Daniel 12:8-13 The Message

8 “I heard all this plainly enough, but I didn’t understand it. So I asked, ‘Master, can you explain this to me?’
9-10 “‘Go on about your business, Daniel,’ he said. ‘The message is confidential and under lock and key until the end, until things are about to be wrapped up. The populace will be washed clean and made like new. But the wicked will just keep on being wicked, without a clue about what is happening. Those who live wisely and well will understand what’s going on.’
11 “From the time that the daily worship is banished from the Temple and the obscene desecration is set up in its place; there will be 1,290 days.
12 “Blessed are those who patiently make it through the 1,335 days.
13 “And you? Go about your business without fretting or worrying. Relax. When it’s all over, you will be on your feet to receive your reward.”

For Reflection

The advice that God gave to Daniel when ruling during the troubles should also be taken for those of us who understand our troubles as Daniel understood the difficulties he faced.  God's intentions for humankind will be achieved. We do not know the timing. But in the meantime, we should continue our obedience to the Word and have patience and hope.

Pray

Pray for patience in the face of the unknown. Pray for courage and obedience to God's call.
