Set Your Heart
Daniel was praying, fighting a spiritual battle. You will be able to see that as you read the tenth chapter of Daniel.

We are looking at a recorded prayer of Daniel today. Daniel is confessing the sins of his people, his nation while they are held captive in Babylon.

Honoring the King of Heaven
For the most part chapter four of Daniel is the writing of Nebuchadnezzar, sharing his personal testimony of a tragic, yet humbling, and redeeming time of his life and reign as king of Babylon.

Sticks: Joseph and Judah
We have been looking at the prophecy of Ezekiel. Ezekiel was a captive in Babylon when he was given this prophecy. He spoke much of the nation's return to their homeland, but it would not take place until after a period of 70 years. In the Scripture and prophecy for today's study we see a …
