The prophet Daniel: You have given me wisdom and power, you have made known to me what we asked of you

The book of Daniel teaches us that God is the source of all the perfections in man, the spiritual gifts are excellencies. God gave the prophet Daniel very special spiritual gifts, to fulfill a very important spiritual mission, to bear witness before King Nebuchadnezzar of the God of Israel, the only true God.
As it happened with Joseph, the son of Jacob in the book of Genesis, God gave Daniel the gifts of wisdom, discernment, and the ability to interpret dreams and visions; and this is not casual, most probably Daniel had some kinship or relationship with David's family, because the Bible tells us that Daniel was selected from among the noble families of Judah.
And the spiritual gifts that the prophet Daniel received from God, especially caught the attention of King Nebuchadnezzar, and the Bible also tells us that Daniel surpassed all the wise men and magicians of his time in wisdom and discernment. The prophet Daniel was a good example of a spiritually blessed person, and in Daniel a teaching was fulfilled: "My child, when you come to serve the Lord, prepare yourself for trials" Ben Sira 2:1.
Daniel had to overcome numerous tests in the court of Nebuchadnezzar, and one of them was the divination of a mysterious dream.
God revealed Nebuchadnezzar's dream and its meaning, and for this reason Daniel gave a prayer of thanks to the God of Israel, and so were his words:
"Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever;
wisdom and power are his.
He changes times and seasons;
he deposes kings and raises up others.
He gives wisdom to the wise
and knowledge to the discerning.
He reveals deep and hidden things;
he knows what lies in darkness,
and light dwells with him.
I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors:
You have given me wisdom and power,
you have made known to me what we asked of you,
you have made known to us the dream of the king" Daniel 2:20-23.
As Daniel showed us, those who put their trust in the Lord, despite how difficult the tests are, always emerge victorious.
