An Advent Exploration of Daniel

600 years before Jesus was born the first group of Jews were taken as captives to Babylon. There in a foreign land, with a violent king, Daniel and his friends were given glimpses of the future and witnessed miraculous intervention from the Lord. It was a time when warrior kings rose and fell and empires with them. But God showed Daniel that one Kingdom was coming that would never end because the King of that Kingdom was sent by God and would reign forever. As we prepare for Christmas and remember the first coming of the Lord Jesus we seek to live in service to Christ our King as we pray, “your kingdom come.”
