“And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky above; and those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever.” Daniel 12:3 (ESV)
We may not fully understand all that these words mean, but they do convey an impression that is meaningful. Those who are wise are those who have true insight by faith in God's Word. This does not apply only to robed leaders and skillful preachers but to others, to us. The Promise here is that those who trust the Lord and follow Him closely have a bright and glorious future. Included in this is the work of proclaiming the righteousness of God so that others may be persuaded to believe. We know that our God is a God of Glory. Heaven is a glorious place and God is planning to share that glory with us if we continue following Him and doing His will here on earth. God will know it and will share His glory with us and we will become like stars reflecting the glory of God. The faithfulness of our witness will determine our eternal capacity to reflect God's Glory. Be wise in God's promises today.
