The God of Heaven :: January 26, 2025

Daniel chapter 2 is about “The God of Heaven.” I know that’s kind of obvious, and yet it’s also quite easy to miss. It’s easy to think that Daniel chapter 2 is about Daniel. And it is, and we need to dare to be like him. But it’s really not about Daniel. And it’s easy to think that Daniel chapter 2 is about King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. And it is, and we can learn a lot from watching him in this story. But it’s really not about King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. And it’s easy to think that Daniel chapter 2 is about King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream and what it means. And it is, and we need to give it our attention today. But it’s not even really about this dream.

It’s about the God of heaven. He exists, and He is the point of this whole story.
