The theme of the book of Daniel is God’s sovereignty. In Chapter 2, Daniel correctly prophesies four world kingdoms in their successive order that have already risen and fallen and two world kingdoms that will emerge in the last days. Kingdoms rise and fall and nations come and go, but there is only one kingdom that will last eternally—the kingdom of King Jesus. Who is the King over your life? Lis...

Special guest Dr. Wess Stafford shares about his life, and how he came to understand that "the least of these" matter most.

Even though Daniel didn’t have power in Babylon, he had profound influence. Daniel thrived while living in an ungodly society, and he serves as an example for us today. What steps are you taking to pursue a holy life in the Babylonian culture of our day? Are you praying for wisdom and walking in godliness? Daniel pursued holiness with humility, and he never lost hope that God would be faithful to...

We live in a Babylonian culture of “flexible” truth, because the enemy has had the same play since Genesis 3: convincing Adam and Eve to doubt God’s authority and reject His truth. In Daniel 1, we see Daniel and his companions faced with the same dilemma: would they reject what was right to save their lives? But like Daniel, we can respond to our own moral dilemmas by standing on the foundation of...

Who do you belong to? This is an important question because who you are is defined by whose you are. We have forgotten who we are because we have forgotten who God is! God made us, and He has authority over us – He alone defines us. From Daniel’s captivity in 605 B.C. to the 21st century, a distorted identity will always lead to death and captivity. Our Babylonian civilization is in open rebellion...

We live in a “Babylonian” society where the spirit of Babylon is fully alive, and it's battling for the hearts and minds of America’s youth. Like Daniel, we must prepare our children for an authority crisis! God alone is our authority, but society is teaching our children there is no higher authority than SELF. How are you planning to protect your family against the Babylonian society in which we...

In Daniel 1:1-4, we see Nebuchadnezzar waging a religious and cultural war against the Jews but also against their God. In our day, there are four pillars of Judeo-Christian civilization that have been targeted for destruction – Faith, Family, Finances, and Freedom. The American Church often reflects more of Babylon than it does the Bible. It's time to rebuild the walls of our nation and repair th...

The theme of the book of Daniel is God’s sovereignty! The kingdoms of this world will rise and fall, but the kingdom of our God will abide forever! As we begin our study of the book of Daniel, we find both history and prophecy in the first chapter of Daniel. Babylon in the Bible is a symbol of a wicked world system that is anti-God and anti-Christ. While the city of Babylon died long ago, the spir...

Leaders have vision to see not merely what is but what will be. Vision is seeing what God sees and seeing future realities that may currently seem impossible. Moses’ leadership was limited because of his sin, and he wasn’t allowed to enter the Promised Land. Our sin and unbelief cannot limit God’s plan for eternity, but it can limit God’s plan for our lives personally. As we evaluate our lives, is...

Good leaders are good followers. If you rebel against following God-given leadership in your life, it can lead to destruction. Korah and his band of men pridefully stood against Moses and Aaron, who were appointed by God to lead the people of Israel. Their rebellion was ultimately against God’s authority, and their destruction was a warning to the people of Israel. If you want to be a wise leader,...

It’s your decisions, not good intentions, that define your destination. Moses sent twelve spies into Canaan to gather intelligence on the enemy. Ten of the twelve came back with a desire to “preserve” their lives instead of being willing to “give” their lives. Consequently, they and an entire generation of Hebrews would all die in the wilderness. But Joshua and Caleb decided ahead of time to belie...

God will sometimes lead you to a place where the odds are against you so He can show you He can save you. At times, being right in the center of God’s will is having your back to the sea, a situation from which there is no escape. Like Moses, in the Red Sea moments, Jesus alone is sufficient to save you—and He will.

As Christians in a world system that is increasingly hostile to the Gospel, we must aspire to be the salt of God's word and the light of God's love. It's the truth of God’s Word that preserves society from moral and spiritual decay. Salt is the truth we say, and the light is the love that we show. People aren’t changed by merely what we say but rather what they see. Listen to The Well Podcast ⤵ Sp...

The Church is the household of God. But if each member selfishly uses their unique gifts for themselves instead of contributing to the Church, it results in unhealthiness and weakness. We must use our gifts faithfully and we will see God’s Kingdom grow.

Our real hope is found in the gospel of Jesus Christ. As Christians, our first allegiance must be to the Kingdom of God and the multi-ethnic family of God. As Christians living in modern America, we have all been politicized, and we must renew our minds to think biblically, not politically.   Listen to The Well Podcast ⤵ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5wadnywAMEK7c0E1qatMoY?si=SjH6Ko7VR3Oo...

When it comes to the invitation to join the movement of God, He doesn’t want something from you, He wants something for you. God's plan for the church is to live open-handed and outward focused and for His followers to be open-hearted and obedient.

We live in a society where many people compromise and get saturated in the sin of the world. To have a right relationship with God, you must seek to be holy. It's the repentance of sin that restores us to Him and the blood of Jesus Christ that can wash away the stain of our sin.  Listen to The Well Podcast ⤵ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5wadnywAMEK7c0E1qatMoY?si=SjH6Ko7VR3OoHrRy1yYLlQ&nd...

Hebrews warns us not to forsake meeting together, but to encourage one another. A healthy local church is one that is growing in new believers, going to the lost, and grounded in God’s Word.

The marriage between human philosophy and biblical theology leads to apostasy. We must aspire to follow the foundational beliefs essential to the Christian faith and stand for the truth of God's Word.  Listen to The Well Podcast ⤵ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5wadnywAMEK7c0E1qatMoY?si=SjH6Ko7VR3OoHrRy1yYLlQ&nd=1&dlsi=395ae55d95ac4b11 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/...
