“Wisdom and Power”

“Wisdom and Power”

Blessings folk!

Daniel had a problem.

The King had a troubling dream.
None of the King’s soothsayers could tell nor interpret the dream.
The King was furious.
He demanded that all the wise men be killed, including Daniel and friends.

Daniel sought the mind of the Lord.
The Lord answered and gave the dream and interpretation.

Dan 2:20-23

Daniel said,
“Let the name of God be blessed forever and ever,
For wisdom and power belong to Him.

“It is He who changes the times and the epochs;
He removes kings and establishes kings;
He gives wisdom to wise men
And knowledge to men of understanding.

“It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things;
He knows what is in the darkness,
And the light dwells with Him.

“To You, O God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise,
For You have given me wisdom and power;
Even now You have made known to me what we requested of You,
For You have made known to us the king's matter.”

What do we learn about God?

  • Wisdom and power belong to Him
  • He changes the times and epochs
  • He removes kings and establishes kings
  • He gives wisdom to wise men
  • He gives knowledge to men of understanding
  • He reveals the profound and hidden things
  • He knows what is in the darkness
  • Light dwells in Him
  • He gave Daniel wisdom and power
  • He made known what Daniel requested
  • He made known the king’s matter

Wisdom and power.
God has it.
God gives it.

Why do we try to do anything in the power of the flesh and soul?

Oh yeah, Daniel, his friends and all the pagan “wisemen” of the king had their lives spared because Daniel sought the mind of the Lord.

What do you seek?
