Reveal the God Who Is Close
God used Daniel and his small group to reveal the God who is close to us.
Reveal the God Who Is Close
Those far from God believe his dwelling is not with flesh. Their impossible makes them believe he is not with them.
Daniel told Nebuchadnezzar that he isn’t just in heaven, but he is also revealing mysteries right here in the flesh.
And Daniel did this inside the context of where Nebuchadnezzar was in his life.
God revealed a Kingdom which never will be destroyed. The impossible is easier faced when we know we serve a King inside a Kingdom which will never be destroyed.
Ultimately God used this small group to show Nebuchadnezzar that YHWH is the…
God of gods.
Revealer of mysteries.
The God who dwells among people.
Nebuchadnezzar did not fully believe (yet), but he came to a new understand of who YHWH is. Those who believe God cannot be close to them or in flesh will not go fully on board in one moment. Especially those as hard as Nebuchadnezzar.
God wants to use you to reveal mysteries in life others find impossible.
God wants to use you to reveal God came in flesh and is now still Immanuel today in the Spirit.
He wants to use your small group to seek mercy from the God of heaven when there are mysteries of life in the lives of those far from God so they can see God is close to them.
Faith is seeing only what God can see and acting on it. God wants to show you only what he can see for others and then reveal it to them. But one step at a time.
Take the Bible Deeper:
God wants to use you and your small group to reveal mysteries to those far from God so they can see there is a God who dwells with them.
Who is around you that is walking in darkness with the weight of the impossible?
How can your small group walk with those far from God to help them walk closer to the God who is close to them?
