Daniel 19

Enter Daniel 6  . Let’s start with verse 1. [It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;² And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage.³ Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.⁴ Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.⁵ Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God.⁶ Then these presidents and princes assembled together to the king, and said thus unto him, King Darius, live for ever.⁷ All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors, and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.⁸ Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.]

      King Belshazzar made Daniel his third ruler. Daniel was a type of the Holy Spirit, right? But here King Darius now made Daniel the second ruler.  He’s the foremost of the three prime ministers. And Daniel appears in chapter 6 as a shadow of Jesus Christ. Now, the time of the Gentiles began in the time of Babylon.  The time of the Gentiles is called the time of the Gentiles, when Jerusalem was burned down and the Gentiles usurped the kingdom of God. The first kingdom in the time of the Gentiles was Babylon, the golden head that King Nebuchadnezzar dreams about. Babylon, founded by Nebuchadnezzar, who had great and brilliant power, disappeared after about 67 years. How many years for U.S.? It’s been less than 300 years. No big deal. It disappears. But a country like the Maya had been around for over 2,000  years. That’s a mystery. Nations like the Maya and Inca Empires had existed for thousands of years. Then, suddenly, it disappeared overnight. God can do that. No matter what the nations of this world are buzzing about, and whatever they do, if God speaks to them, they shall all disappear. The golden head was Babylon, and now there appeared silver that was less than gold. Chest and arms from the statue of the god. During the time of King Nebuchadnezzar, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego did not bow down to the golden image, but went into the fire and were saved by God. But now, in fact, when many people go to North Korea, almost 99.9 percent of them have to bow down to the statue of Kim Il Sung. No matter how many pastors there are, there are no exceptions. This is true. But how many people didn’t bow down. One pastor who I know didn’t bow down. But when she was sleeping in her hotel room, something was wrong. So when she woke up, something came out. She felt like she was going to die in charge of it. I have heard such testimonies. Sometimes, some people don’t. But I can’t do it if I go. So Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon was an absolute ruler. That was the end of it. Where’s the law. He was the law. Once upon a time, people like Louis XIV of France said that I am the law, means what I am saying is the law. This is an absolute monarch. But this Medes could not do as they pleased. It had 120 dignitaries under three prime ministers. Speaking of these days, in a way, it’s like a member of Congress, right? That’s where the laws are made. If they make a law, the king just signs it. So the king’s power was much lower than that of Babylon, right? Here comes the word 120 dignitaries, right? When King Solomon dedicated the temple, 120 priests served the Lord there.  God’s glory came like a cloud, and they couldn’t stand up and collapsed. Another 120 disciples were waiting for the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost in Mark’s upper room. These 120 disciples. These are all shadows, aren’t they?

      It can be said that the three prime ministers who govern the kingdom are a type of the Holy Trinity of God. Daniel is first. Jesus Christ is the beginning and the chief in all things. Colossians 1:18 says that. He is the beginning of all things and the chief in all things.  Daniel was the chief under the king in that very kingdom. And just as Christ was with the transcendent  Spirit, the Holy Spirit, so was this Daniel with the Holy Spirit. That’s why King Darius gave him to rule over the whole country.  According to the Bible, all knees, whether in heaven, on earth, or under the earth, were made to bow to the name of Jesus. He said: The first type of Jesus Christ was Isaac and Joseph. In the case of Joseph, Pharaoh appointed him as the second ruler over the whole earth. And Pharaoh said, Without you, no man would lift up his hand or his feet in all the land of Egypt. When Joseph went, everyone knelt down. This is how every knee kneels before the name of Jesus Christ. And the tongue confesses that Jesus is Lord. When will it happen? When the Lord comes, yes. Not now. At that time, even those in hell call on the Lord. But it’s too late. After all, Daniel is the perfect type of Jesus Christ here in chapter 6. It doesn’t say that he died for other sinners, but apart from that, he is a perfect example of Jesus Christ. Now, here Daniel has a spirit that excels, and the king has set him up. How did I know?  When King Darius conquered Babylon, he must have heard the details of the country. I mean, you already knew Daniel, right? I knew, so as soon as he came to the table, I called Daniel and set him up. That’s why I said something to Daniel later when he went into the lions’ den. Your God, whom you serve, will deliver you. O dear servant! Daniel, your God whom you serve… He clearly acknowledged God. We can see that he did not believe in God, but he acknowledged God. Now, this is how the law was enacted. Because the law was enacted, it must be enforced. In verse 4, we read that the prime ministers and dignitaries were trying to find excuses to oppose Daniel. But they didn’t find any excuse.  When Jesus came to this earth, when He came as King, the Pharisees, the Sadducees, and the scribes tried to grab a pod from Jesus, and why? Because Jesus came as King. When Jesus is made king, they all perish. Therefore, they plotted to kill Jesus in order to take over this kingdom with Rome in order to take over it to the end.  They scrambled to find out if there was anything wrong with Jesus or if there was anything wrong with Him. The theme of this Bible is the kingdom. Jesus Christ is not coming to the earth;

