Looking Forward from Behind Part 3 RDS8A

If I could put it in teenager terminology recoupment stressful at simple but the second part of the same picture is that all humans to us through his word key science into the data related to the future, have never thought about looking forward from behind. It will make sense in just a minute with a Bible-based reading of Dr. Wilton this is The Encouraging Word featuring the Bible-based preaching of Dr. Don Wilton well-known author, evangelist, pastor, and today as we dive into this particular topic in Daniel chapter 2 we gaining insight on perspective and again he describes it as looking forward from behind as we dive in the word of God.

Know the wherefore you would love to pray with you and for you as well. We can connect on our website@twonline.org DEW online.org have a conversation with you to pray with you on the phone at 866899 word that's 866-899-9673. Now today's message looking forward from behind with Dr. Don Wilton trade together from Daniel chapter 2 and verse 13 Nebuchadnezzar had a dream he forgot what he dreamt about the annual is now about to interpret this dream to him.

Look at verse 13. As for me, this mystery has been revealed to me, not because I have greater wisdom than other living man but so that you may know, the interpretation that you might understand what went through your mind. You looked okay baby for years to the law, distraction, and an almost dazzling structure. Also, in appearance, the head of the statue was made of pure gold. It's trash them all silver it's barium thighs of bronze legs of iron and its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay while you were watching her walk was cut off, but not by human hand. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed. Then the I am the clay, the bronze, silver and gold were broken to pieces at the same time and became like on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace, but the rocket struck distraction became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. This was the dream now we will interpret to the king you are working all the King of Kings, the God of heaven has given you dominion and power and might and glory in your hands he has placed mankind and the beasts of the field and the birds of the air wherever you they live is made you ruler over them you all that head of gold often hear another kingdom will rise, inferior to yours next kingdom, one of bronze, will rule over the whole earth. Finally, there will be 1/4 kingdom, strong as iron iron breaks and smashes everything in his iron breaks things to pieces so it will crush and break all others. Just as your soul that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom yet.

It will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay as the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle and just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united anymore than iron mixes with clay in the time of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people it will cross whole. Those kingdoms and bring them to them in but will itself endure forever. This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of the mountain, but not by human hands. Arauca broke the eye and broadens the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces. The great God has shown the king what will take place in the future. This dream is true and the interpretation is trustworthy. Couple of things I want to say to you, what are we moving in slow fall eight things number one we learned that Daniel was composed before all the classes that he faced number two, we learned that Daniel was courageous before his captors, number three, we learned that Daniel was uncompromising even before the King of Kings Nebuchadnezzar that before we planned that Daniel was convicted before his peers.

Number five, we learned that Daniel was controlled before his tormentors. Number six. Remember Daniel was careful before his God. He was confident before his God and he was contract before his God. Now the key verse in Daniel chapter 1. Does anybody remember what the key verse was in Daniel chapter 1 just shouted out this site.

The site, but Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine in the office. The chief official for permission not to defile himself in this way. The key verse in this section in Daniel chapter 2 that we are looking at now looking forward from behind is verse 44 in the time of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people it will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to them in but will itself endure forever. Folks just to leapfrog a little bit. If my that there is talking about the new heaven and the new earth that this theory is taking us to the end of the book of Revelation, so you might as well put the end of the book of Revelation, chapter and verse 44 that leapfrog's us overall whole forest array of historical fact and prophetic utterance and I'm going to show you that in fact there is a difference between historical fact. On the one hand and prophecy yet to be for food. On the other hand some things that I want you to remember. Remember that Daniel had been selected. He was chosen God Winton chosen folks.

I don't believe that God is change these tactics of old. I really believe that God is choosing people today. I believe that he's pointing a man and woman young people like you and me any sign I'm choosing you I'm selecting you number two Nebuchadnezzar had a dream. Let's not forget that dream. The dream is very important. Let's not forget that God used an imperfect being in order to try and get a message through to people like me. Let's not forget the significance of the dream that Nebuchadnezzar had evil Canaanite godless man, someone who had violated the precepts of everything that God stood for. God chose to use 1/3 Nebuchadnezzar called in the experts you will remember in chapter 2 he called a minimum, and he said to them, you people are wise and you are the experts you are the Chaldeans of the astrologers and the sorcerers you tell us what's going on. They were horrified. Chapter 2 verse 11 what the king losses far too difficult. Besides Betty's wise men say no one can reveal it to the king except the goggles and they do not live among men well in the fourth place makes remember how Daniel's life became jeopardized.

