Some of us may be here today, for the sake of the coming generation.
King Belshazzar didn’t know where to turn to get his answer about the writing on the wall (his wisest advisers were of no help), but the Queen Mother remembered Daniel.
11 There is a man in your kingdom who has the spirit of the holy gods in him. IN THE TIME OF YOUR FATHER he was found to have insight and intelligence and wisdom like that of the gods. YOUR FATHER, King Nebuchadnezzar, appointed him chief of the magicians, enchanters, astrologers and diviners. Daniel 5
When Daniel interpreted Nebuchadnezzar’s dream he seemed to be emotionally involved for him.
27 Therefore, Your Majesty, be pleased to accept my advice: Renounce your sins by doing what is right, and your wickedness by being kind to the oppressed. It may be that then your prosperity will continue (It eventually did and more).” Daniel 4
He had no relationship with this king and told him the writing had appeared because of his disrespect for God. Unlike all the other advisers, DANIEL KNEW GOD WAS THE SOURCE of the writing, but he told the King some things first.
Your father was given tremendous power and authority over many peoples. He did whatever he pleased until;
20 But when his heart became arrogant and hardened with pride, he was deposed from his royal throne and stripped of his glory. … until he acknowledged that the Most High God is sovereign over all kingdoms on earth and sets over them anyone he wishes.
22 ‘But you, Belshazzar, his son, have not humbled yourself, THOUGH YOU KNEW ALL THIS. 23 Instead, you have set yourself up against the Lord of heaven.
Belshazzar knew what had happened to his father and still went ahead and dishonoured the God of heaven. He was from another generation that should have known better.
Daniel did interpret the writing for him, his kingdom and his life were at an end. The feasting had ended in disaster for the Babylonians, their kingdom was divided and handed to a different king, Darius the Mede. It was another Suddenly, a judgment of God.
Daniel was rewarded exactly as the king had promised. Daniel 5:29 The king’s word had to be kept and it was certainly one of the last things he did. God’s word, the Great King, will also be kept and fulfilled in our day.
Daniel, the man of God, was enabled to reach down to the ruler in another generation and explain the purposes of God. It’s my belief that God will look for some to help those coming on the earth in these days.
