Then behold, a hand atouched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees.He said to me, "O aDaniel, man of high esteem, bunderstand the words that I am about to tell you and cstand upright, for I have now been sent to you." And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood up dtrembling.Then he said to me, "aDo not be afraid, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart on understanding this and on bhumbling yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response cto your words."But the prince of the kingdom of Persia was withstanding me for twenty-one days; then behold, aMichael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left there with the kings of Persia."Now I have come to agive you an understanding of what will happen to your people in the blatter days, for the vision pertains to cthe days yet future."When he had spoken to me according to these words, I turned my face toward the ground and became aspeechless.And behold, aone who resembled a human being was btouching my lips; then I opened my mouth and spoke and said to him who was standing before me, "O my lord, as a result of the vision canguish has come upon me, and I have retained no strength.Now I, Daniel, aalone saw the vision, while the bmen who were with me did not see the vision; nevertheless, a great cdread fell on them, and they ran away to hide themselves.So I was aleft alone and saw this great vision; yet bno strength was left in me, for my natural color turned to a deathly pallor, and I retained no strength.But I heard the sound of his words; and as soon as I heard the sound of his words, I afell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face to the ground.

highlighted 2 Kings 6:1-17 NASB

The king of Israel sent to the place about which the man of God had told him; thus he warned him, so that he guarded himself there, more than once or twice.Now the heart of the king of Aram was enraged over this thing; and he called his servants and said to them, "Will you tell me which of us is for the king of Israel?"One of his servants said, "No, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom."So he said, "Go and see where he is, that I may send and take him." And it was told him, saying, "Behold, he is in aDothan."He sent horses and chariots and a great army there, and they came by night and surrounded the city.Now when the attendant of the man of God had risen early and gone out, behold, an army with horses and chariots was circling the city. And his servant said to him, "Alas, my master! What shall we do?"So he answered, "aDo not fear, for bthose who are with us are more than those who are with them."Then Elisha prayed and said, "aO Lord, I pray, open his eyes that he may see." And the Lord opened the servant's eyes and he saw; and behold, the mountain was full of bhorses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.Now athe sons of the prophets said to Elisha, "Behold now, the place before you where we are living is too limited for us."Please let us go to the Jordan and each of us take from there a beam, and let us make a place there for ourselves where we may live." So he said, "Go."Then one said, "Please be willing to go with your servants." And he answered, "I shall go."So he went with them; and when they came to the Jordan, they cut down trees.But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water; and he cried out and said, "Alas, my master! For it was borrowed."Then the man of God said, "Where did it fall?" And when he showed him the place, ahe cut off a stick and threw it in there, and made the iron float.He said, "Take it up for yourself." So he put out his hand and took it.Now the king of Aram was warring against Israel; and he counseled with his servants saying, "In such and such a place shall be my camp."aThe man of God sent word to the king of Israel saying, "Beware that you do not pass this place, for the Arameans are coming down there."

highlighted 1 Corinthians 11:23-29 NASB

For aI received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, that bthe Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread;and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me."In the same way He took athe cup also after supper, saying, "This cup is the bnew covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death auntil He comes.Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be aguilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.But a man must aexamine himself, and in so doing he is to eat of the bread and drink of the cup.For he who eats and drinks, eats and drinks judgment to himself if he does not judge the body rightly.

highlighted Philippians 3:7-8 NASB

But awhatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ.More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of aknowing bChrist Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ,

For what I am doing, aI do not understand; for I am not practicing bwhat I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate.But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with athe Law, confessing that the Law is good.So now, ano longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my aflesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not.

highlighted James 1:20-24 NASB

for athe anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God.Therefore, aputting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive bthe word implanted, which is able to save your souls.aBut prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face ain a mirror;for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was.
