Daily Reflection: Daniel 7 is one of the most beautifully prophetic passages in all of scripture. In this vision, Daniel sees four beasts rise from the ocean – all of whom represent human kingdoms with destruction in mind. God himself comes with the “Son of Man” who defeats the human kingdoms, occupies the throne next to YHWH, and inaugurates the kingdom of God. In this way, the Son of Man is given all authority to lead the kingdom of God and all of the people within it. In Jesus’ claim to be the “Son of Man,” he is stating his kingship over his people and declaring them set free from the bondage set in motion by sin and death.
Daily Demonstration: The recognition of Jesus as king is a pivotal reality in one’s walk with Christ. Seated at the right hand of the Father, Jesus rules over all creation with eternity in mind. Jesus has all authority, and even shares that authority for the advancement of the Great Commission. Today, take time to honor Jesus in his kingship and thank him for his loving-kindness. Work toward shifting to your view of Jesus as your king – how does this mindset change the way you approach him?

Jesus is both fully man and fully God – YHWH in the flesh. Not only does he perfectly model the attributes of YHWH as God, but also the image of God as a human. Jesus is a beautiful model of the Kingdom presented on earth. This plan dives deeply into the character of Jesus, and teaches how to step into the image of God that we were made to be.
