17 This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.

It can be frustrating when we feel like we've been struggling with the same problem our entire life. The Scriptures are repetitive too, and they reflect the reality that so much of life seems to repeat itself. Our job is to find one way to defeat our enemy, then use that strategy again and again as we win over our temptations and dig deeper into ourselves to take the evil out at its root.

(Referencat: Daniel 4:10-37)

Daniel

  
Daniel in the den of lions, in the Museum des Beaux Arts, Caen.

The book of Daniel follows after Ezekiel in the Old Testament. Daniel was a prophet during the early part of the captivity of the Jews in Babylon. (His Babylonian name, given to him by King Nebuchadnezzar, was Belteshazzar.) The first half of the Book of Daniel tells the story of Daniel and three friends, and then Daniel’s rise to prominence under Kings Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, and Darius. The second half is prophecy. In the internal sense of the Word, Daniel represents the Lord at His advent. Daniel's captivity, and the actions of the Babylonian kings that he interacts with, show the state of the Israelitish church at that time.
