Scripture:
Daniel 2:36-39, 44-45; 3:1-2

God’s History or Your History?

Observation:

What is the difference between the statue in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream
(Dan 2:31-33, 38) and the statue that Nebuchadnezzar made (Dan 3:1)?

Deeper Reflection
Nebuchadnezzar’s dream troubled him so much that he had sleepless nights (Dan 2:1). And he was so desperate to know its true meaning that he made an unreasonable demand on his wise men that was impossible to meet, and he would destroy them all should they fail in the task (Dan 2:5, 10-12). But now that Daniel had made known to him both the content and the meaning of his dream, it was a great relief – given by God – for the king.After that, Nebuchadnezzar ā€œmade a statue (selem 22 ) of goldā€ (Dan 3:1). God had revealed to Nebuchadnezzar in his dream His plan of world history, which is symbolised by ā€œa single great statue (selem)ā€ (Dan 2:31). The statue is made up of a golden head, silver arms, bronze thighs, and iron legs with feet made up of a mixture of iron and clay (Dan 2:32-33). God said to Nebuchadnezzar clearly: ā€œYou are the head of goldā€ (v.39). But Nebuchadnezzar rejected God’s plan of world history. He did not want to be just a ā€œhead of goldā€. He wanted to be a ā€œstatue of goldā€! God said to him, ā€œAfter you there will arise another kingdomā€, symbolised by the silver arms (v.39). As a ā€œstatue of goldā€, there is no such thing as ā€œafter youā€ for Nebuchadnezzar. And the shattering stone outside human control, representing God’s everlasting Kingdom (vv.44-45), was ignored and forgotten. Nebuchadnezzar the ā€œstatue of goldā€ was resisting the supreme kingship of God. What foolish and futile arrogance!Do you want God’s history for your life or do you want to write your own history?
22 In Aramaic
Application:

How do I deal with my not wanting to be just a ā€œhead of goldā€ but a ā€œstatue
of goldā€?

Prayer:
Write a prayer to God as your response from your meditation on and application of the Scriptures.
Prayer Pointers:
  • Give thanks and praise
  • Pray for pastors and staff: To be highly conscious of God’s story in their lives
  • Pray for significant people
  • Pray for those in need
  • Pray for self
