DANCED FOR THEM / MATTHEW 14:6-7

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 14:6-7

 But when Herod’s birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod. 7 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask

DANCED FOR THEM / MATTHEW 14:6-7

The public, and likely sensuous (causing lustful thoughts) performance of an ungodly girl for Herod and his guests led to the death of one of the godliest men who ever lived. Even Herod had regrets about his foolish promise and was distressed about executing John. 

  1. Worldly parties, sensual dancing and ungodly entertainment often lead to foolish and regretful decisions. Such activities usually increase inappropriate passions and cause people to forget God, diminishing their ability to recognize sin and make right choices. True followers of God will not participate in or try to justify such activities. 

According to Scripture, spontaneous dancing by Hebrew women and girls was done on exceptionally joyful occasions (Jeremiah 31:4), such as victory celebrations following a battle as they sang to the Lord (Exodus 15:19-21). But this kind of dancing was an expression of godly joy (the term often used for “dance” simply implies to leap and turn about); it did not involve sensually provocative or suggestive movements just for “fun” or to feel good. In addition, there is no Biblical record that Jewish men danced with women, nor is there any indication that Jewish women ever danced to entertain an audience. The dancing of  Herodias’ daughter at Herod’s birthday party was a pagan practice (of a culture that recognized no god or many false “gods”).

FILLED HIM WITH THE SPIRIT OF GOD WITH SKILL / EXODUS 31:1-5

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 31:1-5

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, 2 See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: 3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, 4 To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, 5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

FILLED HIM WITH THE SPIRIT OF GOD WITH SKILL / EXODUS 31:1-5

The idea of “being filled with the Spirit of God,” as it is used here, means to be spiritually equipped or empowered for special service of God. God fills and empowers people with His Spirit not only for “spiritual” responsibilities, but also for practical service. (Moses actually carries out these instructions. He gave specific assignments to Bezalet, Oholiab and others to do the work in Exodus 35:10 -36:31.) The work of ministry is not just reserved for church leaders. Every person is a minister in some way (2 Corinthians 3:6). While God does give special skills to individuals for specific tasks, He has also equipped every person with unique talents and abilities. Those talents allow each person to make a difference for His kingdom. God’s Spirit empowers and enlightens people’s minds with the skills and knowledge to creatively serve His purposes. Even the ability to show or teach others how to do something is a special gift from God (Exodus 35:34). God wants us to use what we have been given to build up and encourage others (1 Corinthians 12:4-20; Ephesians 4:12). Peter writes that “each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms” (1 Peter 4:10). All Christ’s followers today should pray that the Spirit will give them both physical skills and spiritual gifts. God’s plans for their lives will be fulfilled as they use their gifts for His glory.

MADE THEIR HEARTS AS HARD AS FLINT / ZECHARIAH 7:12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Zechariah 7:12

Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the Lord of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the Lord of hosts.

MADE THEIR HEARTS AS HARD AS FLINT / ZECHARIAH 7:12

Flint was one of the hardest substances known in Old Testament times (Jeremiah 17:1; Ezekiel 3:8-9). 

  1. Through His law and through previous Spirit-led prophets, God had called His people to practice justice, mercy and compassion (Zechariah 7:8-9; Micah 6:8); but the people stubbornly refused to obey. When judgment came, it was too late to repent. 
  2. What God expects from His people has not changed. He desires that we show love and compassion to those in need.

WAS IT REALLY FOR ME THAT YOU FASTED? / ZECHARIAH 7:1-5

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Zechariah 7:1-5

And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the Lord came unto Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth month, even in Chisleu; 2 When they had sent unto the house of God Sherezer and Regemmelech, and their men, to pray before the Lord, 3 And to speak unto the priests which were in the house of the Lord of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years? 4 Then came the word of the Lord of hosts unto me, saying, 5 Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying, When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh month, even those seventy years, did ye at all fast unto me, even to me?

WAS IT REALLY FOR ME THAT YOU FASTED? / ZECHARIAH 7:1-5

God’s law called for only one day of fasting (going without food for a limited time to focus on spiritual matters) each year – the Day of Atonement in the seventh month. By this time, the Jews had added a fast in the fifth month to commemorate the destruction of the temple by Nebuchadnezzar’s Babylonian armies (2 Kings 25:8-9). Now that the temple was being rebuilt (518 B.C.), they wanted to know if they had to continue observing that day. 

  1. God’s message was that their fasting was not acceptable because it was done with the wrong attitude and motives (Matthew 6:16). They simply were going through a formal routine without any real hunger and thirst for God and desire to accomplish His purposes. 

