    Stand Up Until One is Convinced and Converted

    (A) Get Ready: Daniel Chapter 1: What Must I Do To Reach One?

    1. Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were the four young lads inCAPTIVITY in Babylon.

    2. In order to be recognized as somebody in an unfavorable situation,

    Daniel Purpose or Determined Not To Defile himself.

    3. Thats the starting point for every believer. With such determination YOU

    can influence the hardest skeptics of the world and at the hardest

    ground.

    1. We have to have a purpose in our heart like Daniel and the three lads Shadrach,

    Meshach, and Abednego

    2. Purpose with Determination is our start our purpose is to reach out for one and win that

    one for Jesus. Make your one a disciple. Your new disciple then follows the same Purpose

    and Determination. The end result of 2010 is YOU HAVE A NETWORK of THREE.

    3. Begin today and plan to see the result in December 2010. That is your ministry call and youhave justHEARD THE SOUND OF THE TRUMPET.

    4. We may not be in Babylon of Daniel but as far as evangelism is concerned we are

    definitely under siege!

    5. You may askWhat siege? An Imaginary Mental siege! Expressed in FEAR (false

    expectation appearing real). FEAR is our modern Babylon! We are in BABYLON!.

    6. To conquer our Babylon (fear), we must haveA REAL PURPOSE andDETERMINATION.

    7. In this way you will be NOTICED by the skeptics and unbelievers. Remember if you are

    not noticed and recognized as uniquely different, you are not much of an influence!

    8. You may be mocked, you may be laughed at BUT SOON YOU WILL BE THE One WHO

    WILL IMPACT the PACK of skeptics!

    Chapter 2:

    (B) When You Are Ready God Is More Then Ready!

    1. Daniels assignment from God began after he has proven his heart purpose and

    determination.

    2. Daniels ONE was King Nebuchadnezzar the toughest NUT to crack!

    3. Similarly, Your Assignment from God Begins with your Purpose and

    Determination of what you have been challenged for 2010

    4. In the case of Daniel it was a case of his powerful boss having a very difficult

    problem and no one can find a solution.

    5. This is where God used Daniel to step in.6. God gave the answer through Daniel.

    7. The dream was identified and interpreted: This was a Gospel Message regarding

    the coming a JESUS the ROCK! It talks about all the powerful nations of the

    world were brought to nothing by Jesus.

    8. In todays context, it is like sharing about the END of THE AGE or the SECONDCOMING OF OUR LORD JESUS.

    Chapter 2:46-47; 48-49

    (C) Several steps Away from UNBELIEF(Dan 2:46) Then King Nebuchadnezzar threw himself down before Daniel and

    worshiped him, and he commanded his people to offer sacrifices and burn sweetincense before him.

    (Dan 2:47) The king said to Daniel, "Truly, your God is the greatest of gods, the Lord

    over kings, a revealerof mysteries, for you have been able to reveal this secret.

    (Dan 2:48) Then the king appointed Daniel to a high position and gave him many

    valuable gifts. He made Daniel ruler over the whole province of Babylon, as well as chief

    over all his wise men.

    (Dan 2:49) At Daniel's request, the king appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

    to be in charge of all the affairs of the province of Babylon, while Daniel remained in the

    king's court.

    Your One Is But Several Steps Away From UNBELIEF1. Did Nebuchadnezzar believe? From the verses we have just read: The answer is

    - Yes and No. Meaning he was only moving towards believing. Several steps

    away from unbelief!

    2. His need was met by God. He was happy. He was grateful more to Daniel thanGod: Enough to give a promotion to Daniel. Even enough to promote Daniels

    three friends.

    3. Like your Nebuchadnezzar God may answer his needs but NOT necessary a

    genuine believer at this stage. He may be impressed with YOU and your God. He

    may be grateful for what you have done. But I am not sure that he is genuinely

    converted as in the case of King Nebuchadnezzar.

    4. Nebuchadnezzar has yet to reach the point that he admits that Jehovah is the

    ONE and ONLY God!

    5. He was impressed by what Daniel did for him through Jehovah.

    6. He acknowledged that Jehovah exits.

    7. He is several steps from UNBELIEF

    HUMAN NATURE:

    1.But human mind forgets very fast. Very often something which appears immenselyimportant to us has no place in our minds shortly afterwards.

    2.That is why he at the end of chapter 2 had some profound sense of God, but does notappear to have any at the beginning of Chapter 3

    THIS IS HOW HE FORGETS1.King Nebuchadnezzar made a gold statue to be worshiped by all.

    2.He seemed to confess his belief in God but looks more like Lip-Service In otherwords, his words from the mouth have not touched his heart.

