Identity issues are popular topic in the world today, and in this story Daniel has to choose his identity: is he a Jew or is he Babylonian? He was born Jewish, but the Babylonians were trying to convert him to to one of them, and despite being offered a better life as a Babylonian he chose to stay with the identitiy that God gave him. It wasn't an easy choice, but in the end it actually worked out better for him. The same can be true for us. When we live the way God says we should, our true identity will shine brighter than anything the world can give us.

10250. 'And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying' means further perception as a result of enlightenment from the Lord through the Word. This is clear from the explanation above in 10215, where the same words occur. The reason why further perception is meant is that when something new is being revealed and decreed, those words are used, see 10234.
