MEMORIZE: ''Verily i say unto you, whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven''

One lesson we learn from king Nebuchadnezzar's is that the force that were instrumental in bringing us to our present positions are still there, and could be used to remove us when we misbehave (Dan. 4:24-25). This means that to punish someone, God does not need extra hands. The instruments are already there. Never take your vantage position, or opportunity for granted. Make the best use of every opportunity and ensure there is no abuse. Some people find themselves in the opportunity abuse . Dipping hands into the collections from any church service to meet personal needs is service abuse. Being nasty, talking rudely to and sleeping with a subordinate amounts to leadership abuse. betraying the trust of those who voted you into power by neglecting their basic needs and concentrating on personal needs is power abuse. Every time you abuse the opportunity God has given you to make life better for someone else, you draw the same forces that set you up to pull you down. May you not be the one to dethrone yourself in Jesus name.
After the interpretation of the dream, Daniel provided some counsel to the king. There are lessons to learn from every dream- particularly a revelational dream. If you cannot from your dreams draw your inferences, which could guide you on appropriate lines or action, the purpose of such dreams could be lost. Do you prayerfully consider the possible lessons from each dream you receive? Nebuchadnezzar's dream was an expression of God's mercy in trying to prevent a possible unpleasant outcome. Apart from the dreams that are 'for your information only', you can give shape and direction to your dream by your works, prayers and fasting. Never joke with any you can remember in details. If you do not take steps to change the direction of that dream, it could change yours. Have you been receiving dreams impending judgement? Immediately change your ways, repent, right your wrongs through necessary restitution and prevent the judgement. When the evil genius, King Ahab humbled himself after hearing God's verdict, the punishment for his sin was deferred. That negative dream can be averted! when you handle any negative dream with humility, repentance, restitution, prayer and fasting but it still happens, then it was or your information only. Nothing can change such a dream. But most dreams can be changed into something more preferable.
