babyon around 604 BC this captivity of the citizens of Judah in Babylon lasted for 70 years as God had predicted through the Prophet Jeremiah during this period Daniel served in prominent positions in the governments of various Babylonian and Meadow Persian rulers including Nebuchadnezzar belazza Darius and Cyrus in the first year of darius's Reign around 539 BC Daniel came to understand and simply proved once again the prophecy of Jeremiah which predicted a 70-year captivity of his people the end of the 70 years was approaching at that time Daniel was probably 80 or 90 years old by

then he lived a long life but the Bible does not tell us how old he was when he died Daniel wrote his book in the fourth Century BC since the Book of Daniel contains so many detailed Prophecies of things that happened centuries later some Skeptics suggest that it is a fraud written much later in history however revealing the future is what God does see an example through Isaiah God declares remember the former things of old for I am God and there is no other I am God and there is none like me declaring the end

from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done saying my Council shall stand and I will accomplish all my purpose Daniel was a unic unics were men who were often castrated and frequently served in the administrations of Kings during Daniel's time some wonder if if Daniel was a unic because the Book of Daniel mentions that the young princes of Judah were under the supervision of ashpenaz the master of his unics this reference does not necessarily mean that the four young Jews were unics ashpenaz was a member of the Court whom the king knew

he could trust to perform important functions like instructing the princes in the ways of their host nation at the beginning of judah's Kingdom story we find hezekia king of Judah imprudently showing the treasures of his house to the envoys of the king of Babylon God inspired Isaiah to pronounce a prophecy about his descendants so Isaiah said to hezekia behold the days are coming when all that is in your house and that which your fathers have stored up till this day shall be carried to Babylon nothing shall be left says the Lord and some of your

own sons who will come from you whom you will father shall be taken away and they shall be unics in the Palace of the king of Babylon although Daniel hananiah mishael and Azariah are not specifically mentioned as descendants of Hezekiah the prophecy was made during the time when merodach baladan was King of Babylon this was approximately a 100 years before they departed for Babylon under King Nebuchadnezzar although there were restrictions in Israel regarding Unix Jesus Christ shows that even if it were Unix the attitude demonstrated by such people as Daniel and his three friends is

the same attitude that will allow us to be part of the kingdom of God for there are unics who have been so from birth and there are unics who have been made unics by men and there are unic who have made themselves unics for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven let the one who is able to receive this receive it throughout the centuries God has drawn people to be part of his kingdom who faced severe adversities Daniel was one of those people considered righteous being removed from his homeland and taken to a foreign country

probably in his adolescence it must have been traumatic Daniel's life however was to become an example for all of us Daniel's three friends the three Jewish friends of Daniel who were taken captive with him were hananiah mishel and Azariah the names of these three friends were changed by the Babylonians to Shadrach mesach and Abednego Daniel was given the name beles shaza these names Incorporated the names of Babylonian Gods but Daniel and his three friends decided to remain faithful to God this would be demonstrated several times in the events recounted in the Book of Daniel hello

Daniel a faithful man of God the Book of Daniel shows that he is a faithful man of God instead of defiling themselves with the food provided by King Nebuchadnezzar Daniel and his three friends chose to eat vegetables and drink only water God blessed their efforts and after a 10-day test their appearances were considered healthy by the steward who had been assigned under their care in another episode King Nebuchadnezzar threatened to destroy Dy all the wise men if they did not tell him the meaning of his dream Daniel and his friends asked for time so that

he and his three friends could plead with God In Prayer to reveal this information when God answered their prayer Daniel remembered to praise and thank God for giving them what they had asked for Daniel in the Lion's Den once the officials of King Darius conspired against Daniel they tried to find some kind of wrongdoing in his life but were unsuccessful because Daniel was an upright man so they realized that the only possible thing to find against Daniel was regarding his obedience to the law of the Lord they persuaded King Darius to issue a decree that

for a period of 30 days no one could pray to any God except to the king this decree was punishable by death Daniel learned about the decree but continued his daily routine of prayers opening the windows facing Jerusalem as usual kneeling and giving thanks to the Lord three times a day Daniel was caught in the intimate moment with the Lord in prayer in his room the 120 Governors and the two presidents immediately went to speak to King Darius then and there he realized the true meaning of that decree was not just to please the king

but a conspiracy to destroy Daniel King Darius was terrified at the magnitude and efficiency of his colleagues malfant Bound by the protocols existing in the court the king had no choice but to enforce the law and ordered Daniel to be thrown into the lion's den however Daniel's testimony was remarkable before all the king spoke to Daniel saying that the god whom he continually served might deliver him from the Lions the king sealed The Den with his ring making it clear that the sentence was irreversible he went to his quarters but could not sleep knowing that

Daniel was innocent at dawn the king arose and hurried to the Lion's Den as he approached the den he called out to Daniel in an anguished voice Daniel servant of the Living God has your God whom you serve continually been able to rescue you from the Lions Daniel replied my God sent his Angel and he shut the mouths of the Lions they have not hurt me because I was found innocent in his sight nor nor have I ever done any wrong before you your majesty the king commanded and those men who had accused Daniel were

brought and thrown into the lion's den they their children and their wives and before they reached the bottom of the den the Lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones Daniel and King Baza one day Baza gathered many Nobles and threw a great feast in the city of Babylon when he was very drunk he remembered that Nebuchadnezzar had taken several golden vessels from the Temple of Jerusalem when he destroyed it Bazar ordered these vessels to be brought to him the Nobles their wives and concubines drank from them and the party degenerated with everyone worshiping their

false gods this affron of God did not go unnoticed during the feast a human hand appeared out of nowhere and wrote some words on the wall when King Bazar saw this was so frightened that his knees knocked together Baza immediately called all the wise men and promised to make the one who could read the inscription the third in command in the Kingdom however no one could read what was written which left the king even more frightened then the queen came and told belshazzar about the Prophet Daniel who had interpreted some dreams for Nebuchadnezzar and had

great wisdom he called Daniel and asked him to read and interpret his inscription Daniel did not want any reward but he gave the interpretation Daniel explained that the words written on the wall were men men Teel parin men means numbered belshazzar's days of rain were numbered Teel means weighed Bel shazar had been weighed on the scales and found wanting Parson means divided belshazzar's Kingdom would be divided among other nations the mes and the Persians Daniel also rebuked Bazar for his arrogance and disrespect toward God the story of the Prophet Daniel is a testament to the

power of Faith resilience and obedience to God his life Journey marked by extraordinary events and divine interventions continues to Captivate and inspire people of Faith around the world Daniel's unwavering commitment to God serves as a Timeless example of righteousness and courage in the face of adversity leaving behind a lasting Legacy of faithfulness and devotion Bel shazar knew the history of his predecessor Nebuchadnezzar whom God had humbled for his arrogance in the episode where he ate grass like an ox for 7even years despite this belazza continued to do evil and abominable things before God now Bel

shaza would suffer the consequences when Baza heard the interpretation he did as he had promised and placed Daniel third in the Kingdom but that very night Babylon fell to the mes and the Persians the Babylonian Empire came to an end and belshazzar was killed with Daniel there are no records of the date and circumstances of his death but he possibly died in Susa at around 85 years old where there is a probable tomb where his body would be this place is known as Susa and that was the video beloved if you liked this video leave
