“Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before” (6:10). Daniel’s decision to serve God did not change when laws changed. He was loyal to God both privately and publicly, so much so that those who opposed him recognized that he was “trustworthy and neither corrupt nor negligent” (6:4). Daniel believed that God alone possessed all “authority, glory, and sovereign power ... his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed” (7:13).

“But the holy people of the Most High will receive the kingdom and will possess it forever” (7:18). As followers of Christ, our choices are not based on shifting, temporary worldly powers, but on the forever kingdom of our Lord.
