#soap # Daniel 07 ## Title: The King Reigns Over All ## Scripture: (Daniel 7:9-10) “While I was watching, thrones were set up, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His attire was white like snow; the hair of his head was like lamb’s wool. His throne was ablaze with fire, and its wheels were all aflame. A river of fire was streaming forth and proceeding from his presence. Many thousands were ministering to him; many tens of thousands stood ready to serve him. The court convened, and the books were opened. (NET) ## Observation: The vision Daniel had was frightening. There were beasts coming up out of water, wars, and God’s people are under attack. However, what can be missed if we read too quickly is that the Lord is sitting on His throne. None of this affects His rule. John uses some of this imagery to describe Jesus in the book of Revelation. The King reigns supreme over it all. He is not worried or concerned. He is leading, guiding, and has already won. ## Application: When things look bad, trust the Lord is still on His throne. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for being that safe place that reminds us that You are in control of all things.
