You may have longed for the Lord to elevate you, but it feels like nothing is going according to your plans. Well, here’s a little encouragement: regardless of what you’ve been through, God will lift you at the right time, just like He did for Daniel! Picture this: Daniel was promoted to a position he never even dreamed of. While the king may have been the one to give him the title, it was the LORD who orchestrated the entire fulfillment of that dream and promotion.
Just think, if God hadn’t revealed the meaning of King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream to Daniel, would he have ever been elevated? He was lifted because God granted him the ability to interpret a dream that all the wise men of Babylon couldn’t make sense of! Daniel 2:48
[48]Then the king made Daniel great and gave him many great gifts, and he made him to rule over the whole province of Babylon and to be chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.
Now, let’s reflect on this teaching with some thought-provoking questions:
a) What position was Daniel given that surprised everyone?
b) If God hadn’t revealed the meaning of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream to Daniel, would he have been lifted?
c) What insights can we draw from this situation?
d) How does this teaching apply to our everyday lives?
Confession Prayer
Dear Lord Jesus, I declare and confess with faith that you are lifting me up in Jesus’ name. Amen!