    3.His WILL is not submissive to the words he said (Like a little child: TristanI must

    obey. I must not rebel. And he did what he wanted)

    Chapter 3 Proves This Point

    (D) Shadrachs, Meshachs and Abednegos Personal Testimony1. This Proves Where He was After The First Encounter:

    (Dan 3:1) King Nebuchadnezzar made a gold statue ninety feet tall and nine feet wide

    and set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon.

    2. King Nebuchadnezzar like them enough to give a second chance:

    (Dan 3:14) Nebuchadnezzar said to them, "Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach, and

    Abednego, that you refuse to serve my gods or to worship the gold statue I have

    set up?

    (Dan 3:15) I will give you one more chance to bow down and worship the statue I havemade when you hear the sound of the musical instruments. But if you refuse, you

    will be thrown immediately into the blazing furnace. And then what god will be

    able to rescue you from my power?

    3. From Daniel 3:16- 30 we see the testimonies of these three lads. They said what theymeant and meant what they said. A Powerful Testimony: Through the Fiery Furnace

    (E) Several Steps From BELIEF

    (Dan 3:28) Then Nebuchadnezzar said, "Praise to the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and

    Abednego! He sent His angel to rescue His servants who trusted in Him. They defied the

    king's command and were willing to die rather than serve or worship any god excepttheir own God.

    (Dan 3:29) Therefore, I make this decree: If any people, whatever their race or nation or

    language, speak a word against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, they

    will be torn limb from limb, and their houses will be turned into heaps of rubble. There is

    no other god who can rescue like this!

    (Dan 3:30) Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to even higher

    positions in the province of Babylon.

    1. Compare to the first time his second confession is even clearer in terms of

    recognizing God as the greatest God.

    2. He admits that no other God can deliver or recue like He can.

    3. He was on the verge of saying that there is no other God~

    4. Yet from his talk there is no indication that he has come to the point of bowing toJehovah and worshipping Him.

    5. In his heart of hearts he remains as stubborn as before!

    6. So far God has knocked twice on the door of his heart twice it was jarred open. But

    the next time God is about to break the hinges that the door cannot be closed again!

    7. GOD IS DETREMINED to enter his heart. All because of the four Champions whodare to STAND UP TO HAVE A PURPOSE.

    8. First could be a general approach to bring your Nebuchadnezzar friend to Jesus. He

    may be impressed. He may be grateful. He even thanked you with appreciations of

    all kind. But remember he may be ONLY several steps away from his UNBELIEF.

    9. Second could be your personal testimony: Now he may be several steps from

    BELIEVING!

    (F) A Genuine Believer - Your First Convert

    Your Nebuchadnezzar Becomes A New Convert1. The first general sharing leads to the second personal testimony which leads to

    Nebuchadnezzar to a PERSONAL ENCOUNTER WITH GOD.

    Chapter 4

    This was written after the event of what happened to Nebuchadnezzar.

    (Dan 4:1) King Nebuchadnezzar sent this message to the people of every race andnation and language throughout the world: "Peace and prosperity to you!

    (Dan 4:2) "I want you all to know about the (SIGNS) miraculous signs and wonders

    (Wonderful Effects) the Most High God has performed for me.

    1. God had worked in my life with miraculous events and wonderful result!

    (Dan 4:3) How great are His signs (Miraculous Acts), how powerful His wonders! (How

    wonderfully Effective) His kingdom will last forever, His rule through all generations.

    2. He had done the same for the lives of my people

    He KNEW the TRUTHHe ACKNOLEDGED the TRUTH

    He, now appeared to be BOWING or WORSHIPPING GOD

    He is no longer comparing Jehovah with other gods. His words do not admit

    that there are any others.

    A GREAT CHANGE HAS TAKEN PLACE for Nebuchadnezzar

    (G) In The Process of Getting A Genuine Convert

    1. This process of getting a genuine convert is very important because unless a

    person is genuinely converted it is hard for you to make a disciple of Jesus.

    2. You should notice where your friend is at by his speech, his behavior, his

    willingness to obey Gods word and his worship of God as the ONLY God.

    3. In the process you SHOULD OBSERVE A PECULIAR STREAK IN YOUR

    FRIEND.

    4. In the case of Daniels Nebuchadnezzar IT WAS PRIDE. This takes TIME to be

    broken down.5. Lets look at Nebuchadnezzars Pride

    (Dan 4:34) "After this time had passed, I, Nebuchadnezzar, looked up to heaven. My

    sanity returned, and I praised and worshiped the Most High and honored the One who

    lives forever. His rule is everlasting, and His kingdom is eternal.

