Daniel Chapter Two

Read Today's Passage

I love how Nebuchadnezzar really puts his astrologers and wise men to the test. If only more people today would put psychics and mediums to the test, and not be so susceptible top the power of suggestion. And is not death a fitting punishment for men who pretend to possess the powers of God? And before Daniel goes to explain the dream, he and his friends pray for wisdom in interpreting the dream, and SLEPT ON IT! Not a rash decision that required God to show up at the last minute, but allowing God to work in His time.

And after Daniel had interpreted the dream, the king was so thankful that he granted Daniel's request to elevate his friends' status, an not his own.

There is a lot we can learn from Daniel in this one passage today. Wow.
