Faith-full friends and family, what is our response or reaction when we see prophecy clearly being fulfilled before our very eyes? Many people look at the world events today and say, to the effect, “This must be the end, or if not, the end is close behind!”

This week’s study looks at the first half of Daniel Chapter 9, one of the most moving and powerful prayers recorded in Scripture (besides Jesus’ “high priestly” prayer in John 17). The prophet and servant of God Most High did not dance and shout in jubilation. His response was curious, indeed. The realization that what was written by Jeremiah 70 before was coming true, and that realization/revelation drove him to his knees (or face) in prayer. How, then, should WE pray as the Lord’s return draws near and the signs of His coming become more obvious? Let’s learn from the great prophet-in-exile.”
