“2 May grace and peace be multiplied to you
in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.” 2 Peter 1:2
Dear
Saints,
Today
we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Daniel Chapter 4; “Nebuchadnezzar
acknowledges the power of Jehovah. (1-18) Daniel
interprets his dream. (19-27)The
fulfilment of it. (28-37)
Verses
1-18 The beginning and end of this chapter lead us to hope, that
Nebuchadnezzar was a monument of the power of Divine grace, and of the riches
of Divine mercy… Let us diligently seek blessings which can never be taken
from us, and especially beware of pride and forgetfulness of God.
Verses
19-27 Daniel was struck with amazement and terror at so heavy a
judgment coming upon so great a prince, and gives advice with tenderness and
respect… And everlasting misery will be escaped by all who repent and turn to
God.
Verses
28-37 Pride and self-conceit are sins that beset great men. They are
apt to take that glory to themselves which is due to God only… Thus the Lord
knows how to abase those that walk in pride, but gives grace and consolation
to the humble, broken-hearted sinner who calls upon Him.” - Matthew Henry Concise.
King
Nebuchadnezzar speaking of his second dream (see Daniel 4:28-37) was humbled and his kingdom was restored; “37
Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, for all
his works are right and his ways are just; and those who walk in pride he is
able to humble.” Daniel 4:37 English Standard
Version (ESV). It is plain to see (see Psalm
75:5-7) all promotions come
from God. “4 Rejoice in the Lord
always; again I will say, Rejoice.” Philippians 4:4 ESV. Our righteousness is a gift from faith in Jesus (see
Philippians
3:1) in ourselves without
Jesus we would fall short. We are justified
by our faith in Jesus (see Romans
3:24) and not by any other
works. One day we will all fall down
on our knees before the Judgment seat of God (see Revelation
4:10) and give Jesus all the glory.