    (Dan 4:35) All the people of the earth are nothing compared to Him. He does as He

    pleases among the angels of heaven and among the people of the earth. No one can

    stop Him or say to Him, 'What do you mean by doing these things?'

    (Dan 4:36) "When my sanity returned to me, so did my honor and glory and kingdom.

    My advisers and nobles sought me out, and I was restored as head of my kingdom, with

    even greater honor than before.

    (Dan 4:37) "Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and glorify and honor the King of heaven.

    All His acts are just and true, and He is able to hum ble the proud.

    And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do

    to inherit eternal life?(Luk 10:26)

    He said to him, "What is written in the law? What is your reading of it?

    (Luk 10:27)

    So he answered and said, "'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL

    YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH, AND WITHALL YOUR MIND,' and 'YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.'

    (Luk 10:28)

    And He said to him, "You have answered rightly; do this and you will live.

    Then Jesus answered and said: "A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho,

    and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed,

    2.Adam from Grace: He Disobeyed God and ate the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of

    Psalm 231. This is one of the most common used passage and is known by most

    people, because it is used in almost every funeral service!

    2. It is an APPROPRIATE passage for our purpose, simply because as a

    new convert we are MEANT TO DIE TO SELF!

    3. The faster we die to self the greater we begin to experience the

    ABUNDANT LIFE in God.

    4. (John 12:24) Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls

    into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces muchgrain.

    (A)

    (Psalm 23:1)

    The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

    1. Once Born Again your journey begins with a Condition and a Promise

    2. God has a desire for his children and man has a deep longing

    3. God wants you to have him as your shepherd he wants to make things happen for

    you, he wants to lead you, he wants to guide you and he wants to bless you

    1. Many new converts have heard of testimonies of how God

    blesses others including your friend. The SALVATION is the

    greatest testimony that NO ONE CAN deny or take away

    from you.

    2. God ANSWERS prayers for many reasons, but I believe He

    WANTS you to know that once you have made him the

    shepherd, HE HAS A RESPONSIBILITY for your SOUL

    3. Learn quickly to CAST your BURDEN and CARE upon HIM.

    4. Learn to TRUST in HIM because HE will NOT FORSAKE

    YOU or FAIL you.

    5. He is a COVENANT KEEPING GOD.

    1. The first important lesson to make known to our new convert is that he must learn

    from day one to DEPEND ON GOD not on man. God never changes but men do!

    God never disappoints but men do! God is reliable but men sometimes fail us!

    2. God has a DESIRE and man has a DREAM.

    3. God COMMANDS Man DEMANDS

    4. God desires us to make Him the Good Shepherd. Man dreams of a day that he may

    live in comfort!

    5. When Gods PURPOSE is MET Our NEEDS will be MATCHED

    1. God gives this reminder again in Mat 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and

    His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

    2. I know the ultimate dream of man is he shall lack nothing - All the things the gentiles

    seek what to eat, what to drink, and what to wear In other words ALL YOURNEEDS to be met! God says to you dont worry, dont be anxious JUST SEEK HIS

    KINGDOM FIRST

    3. It does not mean you do nothing when you seek, you find and you must do

    according to what he says.

    1. The Condition you must make him your shepherd

    2. The Promise You lack nothing

    3. If the Lord is your shepherd your first key step is: FOLLOW as Jesus said, Come

    follow Me

    4. When you follow the shepherd you will follow his appointed and anointed leaders.5. Leaders lead and followers follow follow well and lead well.

    6. It takes Two to Tango God has a promise and you have a responsibility.

    7. Leaders got to lead and disciples must follow their leaders.

    8. The problem is some are good leaders called by God, some are self-appointed

    leaders and others are corrupted leaders9. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you

    Point 1:

    1.Your NEEDS are Met when he is your shepherd

    2.And All This Will Be Added Unto You when you seek him first.

    3.When your Needs are metdont just stay there and hoping for more needs to be

    met! It is like what Jesus said, The poor will always be there your needs will alwaysbe there!

    4.He meets your needs so you know that he is with you and he is your shepherd.

    5.It is like the Israelites in the wilderness God met their needs they kept complaining

    We want quails! We want water! God kept meeting their demands BUT they DID NOT

    SEE and KNOW their GOD! So many died before they could enter the Promised Land.

    They did not follow the shepherd

    BIBLE two questions:

    2. Are you thirsty? Are you hungry?1. Like the FOUR LEPERS in 2 Kings They were hungry enough to die

    they were disadvantaged people they smell because of decaying flesh

    they looked terrible they were outcasts. BUT they were HUNGRY and

    THIRSTY! YES EVEN TO DIE!
