The Writing On The Wall

Ever wonder what happens when God draws a line in the sand—and we decide to step right over it? King Belshazzar hosts a party that goes beyond mere excess; he uses sacred temple vessels to toast false gods, setting the stage for a night of divine confrontation. For us today, it’s a bold warning about misusing what God calls holy, whether that’s our relationships, our integrity, or the resources He’s entrusted to us. What do we do when “the writing on the wall” suddenly appears in our lives—those moments we realize our choices have consequences? But here’s the real challenge: How do we stay reverent in a culture that mocks the sacred? And what might it look like to honour God in our daily decisions rather than saving faith for Sunday morning? Whether it’s in our schedule, finances, job, family, or how we treat the people around us, we’re called to re-examine our priorities and give God first place in our lives.
