2025 Promise for Youth – Victorious Daniel

The Kingdom may change, the rules and regulations of the government may change, but you can be victorious in any situation.

The Bible says in Daniel 6:28 (AMP): So this [man] Daniel prospered and enjoyed success in the reign of Darius and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.

In the upcoming years, the earth may go through a very challenging phase.

The king of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar, conquered Israel in different phases. Similarly, the Antichrist is trying to establish his Kingdom upon the earth. He is altering the rules and regulations of governments, which will cause the earth to experience a very tough phase.

He will target youths like Daniel. Daniel was in captivity; they brought him under the new rules and regulations, yet he stood firm in his devotion to God. How was this possible? The answer is prayer. Daniel was a man of prayer, which enabled him to succeed under any Kingdom, rules, or regulations.

Prayer is the most powerful weapon, but it is being underrated by the current generation. When we discuss wars and their weapons, we tend to overhype modern innovations like nuclear weapons or upcoming laser technology. Yet, we do not show the same enthusiasm for prayer, the most powerful weapon of all. People do not discuss it, nor are they curious about its nature and power. Prayer is truly underestimated in this generation. Few care about Godly matters, but remember: our God is called the LORD OF HOSTS.

The LORD OF HOSTS has prepared His army for a great war against the Antichrist and his followers. The fascinating part of this war is that for you and me to participate, we must be people of prayer. God will use only those who pray because they understand the power of prayer and how to wield it effectively. If you examine Daniel’s life, you will see he was a man of prayer.

Daniel fasted and prayed for 21 days. During this time, there was a great spiritual battle in the heavens. The prince of Persia resisted Angel Gabriel, and Angel Michael, part of the Lord’s Host, came to assist.

Daniel 10:13 (NKJV): But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.

Daniel 10:20 (NKJV): Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? And now I must return to fight with the prince of Persia; and when I have gone forth, indeed the prince of Greece will come.”

Angel Gabriel carried a message from God to Daniel. The moment Daniel began to pray, God sent His angel with a message. The prince of Persia, a spiritual force, blocked Angel Gabriel in the heavenly realms, leading to intense warfare. Eventually, Angel Gabriel reached Daniel with God’s message.

Daniel’s persistent prayers were crucial in this spiritual warfare, which resulted in him receiving divine wisdom about the end times. As we live in the end times today, God is searching for Daniels in this generation. He will empower you with prayer, the most powerful weapon of the end times, enabling you to succeed in any situation.

Give your heart to Jesus, the one who died on the cross for your sins. He will forgive your sins, fill you with His loving Holy Spirit, and empower you to pray like Daniel. He will make you persistent in prayer so that you, too, will be victorious like Daniel. Amen.

Holy Spirit Ignites Prayer

You may already be someone who prays, but ask yourself: are you praying with the Holy Spirit? Even if you have received the Holy Spirit’s anointing, it is possible to pray without being led by Him.

The Holy Spirit is a wonderful friend in prayer, helping you in times of difficulty. A true friend stands by you in every situation, and the Holy Spirit is that friend who assists you in prayer.

Why do you need help in prayer?

Imagine someone asking you to lift a heavy weight of 200 kilograms or more. In your strength, you would struggle. Similarly, in prayer, your strength alone is not enough. You need the Holy Spirit to help you. He is your divine helper in prayer.

Romans 8:26 (NKJV): Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

Stay connected to the Holy Spirit and be filled with His presence. He will enrich your prayer life, transforming it into the most powerful weapon in the world. Amen.
