I love head over heels but this song is a close second. I really wish I could experience the 80's. It seemed like a simple time with crazy styles and great music :D .

Today's Turning Point with David Jeremiah

Garden of Babylon: Still One God

The king answered Daniel, and said, "Truly your God is the God of gods, the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you could reveal this secret."
Daniel 2:47

Daniel 4:34-35

One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, was built by
Nebuchadnezzar II around 600 B.C.

The gardens were only one of the magnificent structures built by a king who considered himself a deity to be worshipped by his people.

But this king discovered that there is only one true God who alone is worthy of worship.

On more than one occasion, Nebuchadnezzar was brought to the realization that the God of Daniel had powers that Nebuchadnezzar and his wise men did not.

God revealed to Daniel the king's dreams and their meanings, and sentenced the king to a period of insanity as a correction for his prideful spirit.

After each of these encounters, Nebuchadnezzar confessed that "He does according to His will" (Daniel 4:35).

When you need wisdom, remember the king who was wise enough to build beautiful gardens, but not as wise as the one true God.

The heavens declare thy glory, Lord, in every star thy wisdom shines.
Isaac Watts

Welcome to your life
There’s no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
Turn your back on mother nature
Everybody wants to rule the world

It’s my own design
It’s my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world

There’s a room where the light won’t find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I’ll be right behind you

So glad we’ve almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world

I can’t stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you’ll never never never never need it
One headline why believe it ?
Everybody wants to rule the world

All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
