Devotional: Daniel 2:25-30

Today’s passage: Daniel 2:25-30

Helpful thoughts:

  • Arioch declares his victory before the king, “I have found…”
  • In a moment when Daniel could also seek to receive glory, he points Nebuchadnezzar to the real hero, the Lord.
    • In pointing to the need for God’s intervention, Daniel agrees with what the previous wise men declared from verses 10-11.
    • What the wise men and false gods of the Babylonians were proven powerless to do, God was able.
  • Daniel assumes the role of a servant, not a superstar.

Questions to consider:

  1. Before Daniel even begins to relay the dream and its meaning, what all has he taught King Nebuchadnezzar?
  2. Who should the king have been most impressed by after hearing what is to come?
  3. Why would it be ironic to read a passage like this and go no further than to simply be enamored with Daniel?  To whom was Daniel trying to point the king?
