“The Brain Box”
Saturday, April 5, 2025Key Verse
And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king enquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm.” Daniel 1:20
Text — Daniel 1:7-10
Message
Every car has a component known as brain box. It is an engine unit that controls the movement and activities of the car. It is so sensitive that the car will not start if the brain box is faulty. In reference to a human being, a brain box is someone that is very intelligent or brilliant.
Daniel and his three Hebrew friends were brain boxes. They were taken captives to Babylon and asked to serve in the palace of the king of Babylon. Daniel and his friends knew that wisdom and understanding come from God and they asked God for them. At the end when they were brought before king Nebuchadnezzar, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in his kingdom.
The secret to the three Hebrew children’s success was that they recognized God as the Source of all knowledge. If you want to become a brain box, you must first of all recognize God in your life by surrendering your life to Him; then you can ask for wisdom to be the brain box in your class and school and God will do it.
