Questions for Reflection and Discussion:
1. We see through this chapter an example of God knowing and ruling through all times. Do you believe that God is all knowing and all powerful to rule in this world? How does that impact you life lived for God?
2. Daniel's response to Nebuchadnezzar's was one of peace, prayer, and praise. What are your responses to outside events in this world? Are they reflective of Christ and your dependence on Him, or are they often reactionary and self-dependent?
