Slowing To The End

Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week;
But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the desolate.”   Daniel 9:27

As the end of an interesting week shows itself on this Friday, I am trying to slow things down a bit. Am I in charge of the pace of events? Not overall, but there is room for me to make a few decisions about what I try to get done this day. This verse in Daniel tells of a week, and this week of years puts my little events into a tiny little shadow hardly to be seen.  Quite a few chapters of the Revelation are contained in this week given as prophecy to Daniel, including all 21 judgments to be revealed and poured out upon the earth. The two witnesses come in this time, and they are real life superheroes with powers. 

The verse in Daniel also tells about the great treachery of that time by one who comes on the wing of abominations. Would one of these abominations be the tearing down of public statues? Could it be the pedestals are being cleared to fulfill another prophecy, that of the image of the first beast that all must worship in this final week of the age? Makes one think... and maybe want to run to check those scriptures of prophecy once more? 

I may get to slow down a bit for the weekend, but history looks to be speeding up toward the ending.  Love in Christ Jesus to you!
