Coming on The Clouds of Heaven

Posted by Wes Schaeffer | September 29, 2022

From today’s reading...

I was gazing into the visions of the night, when I saw, coming on the clouds of heaven, as it were a son of man. He came to the One most venerable and was led into his presence.” Daniel 7:13

In today’s Gospel reading, Jesus references this verse from Daniel as He’s speaking to Nathanael, “And then he added, ‘In all truth I tell you, you will see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending over the Son of man.’” (John 1:51)

Daniel was writing about 200 years before Jesus quoted him.

Imagine a luminary, or even an unknown farmer or fisherman, writing in 1822, back when there were only 24 states in the United States, before the telegraph, Morse code, and steam locomotion were invented, “I see one coming from a foreign land, who creates a new type of invisible bank…and a mode of transportation that moves on its own and even drives itself…and he even sends one to other planets.”

Now don’t get all weirded out.

I’m not saying Elon Musk is like Jesus, I’m just picking a prominent person today and making you consider how amazed you’d be that someone 200 years prior could foretell his coming.

So just sit with that for a moment.

If you do, you’ll know Daniel was right, and when you consider the power of his vision, you’d be like him and...

Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.

Now go sell something.
