Day 258 of Heart Dive 365. I'm your Bible study friend Kenoy. Welcome to the Heart Dive podcast.

Well, today we are moving from the autobiographical portion of the book of Daniel. And now for the

next six chapters, we will be seeing more of his visions, more of that

future prophecy that he is being given. So today we are reading 7 through 9 from the ESV by

Crossway Translation. But before we get started, Bible Study, friends, if you could hit the

thumbs up button, that is your roll call button that you are here for another day of reading

God's word. If you want to know when the Bible study videos come out every day, because no, we don't do this live. We do drop the videos. We're studying with you in real time. And so they come out at all different times because as much as we will purpose in our hearts to wake up early, to get things done, to get it filmed and get it edited, it doesn't always happen. Right? So in order to know that, you got to be subscribed, you got to have that notification bell on, and that way YouTube can notify you when the videos come out. If you're new to this Bible study, showing up for the very first time, hello, welcome! We are so glad that you are here. Make sure to check out the show notes or description box. For all the info that you need for this Bible study, I do have a link for my Bible study notes that you can take a look at if you think that that will be helpful for you or you can always go to our website, heartdive.org, where we have lots more stuff for you. We've got merchandise. We've got extra resources. We've got all the answers to any questions that you might have about us. That's

kind of our one-stop shop. If you want to join fellowship, we've got online groups that meet.

We also have a Facebook group. We've got a prayer room every single Monday. I've got all of those

links in the description box. So don't glance over those. Let's go ahead and pray and jump on

into God's word. Heavenly Father, we love you, we honor you, we praise you in your holiness and your righteousness,

your greatness, your mercy, your kindness, your forgiveness, everything that you are.

You are the great I am, the only one who is worthy to be worshipped, honored and praised.

Please forgive us for our sins, Lord.

You know what those are. And we should too, Lord, but if there is anything that we don't recognize as sin, I pray that you will reveal that to our hearts right now. We want to be changed from glory to glory. We want to come into this Bible study, into this time of prayer and fellowship with you. We don't want to walk away from it the same. We want to be changed. And so we open ourselves up to you right now to be able to do that. Please open our hearts,

our ears, our eyes, everything completely submitted to you. Help us to hear your voice today,

to see your face, and to just understand this word and the way that you intended for it to be spoken, received, and understood. The word says, Lord, that those who seek you will find you. And if we draw near to you, you will draw near to us. And so we are trusting in that today. We ask for revelation. We ask for an encounter with you, one that will fill us up with a little bit more strength in faith today. We love you so much.

We thank you for this time. And I just pray that you will bless every single person who is here,

Lord, meet their needs right where they're at. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.

Okay, so starting off here in chapter 7, Daniel's now probably in his late 60s.

And this chapter should actually chronologically be placed between chapters four and five.

So this book is not written chronologically, but the reason why probably they organized it this way
