Sixth Day: Review Daniel 2, concentrating on verses 36-49.
1. a. As Daniel began to interpret the dream, how did he point out the power of God in heaven to the king? (Daniel 2:37-38a)
b. Personal: How often do you take advantage of opportunities to give glory to God and recognize His power, as Daniel did before the king? If this is difficult for you, why not pray now for boldness and the leading of the Holy Spirit for yourself in this area?
2. From Daniel 2:38b-43, describe what type of kingdom each part of the statue seen in the dream symbolized.
3. a. What did Daniel tell the king was the meaning of the destruction of the statue in the dream? (Daniel 2:44-45)
b. Challenge: The kingdom that “will never be destroyed” is the eternal kingdom of God, built on the ruins of the sinful empires of man,10 and Jesus Christ is the King. What do you learn about this in the following verses?
Luke 20:17-18
Acts 4:10-11
Revelation 11:15
4. How did Nebuchadnezzar respond to Daniel’s God in Daniel 2:47?
5. In what ways did the king honor Daniel? At the request of Daniel how did the king also honor Daniel’s three prayer partners? (Daniel 2:48-49)
6. Personal: Are you looking forward to the time when Jesus Christ will return to earth in triumph over all human kingdoms? His kingdom is already established—it is only for a limited time that God continues to allow human kingdoms to exist on this earth. Read Revelation 15:4 and 17:14. Write down how you feel about that day when Christ will return.
