The first six chapters of Daniel detail the prophet’s life and faith in Babylon. The focus shifts in chapter 7 with a vision of four beastly empires emerging from a stormy sea, a heavenly courtroom presided over by the Ancient of Days, and a divine Son of Man gaining everlasting rule. The prophet’s vision was more than future information; it inspired perseverance. For believers facing confusion, instability, and opposition, the message is still relevant: worldly kingdoms are temporary. A King with an everlasting dominion will come, and His followers will join His eternal kingdom. Daniel’s vision urges believers to look beyond chaos and trust in Christ’s inevitable reign.
