This Sunday evening we continue our series in Daniel, by reflecting on chapter 2 and the vision God gives to Nebuchadnezzar. Nebuchadnezzar was the most powerful man in the world and had built the empire of Babylon, but God reminds him as well as his people that all earthly kingdoms will eventually fall before the Lord’s kingdom. There continues to be kingdoms and powers that rise and fall in our world, and we live in them and among them. Sometimes they work to our advantage, and other times to our detriment. No matter our situation, God reminds us that we can live with the knowledge that the kingdom of God is here and coming into the world in Christ, and will outlast every other power.
