Daniel 7:15-28
My closet stood at the end of my bed like a dark, looming cavern ready to devour me. The summer breeze blew through my window, bringing my curtains to life. I lost all control of my senses, convincing myself that there must be a monster in my closet. My childhood mind imagined all the horrors that could lie within it. Pulling the sheet up over my face, I called out in a voice of desperation, “Mommy, Daddy, I’m scared!” They were my heroes.
The monster in my closet had nothing on the monsters found in Daniel 7. In his vision, Daniel saw monsters resembling a lion, a bear, a leopard, and a multi-horned beast rise from a tumultuous sea. They represented nations on the hunt to destroy the people of God. The people needed a hero.
Daniel was pale-faced and horrified at what he had seen, but in the end he knew the truth; it had also been revealed in his vision. God wins. The holy people of God live to rule. No matter how dark, scary, or difficult today seems, remember that you have hero.
