"You were watching until a stone was cut out without hands, and it struck the image at its feet of iron and clay and crushed them. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed all at once, and they became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that no trace of them was found. And the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth." (Daniel 2:34-35) This dream was given to the world leader, king of Babylon for a reason. God was seeking to get Nebuchadnezzar’s attention. Daniel was able to see God’s heart and interpret the dream. All kingdoms and governments since creation to Armageddon are included in that image and all will crumble. Do not trust human government!! Daniel sees a Stone cut out of Heaven crushing all the kingdoms of the earth. This Stone is Jesus. He was cut out by the Father to come to mankind, live the human life, go to the cross, resurrect from death and satisfy the Father. He is the stone the Jews rejected and stumbled upon. They were offended at the idea that He was the Messiah. He is the Cornerstone for all believers. We line up with Him and become living stones for His eternal holy habitation that will culminate into the New Jerusalem. And here in Daniel 2 we see Him as a crushing stone that will destroy all kingdoms of the earth which will visibly be gathered at Armageddon. How are you related to this Stone? Are you stumbled, offended by Him? Will He crush you as you stand with mankind against Him? Or are you joined with Him, allowing Him to cut and form you to line up with Him for Gods building?
