In reply to: Hillbilly 's message, "Dan. Chap. 5 vss. 7-12 Post #25" on 22:19:18 09/18/09 Fri

made a great impression upon me .

Yes we are to go to the Lord
in prayer first. Amen.




DO YOU SEE THE HEBREW CAPTIVE KNEELING?

Do you see the Hebrew captive kneeling,
At morning, noon and night, to pray?
In his chamber he remembers Zion,
Though in exile far away.

Refrain

Are your windows open toward Jerusalem,
Though as captives here, a “little while” we stay?
For the coming of the King in His glory
Are you watching day by day?

Refrain

Do not fear to tread the fiery furnace,
Nor shrink the lion’s den to share;
For the God of Daniel will deliver,
He will send His angel there.

Refrain

Children of the living God, take courage,
Your great deliverance sweetly sing.
Set your faces toward the hill of Zion,
Thence to hail your coming King.

Refrain



Daniel 6:10-11
Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.
Then these men assembled, and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.

that Hymn: DO YOU SEE THE HEBREW CAPTIVE KNEELING?
I like the words and if the melody is as good as the words it is a great song. A hymn to remind one of the deliverance that is in God if we will but submit to Him and keep our knees worn from prayer.

Can you imagine 21 days of prayer (Dan. 10:2 with Dan. 10:12)? Have you ever tried even 1 hour of fervent prayer? (Mark 14:37-38) After 5 or 10 minutes you get to feeling everything is repetition and start feeling guilty for not being able to pray more earnestly.

Daniel may not have spent 21 days on his knees but I will venture to say that for the 21 days he was constantly in communication with God in prayer and intercession.
