Living for God in Ungodly Times - Message 3 - Deciphering Dreams. Nebuchadnezzar had a troubling dream. He was anxious to know what it meant but he had to be sure that his wise men, magicians, and astrologers were not telling him what they thought he wanted to hear. So his plan involved a secret and a sentence. The wise men would not just tell Nebuchadnezzar what his dream meant, they would tell him what he had dreamed. The sentence was a decree that if they failed these men would all be put to death. All of the wise men would die if there was not one in their midst who could answer this riddle and solve the problem of the King's dream. Daniel and his friends were unaware of the problem. They were just new graduates of the training program and were not consulted for an answer to this problem. They did not even know that the King had asked for help. And yet, as part of the group of wise men, they were about to pay with their very lives for the failure of these others in the court of the King. As they were being rounded up to be executed Daniel asked what the hurry was and asked for time to see if he and his friends could help the King. They sought the Lord, and even facing the threat of death if they failed they rested. They went to sleep! As they were resting Daniel had a night vision; he had a dream. In that dream God revealed to him both Nebuchadnezzar's dream and its meaning. Daniel made this clear when he went to tell the King what he knew. He said that no man had solved the riddle, but that there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets.In seeking God's glory Daniel came to see in his vision that God was telling Nebuchadnezzar about the future.
