Biblical Prophecy – Daniel – A Man Loved by God

June 28, 2022 by barry

I started this Bible Study of Daniel with mixed emotions. It has been one of the greatest adventures of my life. I have learned so much, not just about the Word of God, but about myself and my dependence on God. Many times when I did not know what to write on a verse, God gave me His wisdom on what I should write.

It is important to study the prophecies that Daniel wrote, but it’s also important to understand the life of Daniel. God loved Daniel and He cared for Daniel. God not only loved Daniel, Daniel loved God. The key to Daniel’ life was in Daniel 1:8 “But Daniel was determined not to defile himself;” he was committed to God. He was not intimidated by powerful people or frighted by difficult circumstances. What was the source of this man’s courage and commitment?

He believed in a Sovereign God. “Until you learn that the Most High rules over the kingdoms of the world and gives them to anyone he chooses.” (Daniel 4:25) He had a disciplined prayer life. He prayed three times in the day and he did not care who knew that he was praying. He studied the Word of God and believed it. “Daniel, learned from reading the word of the Lord, as revealed to Jeremiah the prophet, that Jerusalem must lie desolate for seventy years.” (Daniel 9:2) He had an understanding of spiritual warfare. Daniel 10 is the key chapter for prayer warriors, people who wrestle in prayer to seek God and tear down the strong holds of Satan. He realized that he had work to do. “The master was full of praise. ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let’s celebrate together!” (Matthew 25:21) He was tactful and considerate. Some people feel that the only way to change things in the political world is to blow up buildings or attack people. Daniel exerted considerable influence during the reigns of four kings. He had insight into human history. At the center of history is the nation of Israel. Why? Because Israel is God’s chosen vehicle to bring salvation to the world.

As we end our journey with Daniel, I pray that you have not just enjoyed these Bible Studies, but that God has changed your life, drawing you closer in your relationship with Him. Our next journey will be with John as we look at Revelation.
