Daniel was a person who was always praying, even at the risk of his life. Because he was such a praying person, the kings (Nebuchadnezzar, Darius, and Belteshazzar) spoke of him as “having an excellent spirit”. Daniel had an excellent spirit because he had an exercised spirit, a spirit that always prayed to His God. […]
Being Joined to God’s Desire Through His Word by Dealing with Our Whole Being
Daniel was a person who not only read the Scriptures but he joined himself to God’s desire through His word. When Daniel read in Leviticus concerning the fact that God doesn’t want His people to eat anything that is offered to the idols, he immediately rejected to eat the king’s food and would rather eat […]
Flee Youthful Lusts and Pursue Christ in the Body with God-Given Companions!
Paul encourages Timothy in 2 Tim. 2:22, But flee youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

For this reason, God could use them as those who voluntarily consecrated themselves to Him for His move, for Him to turn the age […]

God Rules For Christ to Have the Preeminence in Us and Be Everything To Us
God’s desire is to give Christ the preeminence in all things – He wants Christ to have the first place in all things (see Col. 1:15, 18). In the old creation, Christ is preeminent – He is the firstborn of all creation. In the new creation, Christ is preeminent – He is the firstborn from […]
Seeing a Vision of the Excellent Christ in His Preciousness in Daniel 10
In both Daniel 10:4-9 and Revelation 1:13-16 we see a particular vision concerning Christ as the Precious One in His humanity, with many wonderful characteristics. I read the portion in Daniel 10 many times, but it was not until I read brother Lee’s exposition on it in the life-study that I actually got to appreciate […]
