april 29 : Daniel 7

"In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed."
It is always cool to see prophesies of Jesus years before Jesus came to the earth. Reading this passage God is very elusive in delivering his message. A lot of times we may misinterpret the meaning of God's messages to us. In this particular case I thought it was pretty weird how Daniel got someone in his dream to interpret his dream for him. He actually asked a usually inanimate object the meaning of his dream. There is no doubt that this son of man that comes from the clouds is Jesus Christ himself. Daniel knew of the coming way before it ever happened. Why would God show this to Daniel? I think that this was shown to Daniel mainly for us. God could have shown Daniel this dream to strengthen him, but I believe God wanted Daniel to share this with us in the future. This constitutes as evidence for Jesus being the Christ that the Jews have so longed and waited for. This is really kool =]
