Following a Father's Footsteps - Daniel: Part 5 - Woodside Bible Church Romeo

Woodside Bible Church Romeo

What happens when one directly disobeys God? Or when someone goes as far as to blaspheme Him? That is dangerous territory to trod on. That's why scripture warns us of how serious it is to oppose Him. To see it in others is simple, but to admit it in our lives is never easy. Whenever we challenge, insult, or forget God's character and His goodness in our lives, we act in blasphemy toward Him. It is a serious thing, thankfully we have a God of forgiveness and mercy, and we can be forgiven by faith through Jesus Christ. Today, we are diving into another chapter in Daniel, looking at the fall of a king who opposed God. In this chapter, we see that God is sovereign over ungodly kings and kingdoms. We learn lessons from history and actively try not to repeat their past mistakes—it is the same for us as Christians. The word of God is full of stories of men and women who have fallen short, disobeyed God, forgot Him, and walked away, but thanks be to God that He never stopped chasing after them. We see that through their failings and mistakes, God is present, He picked them up, patched the pieces, and restored them. Just as He did then, He is doing now, so we need to learn from what scripture states. Join us in another sermon from the series, Following a Father's Footsteps, and remember your need for Jesus.
