THE AMAZING PROPHECY OF DANIEL 2-
THE MYSTERY OF THE GREAT
IMAGE!
KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S
DREAM
Babylon,
the first world empire, was the greatest, richest, and most influential of
all the empires in the then known civilized world.
It also had the most
powerful king. This leader of men had managed by sheer force to put down his
enemies one by one until his kingdom stood as the Queen of nations.
In
the second year of his reign, King Nebuchadnezzar went to bed wondering
just how long his kingdom would endure. He, like other rulers, wanted to
know about the future. That night, God looked down from heaven and chose
to entrust this benevolent dictator with a look into the future.
DANIEL CHAPTER 2-
"VERSE 1. And in the second
year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith
his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him." 2. Then the king
commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the
Chaldeans, for to show the king his dream. So they came and stood before the
king."
When
the king woke up early from his fitful sleep, He was troubled. He had
experienced a dream, and he knew that it was something of great
importance, but he couldn't remember what it was! The Babylonians
placed great importance on dreams, and the king wanted to know the dream
and its interpretation. Of course, he had astrologers, magicians,
enchanters, and sorcerers. Surely they could tell him what it was all
about.
3 And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream.
