APPLICATION

What will I do?

    1. Why was Daniel overcome and appalled by the vision? Should we be appalled also? If not, how should this chapter affect us?
    2. Daniel needed help to interpret God's message for him. What are some ways that we can seek to better understand God's Word?
    3. How is it helpful for us today to know that God predicted these things in the past?
