| He Is Alive |
|
| "I issue a decree that in every part of my kingdom people must fear and reverence the God of Daniel. For he is the living God and he endures forever; his kingdom will not be destroyed, his dominion will never end." ( Daniel 6:26 , NIV ) |

If you owned a time machine, where would you go? What periods or events in the past would you like to witness?
I would like to see the great works of God in the Bible. What did it look like for millions of Israelites to cross a parted Red Sea? What was King Darius' reaction when Daniel walked out of the lions' den without a scratch? How did David feel standing over the fallen Goliath? How did it look when the stone over Jesus' tomb was rolled away? What great things God did in the past!
God is still working. We know He is alive today. We see God in the joy in the rebirth of a person after baptism. We see His power in changed lives. God is active in the peace given to a father in the midst of turmoil or the guidance of a missionary abroad. We see God in our blessing, and we are certain of His presence in our trials.
God is referred to more than thirty-five times in the Bible as a living God. The world will tell us that God is dead. They are badly mistaken. God is alive and well today! |

Dear God, guide us, protect us, give us strength, and mold us to shine for You. Remind us that we serve a living God. In the name of the Risen Savior. Amen. - DAVID M. CLEVENGER, Dallas, Texas |
