The Supreme ‘Situation Room’ for
all the events—small and great—
that transpire on earth
is NOT in any nation’s capital or ‘centcom’ center …
BUT in the Heavenly ‘Throne Room’ of
the Most High God—the LORD of hosts—(1)
and in the ‘Prayer Rooms’ of the saints.(2)
(1) Psalm 2.4-6
He who sits in the heavens laugh; the Lord holds them in derision.
5 Then He will speak to them in His wrath, and terrify them in His fury, saying, 6 “As for me, I have set my King on Zion, my holy hill.”
(1) Psalm 115.3 & 135.6
115:3 Our God is in the heavens; He does all that he pleases.
135:6 Whatever the Lord pleases, He does, in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all deeps.
(1) Daniel 4.17, 25-26, 32, 34-35
4:17 This edict is by the resolution of the watchers, And the decision is a command of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High is the powerful ruler over the kingdom of mankind And gives it to whom He wishes And sets up over it the lowliest of men.
4:25-26 …until you know that the Most High is the powerful ruler over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whomever He wishes … your kingdom will endure for you after you know that it is Heaven that rules with power.
4:32 …until you know that the Most High is the powerful ruler over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whomever He wishes.
4:34-35 “But at the end of those days, I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes toward heaven, and my knowledge returned to me, and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever; For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, And His kingdom endures from generation to generation. 35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing, But He does according to His will in the host of heaven And among the inhabitants of earth; And no one can strike against His hand Or say to Him, ‘What have You done?’
(2) Daniel 9.3, 20-23 & 10.12-14
9:3 So I gave my face to the Lord God to seek Him by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes.
9:20 Now while I was speaking and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before Yahweh my God in behalf of the holy mountain of my God, 21 and while I was still speaking in prayer, then the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision previously, touched me in my extreme weariness about the time of the evening offering. 22 Then he made me understand and spoke with me and said, “O Daniel, I have now come forth to give you insight with understanding. 23 At the beginning of your supplications the word was issued, so I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed; so understand the message and gain understanding in what has appeared.
10:12 Then he said to me, “Do not be afraid, Daniel, for from the first day that you gave your heart to understand this and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to your words. 13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia was standing against me for twenty-one days; then behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me. Now I had been left there with the kings of Persia. 14 Now I have come to give you an understanding of what will happen to your people in the last days, for the vision pertains to the days yet future.”
(2) Revelation 5.8 & 8.3-5
5:8 And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.
8:3 And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer, and he was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar before the throne, 4 and the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel. 5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth, and there were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.
