Have you ever watched the news and thought: “What in the world is happening?” Maybe you’ve looked at the culture. Politics. Wars. Division. Violence. Technology. The economy. Your children’s future. Your grandchildren’s future. And somewhere inside you, there’s a growing feeling: “Things are getting out of control.”
And it’s not just the world. Sometimes our personal world feels out of control. A relationship changes. A job disappears. The doctor says something we weren’t expecting. A child takes a path we never imagined. Plans fall apart. And when enough things feel uncertain, fear starts asking, “Who’s really in control?”
That’s where Daniel 7 takes us. His vision reminds us that God is still in control. And the throne is not empty. Earth may look chaotic. But heaven is not. Don’t let our view of the “beasts” be bigger than our God.
