Prophetic Destinations

Only an all-knowing God could paint an inclusive picture of the conflicts touching His people from the sixth century BC until the beginning of the time of the end. Daniel 8, given in so few startling and mysterious portraits has unfolded to give us trust in Divine foreknowledge. But a studied answer finds in the mystery of the fulfilled past the greater purpose of warning regarding the final events coming upon earth. To those living in the closing scenes of the drama of the ages will be a test with eternal consequences. History repeats itself. Daniel must prophesy again!
Raised a Christian, I merely read God's Word rather than studied it. Around age thirty, my hurts and disappointments spurred me to wonder if God was really interested in me, and if so, what would He have to say to me on a personal level. Rather than to discover Him through thoughts coming from the spiritual insight of others, I asked God to show Himself to me. Slowly, with the Holy Spirit to guide, I found a simple but organized way to compare Scriptures and to build a picture of God's personal touch. My experience has been like a daily adventure with God which has given me certainty in Him as a Friend who truly cares about my individual life in a confused world. The study of God is addictive and cleansing and something better than anything I have experienced. Prophecy makes life make sense to me.
