The book of Daniel is about how God’s people are to live during the times of the Gentiles. Daniel was one of the first exiles to Babylon, where the Jews fell under Gentile domination because of their sin and rebellion against God. Daniel’s book is designed to teach how the entire period of Gentile rule—from Daniel’s day to the second coming of the Messiah to set up his kingdom—should be viewed. God used the nations to bring judgment and discipline to Israel. In his own life, Daniel also illustrated how the people of God were to live, showing what faithfulness to God and his kingdom agenda looked like even when undergoing his discipline. This book includes prophecy, as well as prayer, apocalyptic visions, and insight into spiritual warfare—all of which teach that God’s people are under his sovereignty even when circumstances on earth do not appear to be in their favor. Daniel shows that the God of heaven rules on earth, even when earth seems to be out of control. 5 Lessons from the Book of Daniel - Tony Evans #shorts #1John #leadership #tonyevans _____________________________________________________________________________ ▶ Do you know Jesus as your Savior? https://tonyevans.org/know-jesus-christ/ ▶ Stream Sermons: https://tonyevans.org/podcast/ ▶▶ Free Sermon App: https://subsplash.com/tonyevans/app/ ▶▶ DONATE: https://give.tonyevans.org/the-alternative/donation ▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drtonyevans/ ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtonyevans/ ▶ Are you a preacher?
