Day 5 – Attiyq Yom

“I watched till thrones were put in place, and the Ancient of Days was seated; His garment was white as snow, and the hair of His head was like pure wool. His throne was a fiery flame, its wheels a burning fire; a fiery stream issued and came forth from before Him. A thousand thousands ministered to Him; ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him. The court was seated, and the books were opened” Daniel 7:9

“Ancient of Days” has been used inspirationally in art and music, denoting the Creator’s aspects of eternity combined with perfection. The attribute indicates the existence of God far beyond our comprehension of “ancient”. God was God before time as we know it came into existence. “The LORD Himself is God in heaven above and on the earth beneath; there is no other” Deuteronomy 4:39. Therefore He alone carries the final authority and judgment over all. I want to live in such a way that I may humbly minister to the Ancient of Days: my God.

Prayer: Father, we humbly come before You and thank You for being the Ancient of Days. That You alone are the Authority and Judge from the beginning to the end. Amen

PS… Just as God is Authority and Judge overall, we should remember that He is that in our situations too. When we pray and plead a case before Him, only He has the authority to judge accordingly. Take your situations before the feet of the Ancient of Days and trust His authority and judgment in your life.
