Four passages and a short devotional a day to take you through the whole Bible in one year — right alongside your Spirit Church family.
Real questions from Spirit readers on this passage, answered by our pastors.
Daniel's visions begin tonight: four beasts from a churning sea, thrones set in place, the Ancient of Days taking His seat, and then, coming with the clouds of heaven, one like a son of man, given authority, glory, and a kingdom that will never be destroyed.
When Jesus called Himself the Son of Man, this is the page He was pointing to. Today you read His favorite title at its source.
The beasts get the early scenes and the loud entrances, empires with teeth, horns with boasts, and then the room changes: thrones, books, fire, and a seated Ancient of Days. History's monsters turn out to be defendants. And dominion goes to a figure the empires never saw coming, one like a son of man, riding clouds reserved for God alone.
John touched Him. That is 1 John's opening claim, the cloud-rider had hands, and his blood purifies from all sin. November ends where Psalm 119 does: a lost sheep, asking to be sought, confident of the Shepherd's answer. Confess freely tonight. The court that opens the books is chaired by your Redeemer.
