I have read.
And studied.
And memorized God’s word.
I know about God’s relationship with humans since the beginning and I understand the promises he has made to those who trust in him for our future.
I know that God has been very clear that my first priority is to love God and love others. Period. End of story. Everything in this world fits into one of those two categories.
I know what God wants me to do today – and tomorrow. I know how God wants me to act.
God reminds me as I read Daniel’s discussion with King Belshazzar that I know all these things and God expects me to let his truth change how I think, what I say and how I act.
Daniel told the King the he knew all about God but the King did not honor “the God who holds in his hand your life and all of your ways.” As a result – that very night – the king was killed.
I know all about God as well. And I need to let God transform me and my life through this knowledge. This is not a Christmas and Easter or just Sunday thing. God’s truth should to be evident in my life today – and every day.
Because I know.
Please transform me through your truth, Abba Father.
