“And all the inhabitants of the earth
are reputed as nothing:
and He (God) doeth according to His will
in the army of Heaven,
and among the inhabitants of the earth:
and none can stay His hand,
or say unto Him, What doest Thou?”
Daniel 4:35
.
.
.
.
In yesterday’s devotional (click here), Lucifer was given a whole lot of credit for what goes on in this world.
.
And so, in effort to bring balance to this issue, today’s devotional will be a reminder that God is ultimately in control of what goes on here on Planet Earth.

GOD IN ULTIMATE CONTROL.
.
Listen to our signature passage for the day…“And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and He (God) doeth according to His will in the army of Heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay His hand, or say unto Him, What doest Thou?” Daniel 4:35
.
So, here it states that God does His own will, both in Heaven, and also on earth.

.
Well, just how does this statement go hand-in-hand with yesterday’s sweeping premise that Lucifer, “the god of this world”, causes so much of what goes on here? (2nd Corinthians 4:4)

“ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD!”
.
Actually, the Bible has a number of accounts in which God allowed Satan to do evil, for the purpose of ultimately bringing about good.
.
For instance, remember how Satan demanded permission to sift Peter like wheat? God allowed Satan to tempt Peter for Peter’s own good. Peter had a lot of rough edges, which his fall from grace ultimately drove out his pride, impulsiveness, and self-reliance.
.
And God likewise allowed Satan to cause trouble, anguish, and temptation in the life of Job, for the same purpose as Peter’s trials, which were designed to purify, to humble, to make less-self-reliant.
.
And so, these two examples, plus other similar Bible examples give us a fuller understanding, “that all things work together for good to them that love God…” Romans 8:28
.
Here is seen that God works through the day-by-day occurrences of this life, in order to help His people.

GOD USES RADIO AND INTERNET FOR GOOD
.
Now yesterday’s devotional (click here) made a lot of bold claims concerning Satan’s role in orchestrating both the people of the world as well as many of the world’s events. For instance, Satan was given credit for the invention of the various high-tech devices available in today’s world.
.
So just how does this fit in with the truth that God “worketh all things together for good”?
.
Well, for one thing, such inventions like the Internet, while making a whole lot of evil readily available, can also be the source for wholesome Christian ministries. Oh yes, the Internet searcher must exercise great discernment regarding which Internet ministries to embrace and which not to embrace!
.

.
“CHOOSE YE THIS DAY…”
Joshua 24:15
.
But the point is, while Satan, “the god of this world” is that spirit which “now worketh in the children of disobedience”, nevertheless God uses him in a way that brings about ultimate good for the people of God.
.
Yes, God has allowed Satan to raise up this antichrist world-system, so that it may be made manifest the two forms of government: Lucifer’s government of selfishness, and God’s government of selfless love!
.
.

.
“GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY!”
Proverbs 25:25
.
Well, the very Good News is that even though we’ve come to the final closing moments of this world of evil, there is still time for any and for every soul who desires to begin the end-time exodus out of this doomed planet, before it erupts into a fiery deluge!
.
Yes, the Door of escape is still open! And the final call is now beginning to go out…“And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness…” Isaiah 35:8
.
Yes, there is, indeed, a heavenward highway out of this doomed world, soon to be burned with fire!
.
And all those who embark upon this upward pathway will eventually reach that wonderful Promised Land, in which we will be forever happy, and forever young!

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN
.
.
.
LOCATING THE DRAGON
.
REVELATION 12 DRAGON IS NOT DRACO!
.
.
First, let it be stated, that this Dragon Constellation is not the same constellation commonly referred to as “Draco” (photo to right is Draco).
.
This Revelation 12 Dragon from Signs Of Heaven, has not been previously recognized. But you will discover that it is a very intricate and complex constellation, once you are comfortable locating it (picture below, right).

REVELATION 12 DRAGON
.
.
The star-charts below (below, right) are from Wikipedia and are combined into one chart to show these three constellations, which the editor has sketched over with these three constellations, as they appear when in the west. Hopefully, this will be an assist in locating these constellations in the night-sky.
.

.
.
.
.
LOCATION…
.
The Revelation 12 Dragon Constellation can be located by finding Orion in winter months.
.
The Dragon is to Orion’s left, and the Dragon’s mouth is right next to Orion’s shield. This Dragon’s mouth is the V-like constellation The Hyades Cluster, which is also known as the head of Taurus the Bull. The Dragon’s tail-tip is Pleiades and the lower shaft of his tail is partly of Aries and Pisces. Then with aid of a dark and starry night, you may begin to connect the mouth and the tail with a very long body in an oval shape. The front and back legs are made of a few stars: the front legs partially of stars from Taurus . The back legs and rear fin are made of 6 stars from the Cetus Constellation.
.
BODY HARD TO SEE
.
The long oval-shaped body has relatively few stars, but can been seen, howbeit with a dark, starry night. The four stars of the front fins are made partially of Taurus .
