Sing Praise to God and Highly Exalt Him Forever.

Homily for December 1, 2017.


“And to him was given dominion and glory and kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him...” Daniel 7:22.

Today we read about the vision of Daniel. The key to understanding this vision of Daniel is to take not of the phrase “Son of Man.”

When we read the Gospels we would notice Jesus often referred to himself as “Son of Man” an indication that not only was he aware of Daniel’s prophecy, he was deliberately revealing himself to us as the Messiah.

Dear friends, we cannot completely understand God. He is a mystery beyond every comprehension and greater than what anyone can think of. Rather than try to understand him, our Psalmist says “Sing praise to God and Highly Exalt Him Forever.”

In our Gospel passage this morning, Jesus gives us another reason why we should always praise God. Even if heaven and earth pass away, my words will not pass away.

Let us pray: Lord Jesus, draw me nearer to you always. Amen.

Happy New Month. Be Happy. Live Positive. Have Faith. It is well with you. (Friday of the 34th week in Ordinary Time. Bible Study: Daniel 7:2-14 and Luke 21:29-33).