Those who preach the wrong word do not want to take the kingdom from themselves. With whom? With Rome. The Pharisees, Sadducees, and scribes of old, along with Rome, eventually flattered King Herod and lived like birds to get something out of that kingdom. Likewise, there are many churches today, but those who do not preach that the Lord will actually come and reign in the Millennial Kingdom, those who deny it, are now trying to do something with the rest of Rome, to enjoy it. The Bible says that they will go over to the Great Tribulation and take Babylon the Great, Rome the Great, and do so. That’s why the theme of the Bible is the kingdom. It’s not our salvation. The kingdom is the theme. And the second is our salvation. Isn’t there a kingdom for us to get into? That’s why the kingdom is a key theme. As I was studying the Word, I realized that this topic is the kingdom. Now that I have realized this, I have no hesitation in talking about the kingdom,  the kingdom. Jehovah’s Witnesses gather at the Kingdom Hall, and it doesn’t matter what they do. Nowadays, people are all deceived by cults, and when they say it, they can’t talk about it, even if it’s in the Bible. You don’t know how stupid this is. Rather, we need to evangelize them. You have to enlighten them. But instead they don’t say what the cults said, in a way that people who are surprised by Zara are surprised to see the pot lid. Are you saved? I can’t. Because of the Salvationists. Are Salvationists saved? That’s why they’re called Salvationists. Are you saved? Of course  I have to do it, but I can’t because of those people. I’m afraid I’ll hear about that. Also, I can’t even talk about the rapture. The old raptures, in 1992  or so, were all over the place. That’s why even if you just talk about the rapture, you can’t even talk about it because you’re not talking about those people at the time.  You have to be bold in speaking up, right? How much of a heresy is this when you say this? It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if they catch a excuse. Satan is now stealing God’s children from heaven. If you sin, look, that person has sinned. If you keep doing that, you can’t do it, because it’s set by God’s law, the wages of sin is death, and if you commit sin, you have to be punished by it. Repent quickly, He will wash you away. That’s how it goes. Don’t be foolish enough to not know this. They found an excuse. Jesus is the King, so that’s great. How is it that there are two Suns? Caesar is king. Yes, They sued. If you look at it, anyone who calls himself a king is Caesar, Caesar, right? He speaks against Caesar. That’s what I said. And we have no king but Caesar.  What do you say now? There is no king except Him in the Vatican, who is called the Holy Father, and everyone is in the WCC. History repeats itself. That’s why you can’t look at yourself when you read the Bible. Prime Ministers and dignitaries

In the scene where we try to find an excuse to oppose Daniel regarding the kingdom, we can clearly see the nature of this demon. You who were devils in Jesus’ day were born of your father, the devil. The devil is in you. That’s what Jesus said, right? What’s that property?  They don’t want the kingdom of Jesus Christ to come. Why did the Lord  appear 2000 years ago? You made King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon dream of a golden image. The head is gold. The chest and arms are Mede Persia, then the belly is of brass and Greece, and the legs are of iron, and Rome. Then the iron was divided into ten kingdoms. Then a stone popped up and hit its toe. Who is the stone that was cut out? Isn’t Jesus Christ, a mountain stone? That’s why He appeared in the Age of Legs,  the Age of Iron, and the Roman Age. At that time, he was preparing to float. What do you do to destroy the kingdoms of the world? What must be done to bring down the ten nations under the rule of the Antichrist? First, we must get rid of the devil who rules over the Antichrist. Therefore, in order to destroy the devil, the Lord brought all the sins of the world, all the sins, past, present, and future, unto the Lord, in order to destroy the devil, who has the power of sin and death, all the sins of the Old Testament saints, and He died.  He drank all the sins of all nations. When He died, all the sins in His body were gone. Then he died, went down, threw away all his sins, and was resurrected, overcoming the devil, who had the power of death. He has risen from the dead. The only way to overcome death is to die and come back to life.  There is only one person who can rise from the dead. That’s why God became a man, folks. He accomplished this at the time of the first coming. The Devil killed him without knowing it. To kill the king was to kill himself, and he didn’t know that. When the Lord was resurrected, the devil,  the great dragon, squawked in the sky. I’m wrong. The devil is such a fool. A person who has the Holy Spirit is a wise person. Because we have understanding, we can overcome the devil. But those who do not have the Holy Spirit are the devil’s food. He who sinned was a slave to sin. He couldn’t find any excuse for Daniel.  It’s the same with Jesus. I have found no fault with this man. Pilate made this confession. Pilate confessed three times.  I couldn’t find anyone else. Nevertheless, they mobilized the people and told them to crucify them, so they nailed him to the cross.  Yes, I wash my hands, I am innocent, so turn this blood on us and our children. The Jews are still suffering because of those words. They are guilty of killing Jesus, and now when the Lord comes at the end of the tribulation,

