A kingdom that shall never be destroyed. Daniel 2:44
D.L. MOODYNapoleon tried to establish a kingdom by the force of arms. So did Alexander the Great and Caesar and other great warriors, but they utterly failed. Jesus founded His kingdom on love, and it is going to stand. When we join this realm of love, then all selfish and unworthy motives will disappear and our work will stand the fire when God shall put it to the test.
ERWIN LUTZERSome dictators have made promises about their kingdoms; Hitler predicted his empire would last for a thousand years, but …

For I tell you, you will not see me again, until you say, “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.” Matthew 23:39
D.L. MOODYWhen Christ returns, He will not be treated as He was before. There will be room for Him at Bethlehem. He will be welcome in Jerusalem. He will reveal Himself as Joseph revealed himself to his brethren. He will say to the Jews, “I am Jesus,” and they will reply, “Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord.” And the Jews will then be that nation that shall be …

If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king.But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up. Daniel 3:17–18
D.L. MOODYShadrach, Meshach, and Abednego spoke respectfully, but firmly. And mark, they did not absolutely say that God would deliver them from the burning, fiery furnace; but they declared that He was able to deliver them. “But if not,”—if in …

And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky above; and those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. Daniel 12:3
D.L. MOODYHow empty and short-lived are the glory and the pride of this world! If we are wise, we will live for God and eternity; we will get outside of ourselves and will care nothing for the honor and glory of this world. In Proverbs 11:30 we read: “He that winneth souls is wise.” If any man, woman, or child, by a godly life and example, can win one soul …

When Daniel knew that the document had been signed, he went to his house where he had windows in his upper chamber open toward Jerusalem. He got down on his knees three times a day and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he had done previously. Daniel 6:10
D.L. MOODYThere is many a businessman today who will tell you he has no time to pray: his business is so pressing that he cannot call his family around him and ask God to bless them. He is so busy that he cannot ask God to keep him and …

I have fought the good fight. 2 Timothy 4:7
D.L. MOODYRome never had such a conqueror as Paul within her walls. Rome never had such a mighty man as Paul within her boundaries. Although the world looked down upon him, and perhaps he looked very small and contemptible, yet in the sight of heaven, he was the mightiest man who ever trod the streets of Rome. Probably there will never be another one like him travelling those streets. The Son of God walked with him like the fourth man in the fiery furnace (see Daniel 3:24–25).

But I see four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire. Daniel 3:25
D.L. MOODYIt does my heart good to think that the worst the devil can do is to burn off the bonds of God’s children. If Christ be with us, the worst afflictions can only loosen our earthly bonds and set us free to soar higher.
ERWIN LUTZERNebuchadnezzar promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to high positions in his land. But due to an ego problem, he set up an image of himself (Daniel 3:5). When these three men wouldn’t bow to the image, the …

Then these men said, “We shall not find any ground for complaint against this Daniel unless we find it in connection with the law of his God.” Daniel 6:5
D.L. MOODYWhat a testimony from his bitterest enemies! Would that it could be said of all of us! He had never taken a bribe, he had never been connected with a “ring.” Ah, how his name shines! He had commenced to shine in his early manhood, and he shone right along. Now he is an old man, an old statesman, and yet this is their testimony. Character is worth more …

Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, for all his works are right and his ways are just; and those who walk in pride he is able to humble. Daniel 4:37
D.L. MOODYWhen you find that a man has got to praising God it is a good sign. Nebuchadnezzar’s earlier edict said much about other people’s duty toward the God of the Hebrews, but nothing about what the king himself should do. Oh, let us get to personal love, personal praise! That is what is wanted in the church in the present day.We …

He answered and said, “But I see four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.” Daniel 3:25
D.L. MOODYThe fourth man was, doubtless, the Son of God. That Great Shepherd of the sheep saw three of His true servants in peril, and He came from His Father’s presence and His Father’s bosom to be with them in it. He had been watching that terrible attempt to burn the faithful. His tender pitying eye saw they were condemned to death …
