When Kings And People Repent. Part [13] 04/27/2025 (Evening thought)

Daniel 5:22 And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knew all this.

Daniel 5: 23 But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:

Daniel 5:4 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written. 25 And this is the writing that was written, Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin. 26 This is the interpretation of the thing: Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it. 27 Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting. 28 Peres; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.

In our day, if you are a king, or if you are a people, that same merciful God of yesterday, today, and forever, is now calling on you to consider your ways. If you have made decisions without consulting God, and if you are suffering greatly as a result, the same God will forgive and heal when the prerequisites are met. But just as it was in bygone years, we will have to humble ourselves, pray, seek God’s face, and turn from our wicked ways.

Jeremiah 3:13 Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the Lord thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the Lord.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
