lamentation against Tyre, against Ammon, against Babylon, and against many other nations. Why? Because ultimately, God is in charge of all of these things. Even when He allows Satan to seemingly succeed, God does so for His purposes and glory. This is the way it has always been and will always be unto the end.