When we repent, we receive forgiveness of our sins.  Isn’t it true that we have sinned all our lives, and then we sinned before believing in Jesus, and once we believe in Jesus, all our sins disappear? It’s the same thing.  It’s the same with Jews. The first is the Jews. This gospel of grace is also Jewish first. As long as the Jews repent, my child. I just accept it. Why? If those people believe in Jesus, they will lay down their lives and believe in Him. The real Apostle Paul became a servant of Jesus Christ because he believed in Jesus. I was enslaved. Why? He bought me. Your body is not yours. I bought it with blood. Guys, how can a business be mine if the body is not mine? Absolutely. When I become a servant of Christ, everything else that depends on me becomes the Lord’s. Some people say that their bodies are not slaves, but they have a certain business and say that this work belongs to the Lord, but in fact, it is all theirs. What if it belongs to the Lord? If you’re going to put it all out, you’ve got to put it out. This is the Lord’s. That’s why I don’t need to say anything. You just have to do it with action. The Pharisees talked a lot. The Pharisees used God’s law to criticize and oppose Jesus. For example, what do the disciples eat on the Sabbath, so why do they eat it? Why heal the sick because they heal them? That’s how you the Lord.  So, Jesus said if your sheep falls into the pit on the Sabbath, will you save it from the pit?  Because they are covetous. What about a sheep? I know you’re covetous, so that’s why I asked. Do you not do as much as you can for your own benefit? So I didn’t say anything.

         In the end, the dignitaries, with the exception of Daniel, take counsel and put pressure on the king, now. But the king knows Daniel, right? You know what kind of dignitaries they are, right? What is our true law? Here we read  in verse 8 [O king, establish the decree now, and sign the document, that it may not be altered by the law of the Medellín and the Persians,  which cannot be altered] according to the law.

The affair moves. Now, then, what is the law that we have received? What is the edict before us? Luke 10:27 says,  “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind.” This is the law that has been given to us. Isn’t that a new commandment? God struck the seal. Jesus gave us the commandments, and the Father just struck the seal. That’s something that no one can really change.  I don’t have anything to say. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength,  and mind.  So if you’re going to die, you have to die. Now, anyone who violates this must die. That’s what these dignitaries said. Bring down those who opposed. The king was very upset because he knew that their hearts were jealous of this Daniel and wanted to kill him no matter what he did, but he had to sign it. Now, this Mede Persia is a little weaker than Babylon in comparison to Babylon

It was a country.  It was never a monarchy. The more the kingdom of the world descends, the weaker it becomes. What about now? How weak is it? We don’t have a lot of power right now, either the president or the king. If you do something wrong, you get impeached, and that’s what happened. So the time will come when the Antichrist will appear and rule the earth again. Well, I knew Daniel had signed it. When he learned that the king had signed this decree, he went to his room, opened the window to Jerusalem, and knelt down three times a day to pray and give thanks to God, just as he had done before. As I was meditating this morning, God gave me this thought. Shadrach, Meshach, and Mabednego did not bow down to the golden image. You didn’t do it, and you ended up in the furnace. When they entered, they saw the Lord appearing and protecting them. Wouldn’t Daniel have been there then? A lot of people think Oh, Daniel must have gone on a business trip. With your own thoughts. Since Daniel is in his second reign, how does he travel? It’s the most historic day of Babylon, so how do you go on a business trip? I don’t know what Daniel did. But there is no indication that Daniel did not bow down there. Whatever it was, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego hadn’t bowed so openly in Daniel’s eyes, but what if Daniel had nodded as if he were meditating for a moment? If Daniel had done that, how much it would have hurt him. In fact, Daniel just had to pray inside. Why did you leave the window open on purpose? We need to think about a number of things. Daniel had decided to enter the lions’ den. Why? Didn’t he decide to meet the God who saved him? What it is? Those who have truly experienced the hand of the Lord who saved me from my difficulties while keeping my faith on this earth today. That’s how I met the Lord. Well, it wasn’t that someone showed up to me, but that I really had to pardon and die, and when I relied on the Lord in this situation, the Lord saved me. The person who experienced this met the Lord.This is the person I met the Lord, not in a dream or in a vision. Daniel probably felt this way. If he had the Spirit of the Lord in him, he would have envied those three men.  I don’t know, but that’s what I thought. So I would have left the window wide open and just shouted.  I didn’t know how these people were going to do it, but they left the door open, so if they had closed the door, they wouldn’t have seen it, but they left the door open, and they said, oh, that’s great, but in the end, they did something stupid. They thought that if they killed our Lord, they would be fine. He said it was because I was king. I did it three times. No compromise. It’s a clear attitude that we don’t worship humans and we don’t worship the gods of the world. In the end, this is God

