the inside fulfilled Isaiah prophecy to King hezekiah in 2nd Kings chapter 20.
Hezekiah had shown the representative of Babylon around his treasuries open to form an ally with them against the Assyrians. because he had house failed to trust in the lord it was prophesied that the treasure he had shown the Babylonians as well as some of his descendants that would be carry of to Babylon.
in the third year of jehoiakim reign, the Israelite were taken into exile.
to train the select young people for service in the King's Court Nebuchadnezzar made them learn the Babylonian culture language and literature.
they were given names link with Babylonians directives in place of Israelites names which were linked to yahweh.
this was an effort to indoctrinate the excise into the Babylonian culture and thereby disconnect them from their origin.
Daniel chapter 1 verse 3 to 7
And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring certain of the children of Israel, and of the king's seed, and of the princes; [4] Children in whom was no blemish, but well favoured, and skilful in all wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability in them to stand in the king's palace, and whom they might teach the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans. [5] And the king appointed them a daily provision of the king's meat, and of the wine which he drank: so nourishing them three years, that at the end thereof they might stand before the king. [6] Now among these were of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: [7] Unto whom the prince of the eunuchs gave names: for he gave unto Daniel the name of Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abed–nego.
the temptation to blend into the system of this world is always there but as God children we must always remember that rhough we are in this world we are not of the world.
Though we live in this world does not mean we are of this world. our generation is different from those of the world.
those in the world carries the gene of sin while you as a heavenly citizen Carry's the gene of your father in heaven which is the holiness Gene.
don't let the world to influence you so that you can compromise your faith. if you do so, your heavenly father will not be happy with you. and if God is not happy with someone, it is the start of disaster waiting ahead.
Be careful not to let the world overshadowed the faith you have in Christ. Every time the world is finding a way to do so but you yourself will be the one to decide not to let it happen
as much as we want to enjoy and be comfortable with or in the world we should not get carried away is to forget about country of origin.
we are citizens of heaven we are a surgeon in this world and we will return home one day.
the scripture says do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind then you will be able to test and approve world called me is is good please and perfectly will. (Romans 12:2)
the wise always remember that they are not of this world.
as you're safe in what ways are my conforming to this world.
