09/28/20 THE GREATNESS OF OUR GOD #18 — Daniel 7:27 (CSB) says, “The kingdom, dominion, and GREATNESS of the kingdoms under all of heaven will be given to the people, the holy ones of The Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will serve and obey Him.”

Chapter 7 is a flashback to 14 years earlier than The Handwriting on the Wall of chapter 5. Here Daniel interpreted Belshazzar’s dream of the Four Beasts. The application goes far beyond Daniel’s lifetime (and our own, most likely). The trial of the Antichrist is foretold, where his dominion is destroyed permanently. Here Jesus the Messiah is called the Son of Man (coincidentally Jesus’ favorite designation of Himself!) and God is referred to as “The Most High.”

Not only will God the Father finally promote His Only Son Jesus to the throne of the universe, but He will transfer all the power, influence and greatness of all the kingdoms on earth to all the faithful citizens of HIs Kingdom, those redeemed by the blood of Jesus Christ. What a Day That Will Be—Praise the Lord!