It is a love that can only be achieved through absolute trust and obedience. In fact, if we are to serve the Lord, we must serve Him consistently, 365  days a year. Look at Daniel. He was a man of aggressive faith who prayed with his windows open to Jerusalem, a man who had this kind of faith toward the world. However, many people see such people as a dragon head who works hard at first and then disappears. The people in the Bible serve the Lord more and more as time goes by. However, those who are not the Holy Spirit and do not receive the filling of the Holy Spirit can see that they do a little bit and then roll up. Others are hyperactive. There are people who do it in excess. Yes, there are people who end up screaming. But what did the Lord say? Be ye as wise as serpents and as pure as doves. When I send you, it is like sending sheep before a flock of wolves. The Lord has spoken. We have to be supportive. If you look at the United States now, it’s  like a market or a Walmart, but if you preach in a public place, you will be arrested. I can’t do it. But you don’t have to go there and shout. Oh, I follow God’s law. There are people who go there and shout, and that’s stupid. There is plenty of room to preach. You don’t have to go there. Isn’t it?  You can talk to the barber when you get a haircut, you can talk to everyone you meet, you can talk to as many people as you want. Some people were arrested for preaching in the  DMV  over there, but they don’t have to go there to do it. What would it be like to be in the  DMV right now and get busy working? You have to talk about something when you’re quiet and ready, not just at any time. But sometimes God will make you do that. That’s why we need to be as wise as serpents.  You have to be as bold as a lion, but sometimes you have to be as wise as a serpent. This Daniel, in the face of God’s meeting with him at the right time, must have been signaled by the Holy Spirit to do something about it. That’s why he didn’t bow down so bravely to the gods of the world. But how many Christians,  how many servants of the Lord do not open the door to the New Jerusalem, but open the door to the Vatican and open the door to the world like Sodom and pray? What’s that? I pray, but I ask for something to rot. It’s about praying and opening the door to the world. We just have one hope: to live in the New Jerusalem when the Lord comes,  to pray for the New Jerusalem. Just as Daniel opened his window to Jerusalem. Some people also open their windows to the earthly Jerusalem. Otherwise, we should pray with the door open to the New Jerusalem, right? This guy is really

He is the one who does not seek what will rot, but what will not perish, and what will not perish. In this way, when we go to the end, no matter what difficulties come our way, we will be rescued like Daniel. I will pray.

God the Father! We have heard of Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego keeping the faith in the Gentile lands of Babylon and Medefasa. We are now witnessing the end of the Ten-Toe Age, the end of Rome,  and the coming of the Ten-Toe Age under the Antichrist. But we believe that the Lord will take us before the tribulation as He promised. God the Father! As we live in these last days, may we not bow down to the gods of the world, we do not open our windows to the world like Sodom, but we pray with our windows open to our home, toward the New Jerusalem, and even though we are accused by the devil, by some people, we may live a holy life to the end, and we may live a clean life without giving them any offense, and then we may meet you.  As we preach the kingdom, the time has come when people, even those who believe in God the Father, deny the kingdom of God. The time has come to condemn the preaching of the kingdom as heresy.  God the Father, as we look to the prophets who do not preach the kingdom of the world, but the kingdom of God, we pray that we will walk with them in the same faith. Help us to be all who can boldly proclaim the kingdom of Christ. Help even Jehovah’s Witnesses to be powers of the Word to preach. So help us all to be wonderful powers to lead them to you, pleasing to you.  Since it has been said that those who lead all people into righteousness shine like the stars in the heavens for all eternity, let us be the ones who lead the true gospel by the word of righteousness of the Father, and may all of us, from children to the elderly, be armed with the full armor of the Word of God, and take up the sword of the Holy Spirit, pray in the Holy Spirit with ignorance, pray patiently for the saints, serve the saints of the church, and go forth and arm ourselves as soldiers of Christ, and overcome many souls. I thanked you and prayed in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
