God’s messenger told Daniel, “ Those who are wise^[a] will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.” [Dan. 12:3]

My experience has shown me that God can grant you marvelous opportunities to lead others to righteousness that only come to you through being faithful to the Lord’s calling in your life. The Psalmist said this is an honor that “no man takes unto himself.” Divine opportunities come to faithful people.

Be faithful to the Lord.

PRAYER: Father of faithfulness, work Your character into me. Shine upon and through me Your great love and power. In my life may others be attracted to Your Kingdom.
