He changes the times and seasons of the year. He takes away the power of kings and gives their power to new kings. He gives wisdom to those who are wise and knowledge to those who understand. … The observers gave this command; the holy ones declared the sentence. This is so all people may know that the Most High God rules over every kingdom on earth. God gives those kingdoms to anyone he wants, and he chooses people to rule them who are not proud.
Dear Ones: Be encouraged by these words given to Daniel. The LORD changes NOT so these words are still applicable today. You may ask, “Well then why this war?” Christians are commanded to occupy and enforce the LORD’s victory until HE returns.
Let us step up and search the Word of God and then use it against the forces of darkness. As children of Light, we have the right to use HIS authority to push back the darkness. There is a great harvest of souls waiting for the children of Light to walk in the fullness of their inheritance in HIM. Let us take these words to heart and realize that our declarations of HIS authority against the powers of darkness are how we resist the devil and his minions and cause them to flee.
May the power of these words encourage you today to resist the forces of darkness that have come against you and yours. May you find comfort in HIS power and peace in HIS presence today. Have an overcoming day in the LORD. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
