249 - Psalms of captivity

Kathleen's thoughts

Daniel 7: 15-28, 8: 1-27,
Psalm 67: 1-7 130:: 1-8, 137: 1-9
Isaiah 13: 17-22
Jeremiah 25: 12-14, 50: 1-8

The meaning of the visions These huge beasts, four in number, are four kings who will rise from the earth. But the holy ones of the Most High will receive the kingdom and possess it forever, yes, forever and ever.
The fourth beast that is different from the others, extremely terrifying, with iron teeth and bronze claws, devouring, crushing, and trampling with its feet whatever was left.
I also wanted to know about the 10 horns on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three feel - the horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke arrogantly, and that was more visible than the others.
As I was watching, this horn made war with the holy ones and was prevailing over them until the Ancient of days arrived and a judgment was given in favour of the holy ones of the Most High, for the time had come, and the holy ones took possession of the kingdom.

This is what he said: The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, different from all the other kingdoms. It will devour the whole earth, trample it down and crush it. The 10 horns are 10 kings who will rise from this kingdom. Another, different from the previous ones, will rise after them and subdue three kings. He will speak words against the Most High and oppress the holy ones of the Most High. He will intend to change religious festivals and laws, and the holy ones will be handed over to him for a time. times, and half a time. But the court will convene, and his dominion will be take away to be completely destroyed forever. The kingdom dominion , and greatness of the kingdoms under all of heaven will be given to the people, the holy ones of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will serve and obey Him.

When I read the above today it made me think of our generation today how they are trying to change the laws to suit themselves and not God's law. Prophesy is God's word and it's all coming true.

Captivity psalms; A song of thanksgiving Beautiful Psalm of thanksgiving. May God be gracious to us and bless us; look on us with favour

A prayer for mercy I lift my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven.

A prayer for help Out of the depths I call to You, Lord! Lord, listen to my voice; O let Your ears be attentive to my cry for help.

The Israelites lament By the rivers of Babylon there we sat down and wept when we remembered Zion.

Daniel's vision of a ram and a goat This vision is about the end times and what is going to happen. The vision of the evenings and the mornings that has been told is true. Now you must seal up the vision because it refers to many days in the future.

Daniel's vision explained This was also given to Jeremiah the prophet. When 70 years are completed, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation - this is the Lord's declaration the land of the Chaldean's, for their guilt, and  I will make it a ruin forever. I will bring on that land all My words I have spoken against it, all that is written in this book that Jeremiah prophesied agains all the nations. For many nations and great kings will enslave the, and I will repay them according to their deeds and the work of their hands.

Announce to the nations; proclaim and raise up a signal flag. proclaim, and hide nothing.
Say' Babylon is captured; Bel is put to shame; Marduk is devastated her idols are put to shame; her false gods, devastated


Fall of Babylon prophesied. God is our refuge and strength, a helper who is always found i times of trouble...The Lord of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold Psalm 46: 1-11
