Summary
God wants to give you His very best. He has a great plan for your life and that plan includes receiving the very best from His gracious hand. However, most people don’t get God’s best because they have missed a couple of important steps along the way. Chip reveals those important steps so you can begin getting God’s best for your life.
Main PointsBabylon is on the march...
- Observation #1: We are not at the mercy of a pagan culture.
- Observation #2: The future of the world will be determined by who captures the next generation.
- Observation #3: Protection of our children from our culture is impossible, but preparation of them is imperative.
- Observation #4: Only a generation with biblical convictions and a winsome spirit can transform the Babylonian culture of our day.
Daniel possessed two critical characteristics:
- Convictions = Refusing to compromise in spite of the cost. - Proverbs 13:20
- Courage = Refusing to conform even when you’re afraid. - Romans 4:20-21; Proverbs 27:17
Daniel’s life reveals that getting God’s best is a “no – yes” proposition. - Romans 12:2
- Truth, Not “Trying Harder,” is the Pathway to True Spirituality - John 8:31-32
