A Kings Dream

Welcome To One and All.

There's just so much happening in the world today. The more our leaders plan and organise programs for a better society, the more it falls into chaos, crime is on the increase, education is on an all time low, the economy is in perils, and feeling safe seems to be a thing of the past.
As if that's not enough, the earth is now reacting to all the abuse it has receive from the hands of men.
The question now is WHY? and Where do we turn for help? My answer to you for the latter question, is to turn to the creator of all things, and he will show you the reasons WHY things are the way they are today.




Jeremiah 33:3Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.


God in his divinely inspired word the HOLY BIBLE, has declared his will for all mankind and has revealed through biblical prophecy, the future of all things on the earth and the end of this age.
Isaiah 46:9-10 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, [10] Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:

My dear reader, I remind you of the psalmist words "GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGHT, A VERY PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE" psalm 46:1. If you are a true worshipper you need not fear, though the mountains of the earth shake! Be not moved for God is in control at all times. As I said to you in the last post, God Loves You! and he has a plan to redeem this earth to himself. Lets begin now to look at this wonderful plan.

I begin in the year 603 B.C where these powerful and dreadful words were spoken by the most powerful King on earth at that time:

"The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if ye will not make known unto me the dream, with the interpretation thereof, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill. But if ye shew the dream, and the interpretation thereof, ye shall receive of me gifts and rewards and great honour: therefore shew me the dream, and the interpretation thereof." Daniel 2:5-6

This was Nebuchadnezzar the Great the King of Babylon, the Neo-Chaldean Empire (605-562). Nebuchadnezzar took over reign from his father Nabopolassar, who founded the Chaldean Empire in 625 B.C. You can look up the famous battle of Carchemish in 605 B.C where Nebuchadnezzar defeated Neco of Egypt. This king also began his rule with the destruction of Jerusalem.



In the second year of Nebuchadnezzars' reign, he dreamed dreams where with his spirit was troubled according to Daniel 2:1 of the Bible. With all the wise men of Babylon at his command, he demanded to know what the dream was, and what it meant; Even to the point where these men where told that if they could not tell the dream or interpret it they would be put to death. Serious stuff!!!. Nebuchadnezzar would soon find out that this was more than a dream, but a vision from God. Nebuchadnezzar refused to let the dream past as just another dream, even if he could not remember it, the King of Babylon would not be denied an answer. Daniel 2:3-12. After all he was King right!

So after all the nobles, sorcerers, magicians, and astrologers failed to interpret the King's Dream,They were all killed leaving behind only the unlearned members of the empire!!!!!!!!!!. Just checking to see if your still with me!. The truth is, they where saved because Daniel and his three friends called on God for help!



God revealed the vision to Daniel and the interpretation also. This vision tells of all the world powers that would rule the whole world as empires. These are followed by the return of Jesus, who would set up an everlasting Kingdom. This kingdom will put an end to all earthly governments, rulers and kingdoms. There are many who believe in the world coming to an end, being destroyed putting an end to all life on earth. The bible does not teach a destruction of all life on earth, but rather an end to the kingdoms of men, and the destruction of the wicked or those who do not do the will of God. Daniel reveals to Nebuchadnezzar, the vision that he had on his bed for it was a great vision: Spanning from 603 B.C to the present and still a little more.




¶ Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible. 32 This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, 33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. 34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. 35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. 36 This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.






This Image showed the various world empires that would rise up upon the face of the earth, before the setting up of the everlasting kingdom by Jesus in the Latter days . Babylon was shown to be the Head of Gold, with no one to appose them, until the rise of the next super power. The breast and arms of silver, would be the Medo-Persian Empire 539 B.C led by Cyrus the Great. The Persians where then conquered by the belly and thighs of brass. This being Greece under Alexander the Great in 331 B.C. The last true world empire was Rome 168 B.C. which is represented as the legs of iron.

Let's look back at some History
Rome 168 b.c- mid 4th century A.D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8FPF6OgPRc


Now, we are living in the feet that is a mixture of Iron and Clay. This description of the feet truly speaks of all world powers after the Romans, right down to our world today. Governments are making continuous peace treaties that keep failing. World leaders are trying to come together for peace. My readers the bible says in Daniel 2: 43 of the feet of the image:


"And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men but they shall not cleave one to another, even as Iron is not mixed with Clay."


The Stone that was cut out without hand which smote the image upon his feet. THIS IS IN OUR TIME MY DEAR READER, IT IS IN OUR TIME THAT THIS KINGDOM WILL BE SET UP, AND ONLY THE FAITHFUL SERVANTS OF THE MOST HIGH WILL BE ABLE TO ENTER THAT KINGDOM.


Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments. Psalms 119:73


Would you say the same today and let the Lord guide you into his truth?
