Last Days Believers - The Prophet & The King (notes)

Last Days Believers - The Prophet & The King

As We Get closer to the end of the age we are going to see the anointing on the prophetic increase.

God Will Raise up an army of young prophets with an alarming accuracy rate in their prophetic utterances.

Joel 2:28, Acts 2:17-18

Look Back to a period in history when God spoke to a king through a dream and how God raised up a young prophet to speak into the life of this king with God’s Word.

Daniel 4

God Sent

• Angles to declare the verdict of the judge of the universe.

Daniel 4:17

Daniel Was

• Terrified by the dream of the king.
• “My Lord, if only the dream applied to your enemies and its meaning to your adversaries.”

Daniel 4:19

You Are that tree O King! You have become great and strong; your greatness has grown until it reaches the sky. And your dominion extends to distant parts of the earth.

Daniel 4:22

An Angel

Pronounces the verdict: “cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump, bound with iron and bronze, in the grass of the field, while its roots remain in the ground.”

It was not a fatal blow, but it was a blow to the king of the greatest kingdom on earth at the time.

Daniel 4:23

Explanation:

“You will be driven away from people and will live with wild animals, you’ll eat grass like cattle and be drenched with dew, seven years until you learn that God most high controls all earthly kingdoms and chooses their rulers.”

Daniel 4:25

God Gives The King

A choice. Turn from evil, do good!

1. Renounce your sins.
2. Do what is right.
3. Be kind to the oppressed.
4. Your prosperity will continue.

A Year Later

• The king did not do what God said and as he was boasting about all his accomplishments God sent the Word of Judgment. He went insane for seven years.

God Restores The King

His sanity is restored:

• He praises the most high.
• He honored and glorified God.
• He declares God’s Kingdom is an eternal dominion and endures from generation to generation.
• Man is nothing.
• God does what He pleases with the powers of heaven and the people of the earth.

Application

• God is in charge of history.
• God can pick anyone to lead a world empire.
• God can speak to that leader through one of his servants.
• God can humble the arrogant.
• God will receive the Glory and His purpose will be accomplished.

The Greatest Issue

• Of our day is abortion. Let me give you the history of planned parenthood.
• Margaret Sanger (1883-1966) founder of P.P.
• What she said about immigrants & indigents: “human weeds, reckless breeders, spawning… human beings who never should have been born. Couples should be required to submit applications to have a child.”
• About African Americans “We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population.”

This Is A Time To Repent

• America has become like the kingdom of Babylon. We are a huge tree where animals can find shade and this tree has blessed the world.
• We must all pray for Mercy for if we do not we will be judged. We must stop killing our unborn children for if we do not this tree will be chopped down.
