Daniel 7 and 8 take us from the story of Daniel’s life into visions of beasts, kingdoms, rulers, and events that would unfold long after Daniel was gone.

Why did God show him all of this?

Not simply so we could make charts about the future. Prophecy shows us that the God who was faithful in the past will be faithful in the future.

In The Whole World in His Hands, we look at the four beasts of Daniel 7, the ram and goat of Daniel 8, the rise and fall of world empires, and the future Daniel was allowed to see. But all of those details ultimately lead us somewhere bigger: the Ancient of Days is still on His throne, and the Son of Man will receive a kingdom that will never be destroyed.

When the future feels uncertain, our hope isn’t found in figuring everything out. It’s found in knowing the One who already holds it.

Key Insights:

  1. Prophecy should produce security, not obsession.
  2. Don’t build your hope on something that won’t last.
  3. God’s faithfulness in the past gives us confidence for the future.
  4. God’s control over history changes how we face ordinary uncertainty.
  5. The destination of Daniel’s prophecy is Jesus.
