Heard this phrase so often that sometimes it seems cliche. I figured that since the word of the God is the living word, it could never be cliche unless one fails to be touched by what was written. The heart of the matter is the matter of the heart, right?
What I learnt from YM's facilitation is that God has given Danial the determination not to compromise on his beliefs and values and instead gave him the wisdom to come up with an alternative proposal to pacify the king. I shared with the group that I like to pray for the wisdom to be able to do come up with something creative (something very not me) in difficult situations. For me, I pray for wisdom as often as I can remember to.
I heard something more in the short sermon message in the $14.90 Planetshakers CD cum DVD today. It was also on Daniel 1. THe speaker challenges us to speak the language of the world today, but also live a life that is set apart so people will be attracted to that something that they don't have. It is very encouraging to hear him share a simple truth. When people come to us, they are looking for something different, they want to hear something they have not already known. The holy spirit in us helps to pick up that need and answers the need that they have, if we will let him work.
And we who have the holy spirit in us have that special ability that is different that no one has. Those who has High EQ has it easier. But those with lower EQ also has the holy spirit. Even best is when one has high EQ and the holy spirit working mightily in them. So many lives that we can impact for Christ, if only we manage to set our eyes on our destiny persistently.
Another 1 liner power statement: Worship is not just about an aha experience, worship is our lives.
