TAKING A MOMENT

AUGUST 25, 2013 – DO YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW – Remember being a kid and you wanted in on all the secrets? You would say, “I promise I won’t tell.” As I was studying the holy scriptures yesterday I came across these verses and I can’t get them out of my mind: Daniel 8:26-27 “And the vision of the evenings and mornings which was told is true; therefore seal up the vision, for it refers to many days in the future.” And I, Daniel, fainted and was sick for days; afterward I arose and went about the king’s business. I was astonished by the vision, but no one understood it. (NKJ) The Lord revealed future things to Daniel and he actually became sick because of the future knowledge that he was given. We think we want to know everything that is going to happen in the future, but do we really want to know? Sometimes the future plans of God do not make sense in our human mind, in the present. If God wants you to know, He will move by His Holy Spirit and tell you; it even might make you sick. But here’s the thing – Seal up the future knowledge, rise back up, and be about the King’s business in this present time!