The people needed to pay attention to prophets such as Isaiah (Isaiah 58:3-5) and to respond by sincerely fasting and praying for God’s help so they could live in a way that pleased Him and benefited others. This should include promoting justice and showing mercy (Zechariah 7:8-10; Micah 6:8).

FOR BURNING INCENSE / EXODUS 30:1

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 30:1

And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it.

FOR BURNING INCENSE / EXODUS 30:1

The burning incense symbolized the continual worship and prayers of God’s people (Exodus 30:8; Psalms 141; Luke 1:10; Revelation 8:3-4; Revelation 5:8). The fact that this altar could be dishonored or corrupted (Exodus 30:9) indicated that prayers could be unacceptable to God if they dishonored Him. God would not accept anything from a selfish or impure heart that rejected holiness (Psalms 66:18-19; Isaiah 1:15-16).

HIS NUMBER IS 666 / REVELATION 13:18

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 13:18

Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

HIS NUMBER IS 666 / REVELATION 13:18

Although the antichrist is called “the beast” throughout Revelation, “the number of his name,” or symbol of his character, is 666. Much speculation and controversy have surrounded this description, and people have tried all sorts of methods for manipulating the characters in the names of various world leaders to show how they might add up to or represent this number. However, the “wisdom” (Revelation 13:18) in Revelation does not put the main emphasis on adding up the numbers of the beast’s name. Rather, the “insight” seems to be the phrase “it is man’s number.” Many commentators view six as the number for humanity and three as the number of God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit). Therefore, the three sixes could simply refer to a man who makes or declares himself to be god. Like the Roman emperors and many both before and after them, the antichrist believes himself to be god (Revelation 13:8; 2 Thessalonians 2:4).

ANOTHER BEAST / REVELATION 13:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 13:11

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

ANOTHER BEAST / REVELATION 13:11

This other beast will assist the first beast (Revelation 13:2), directing the world to worship the antichrist (Revelation 13:12) and misleading humanity by working deceptive miracles (Revelation 13:13-14; Deuteronomy 13:1-3; 2 Thessalonians 2:9-10; 2 Thessalonians 2:11; 2 Thessalonians 2:12). He is also referred to as “the false prophet” (Revelation 19:20; Revelation 20:10). His “two horns like a lamb” signify his attempt to deceive people by presenting himself as a loving, gentle and caring person. In reality, however, his character is not like that of a lamb but of a dragon (Matthew 7:15).

ALL WILL WORSHIP THE BEAST – LAMB THAT WAS SLAIN FROM THE CREATION / REVELATION 13:8

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 13:8

 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

ALL WILL WORSHIP THE BEAST – LAMB THAT WAS SLAIN FROM THE CREATION / REVELATION 13:8

ALL WILL WORSHIP THE BEAST

By this time, the authority and control of the beast is extended beyond the first ten nations he controlled to include control over the entire world. This will be evident at or near the beginning of the last three and a half years of the tribulation period (Daniel 7:3-8, 19-25; 11:45; 12:16). The antichrist then declares himself to be deity (of God, as a “god”) and possesses supernatural power of the demonic world (2 Thessalonians 2:4; 2 Thessalonians 2:9). Those deceived by his works (Revelation 13:3) will worship the beast (Revelation 13:4; Revelation 13:8; Revelation 13:12; Revelation 14:9; 16:2). The religion of the antichrist basically teaches the divinity (the god-like status, capacity or destiny) of humanity (Genesis 3:5). Instead of the truth that in Christ God became human (John 1:14), he speaks the lie that in himself humanity has and can become God (2 Thessalonians 2:4). Humanistic philosophies and New Age teaching today emphasize this same concept and may be preparing the masses for the ultimate acceptance of the antichrist’s false religion.

LAMB THAT WAS SLAIN FROM THE CREATION

God’s plan to save and restore people to a right relationship with Himself through Christ’s death for sins was decreed and laid out even before creation or human history began (Revelation 17:8; Genesis 3:15; 1 Peter 1:18-20).

MAKE WAR AGAINST THE SAINTS / REVELATION 13:7

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 13:7

And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

MAKE WAR AGAINST THE SAINTS / REVELATION 13:7

During the tribulation, people will have to choose whether to follow the new political leader and his authorized religion or devote themselves to Christ and remain faithful to Him.

  1. Those who remain faithful to God and His Word will be persecuted and quite possibly killed (Revelation 6:9; Revelation 7:9). 
  2. Satan will “conquer them,” not in the sense that their faith is destroyed, but in the sense that many will be required to give their lives for Christ (Revelation 6:9; Revelation 6:10; Revelation 6:11). For “fourty-two months,” the antichrist will make war against God’s people (Revelation 13:5).
