12-20-07 Daniel 2:23

Daniel 2:23 (NAS)
To Thee, O God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, For Thou hast given me wisdom and power; Even now Thou hast made known to me what we requested of Thee, For Thou hast made known to us the king’s matter."

Daniel 2:23 (NLT)
I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors, for you have given me wisdom and strength. You have told me what we asked of you and revealed to us what the king demanded.








You have much for which to thank Adonai; you, therefore, laud, praise, and confess His name continually. When you stretch forth your hands, the symbol of your strength, in adulation and adoration, you are showing God and the world that He, the Almighty God, is the source of your strength. He is the One who soothes and stills you, giving you peace in the midst of turmoil. You have seen His majesty and splendor, for He has been the God of your father, as well.

Jehovah is the One who gives you with wisdom; He teaches and instructs you in acting wisely. He makes you skillful, shrewd, and prudent. Through Him you receive strength and might; He has made you brave and full of valor. You strongly prevail because the Lord has confirmed His covenant with you.

Whenever you present your petitions to God, seeking Him for the answers, the Lord your God is faithful to communicate and inform you of what you need to know. He gives you perception and discernment so that you can distinguish His will, which He reveals to you.

Now you know the words that Adonai speaks to you. You understand the commands of the King. You adhere to His counsel and advice
