Daniel: Thriving in Exile

November 22, 2020 • Joel Owen

In Daniel 8 we get to participate in a vision that is said to be beyond understanding. For Daniel many of these things would happen in the distant future. For us today, we can look back and see what has happened and how these things may lead us to understand more fully how God operates in the middle of the suffering of His people.

More from DANIEL

God Is In Control

January 24, 2021 • Joel Owen

As we close our series on the book of Daniel we see once again that God is sovereign over the affairs of mankind. We also see that, like in the days of Daniel, wickedness and evil persist, yet God remains trustworthy and promises a time when all evil will have it’s day in court. Until then, we must choose where we stand- with the wise or the wicked.

God’s Delayed Response

January 17, 2021 • Joel Owen

The final chapters of Daniel reveal a great and terrifying future for the people of God including wars and hardship. And while those physical wars are scary enough, in this message we see another war that is taking place in the unseen realms. There are always heavenly realities behind human conflicts.

God’s Unexpected Response

January 10, 2021 • Joel Owen

Daniel is deep in prayer about the end of the Babylonian exile when he receives a response from God. However, the response isn’t exactly what Daniel was hoping for. In this message we learn there is power in prayer, but we must yield to God’s will over our desires.
