This chapter gives more detail on the prophecies concerning the coming Medo-Persian and Greek Empires. When we see the detail and find that it was completely fulfilled hundreds of years later, it provides needed confidence in the aspects of Daniel's (and the Apostle John's) prophetic revelations. We can build our life on truth, even when it is hard to hear. And through the leadership of the Holy Spirit, we can be prepared to stand strong in Christ, regardless of what the future holds.

Join us as we explore where we exist in the timeline of history. God is revealing to Pastor Bryan where we are in time and how to live, survive and even thrive in such a time as this. In Revelation, Jesus provides a promise of blessing for those who take that prophecy to heart and allow it to affect their life and lifestyle. Since this prophecy in Daniel is another, less detailed, prophecy on the same events, I believe this blessing will be ours, as well. It is time for the church to move in harmony with the soon and climactic coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, hence the title, "All In at the End."

Following this week's closing on the purchase of property, Pastor Bryan shares some of the major details around the purchase of the property, including our next steps and a timeline for beginning worship in our new space. Importantly, he tells how difficult it became to get the deal closed in the last days and up to the last moment. The message behind these difficulties? God is still at work in and through us as we take these next steps. And there is still much to believe, to do, to prepare for, to learn, and experience in this season of our existence. The message from Zechariah 4) both challenges and inspires us to engage in this moment of our Mission and Ministry together.

In this passage, Jesus speaks directly to his disciples during the Last Supper and through the Holy Spirit, to his disciples today. We talk about why Jesus is worth following and his divinity/deity as the second member of the Trinity.

We continue to look at the history of Daniel's time, so we can understand the prophecy, which begins in the very next chapter, and we also receive application from the message as it is applied to us by the Holy Spirit. Pastor Bryan senses the Lord continuing to reinforce His message to us, which is: "In 2026, He will remove obstruction and obstructors (spiritual and human) and set free the obstructed (faithful) to move forward to do the Will of God."

We explore the historical context of this section and the prophetic significance, and also show how this passage illustrates the simple, power-filled way God (by his Holy Spirit) can cause massive obstacles to His Will to vanish instantly. There are so many ways to apply this to our own journey with Him...

Discover what the prophets foretold about the birth of Christ over 700 years before the day God fulfilled His Word, and the incredible implications of this miracle (and power) that exists for us today.

This Psalm rejoices in God's faithfulness to not just restore us, but to redeem us out of difficult times, even if it was because of our own sin. We will reflect with gratitude on the great things He has done...and begin to imagine the great things we perceive He will soon do!
