God moves hearts: I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, because everything he does is right. Daniel 4:37

The Bible tells us in the book of Daniel how God moves the minds and hearts of men according to a plan that is mysterious to men but wise to the Lord.
Nebuchadnezzar was the tyrant of Babylon, and he was an arrogant and haughty person, but it happened during his reign that he had a dream that disturbed him greatly. Then Nebuchadnezzar called the prophet Daniel to give him the interpretation of the dream, and Daniel, inspired by God, was able to understand its meaning.
Daniel explained to King Nebuchadnezzar that the God of Israel had decided to punish him with the madness, that he would eat grass like oxen and his nails would become like those of birds, to demonstrate that beyond all human intentions, God disposes of the royalty of men, and just as he, the creator of all things, with his unfathomable wisdom, allows the kings to emerge, he also humiliates them when it is necessary.
But at the end Daniel left a humble advice to the King: "Renounce your sins by doing what is right, and your wickedness by being kind to the oppressed. It may be that then your prosperity will continue" Daniel 4:27.
And so it was that after twelve months, the Bible tells us, while Nebuchadnezzar proudly walked through his palace, a voice from heaven was heard, and after this Nebuchadnezzar fell victim to madness.
And after the time established in the dream, seven times, the king Nebuchadnezzar recovered and said:
"At the same time that my sanity was restored, my honor and splendor were returned to me for the glory of my kingdom. My advisers and nobles sought me out, and I was restored to my throne and became even greater than before. Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just. And those who walk in pride he is able to humble" Daniel 4:36-37.