He was threatened in a very deep level because they couldn't find a solution to the problem and Daniel had now become associated with the Wiseman so Daniel was amongst those he was about to be executed. Let's remember in the first place. How Daniel will manage the crisis of his life. Remember, if you go back a week or two ago how I made some suggestions about some of the Masons we can learn about handling a crisis you will remember that I suggested based upon Daniel's experience don't be in a hurry to go to classes to stop doing what you're doing. Most of us are in too much of a hurry when we get into the classes. Remember to return to your roots. Remember to seek godly counsel. Remember the place. The prayer of faith. Remember to be very specific in your prayer time. Remember to praise God even involves to thank them ahead of time for what he is done. Daniel new how to handle a crisis and so God gave them an incredible solution to an unbelievable set of circumstances. God took him and rescued him again in the 16 since makes remember the Daniel turn to God. When Daniel turned to God and God took control. God had a plan and God was about to reveal that plan and hearing these verses we are going to see how that God through his servant allows you and I look forward from behind.

That's what prophecies prophecy means that you and I can stand over here and we can look at the year 2020 and we can look ahead and we can all we can prophesy and say 20 years from now, the following things are going to happen. Well, let's see what the significance of this dream interpretation really want. I want you to look at it with me. First of all, Daniel tells us from this 30 Daniel says listen I want you to know the purpose for the revelation of this mystery. The purpose for the revelation of this mystery. Daniel Saiz is in order so that you might know what is going on God. When God gives to us. Prophecy, God is trying to show us what God wants us to know God is in the business of allowing us to know what's going on is not incredible. Now folks listen to me wanting to know about the future involves two things. Number one of involves trust and faith, trust and faith means that hey wait a minute.

I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow, but I know that God loves me enough that I can entrust my tomorrows to him. Maybe there's someone here to monitor you fall into that category and there is something going on in your life. Maybe it's even a sickness cancer or you are undergoing treatment. So you're facing surgery or something is going on when you you're afraid you don't know about tomorrow.

The first element of tomorrow is the element of trust. We just accept the fact that God is the God of tomorrow and he holds out future in the palm of his bow. There is a sense in which we can racecar casing that fosters total abandonment of our souls for the future in God's hands, but the second element of the future concerns that which we know to be true based upon the revelation of God through the word of God by the Spirit of God to the people of God now closely interpretation of this agreement put two elements upon number one getting gone implicitly about tomorrow. Can I make a suggestion to you.

Alice get back to today's message with Dr. Don Wilton.

These are being presented with both of these things juxtaposed to that going to run parallel tracks together. The implicit law of God in Christ Jesus through his word class to place our trust in our faith in him that God is going to work things out that God is in control, that God is not going to allow us to suffer that God is going to take care of us, but on the other side. Let's look at the Shelley here are the facts Daniel Saiz and we going to begin.

Basically in verse 31 in the interpretation of the dream he saved you look talking and there before you stood a large statue so we bought a large stack almost dazzling. Now the first thing I wanted to is when you look at the section what you see you see a man, a person run. This statue represents the history of man.

This statue represents the history of man. I want to watch me now calculated study very close to me.

I'm going to tell you a couple things before we get into this.

First of all, we all gain the notice. The same thing that when a stock with a hidden mechanic came up with the feet. We gonna start with gold. I mechanic came up with Clay value is going to increasingly go down. Also what is going to go down. Gold is heavier than Clay screen is going to diminish purity is going to diminish.

Gold is pure clay is allowable. It's good that I want you to watch your folks. Everything is going to start up ahead.

This is the history of mankind and everything is going to go downhill until eventually the history of mankind is going to end up in the toes and when it ends up in the toes.

Something's going to happen because I not made by human hands is going to come flying out symbolically and is going to smash the remaining part of the body of mankind. It's going to hit man and he's Achilles' heel that he's the weakest most useless point, the point at which man no longer has the capacity to do anything for himself. Now let's go on this journey.

First of all, the head of the statue was made of pure gold. Second of all, the Bible say is that it's chest and arms were my silver me just remind you that silver is like precious metal, but it is Aviles value then go for its brilliant size all my problems. In verse 33 Brahms is of greatest value than silver for its legs are made of iron. I is of less value than bronze is of less value than silver is the latest value then go but I am going to say to you that time is very strong that's very significant when we begin to commit the connection between the history of man and the interpretation of the screen and then lost the clock.

Please its feet have brought a mixture of folks. This mixture is is a very interesting thing that still grappling with a little bit because the Bible says there is a mixture between iron and clay by the way, I'm not into all this kind of stuff. So I've had to go back and read about some of these things and those of you that are experts in precious making willingly and gladly stand corrected in all things that I'm signing but I do believe, according to some of the things that I've read that you will never mix iron and clay together. You will never to get them to become the same substance. They just don't go together. And when you use both of them together. The whole lot becomes weak and ineffective. Now look what happens to what Daniel was saying to King Nebuchadnezzar, beginning from verse 36 is that this huge also dazzling wonderful man. I've tried to ask myself why statue is so enormous and dazzling. Some people say it's because of the prominence of Nebuchadnezzar. Well that might be to but I personally believe that it's enormous and dazzling and strong because God created man. How did God create man God created man in his own image so much for the coming perhaps the very next staff is the most important, not about studying, coming up next Dr. Don Wilton perhaps the most important question God has spoken.
