00:08:29.500 - 00:08:58.060

In the 20th through the 26th verses, Daniel answered and said, "Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and might are his, and he changes the times and the seasons. He removeth kings and setteth up kings.

00:08:58.060 - 00:09:19.080

He giveth wisdom unto the wise and knowledge to them that know understanding. He revealeth the deep and secret things. He knoweth what is in the darkness and the light dwelleth with him. I thank thee and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers,

00:09:19.080 - 00:09:39.380

who hath given me wisdom and might, and hath made known unto me now what we desired of thee. For thou has made known unto us the king's matter. Therefore Daniel went in unto Ariok,

00:09:39.380 - 00:10:05.380

whom the king had ordained to destroy the wise men of Babylon. He went and said unto them, destroy not the wise men of Babylon, bring me in before the king and I will show unto the king the interpretation. Then Ariac brought him Daniel before the

00:10:05.380 - 00:10:43.380

king in haste and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the captives of Judah that will make known unto the king the interpretation. The king answered and said to Daniel whose name was Beltshazzar, art thou able to make known unto me the dream which I have seen and the interpretation thereof? Daniel answered

00:10:43.380 - 00:11:29.420

in the presence of the king and said the secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers show unto the king, but there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. May the Lord bless to us the reading and hearing of his holy word.

00:11:29.420 - 00:12:01.780

subject of the message, "A Dream of Destiny." A dream of destiny. The 36th verse of the second chapter of Daniel says, "This is the dream, and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.

00:12:01.780 - 00:12:42.020

This is the dream and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king. Daniel the second chapter and the thirty-sixth verse, a dream of destiny. Dreams reveal the nature of one's being. Dreams provide a forecast of things to come.

00:12:42.020 - 00:13:17.900

Dreams express human hopes and aspirations. American dream is built on hope for a better country, a place where all are equal and free to engage in the pursuit of happiness. This is the American dream. It is the dream of the kingdom of God on earth.

00:13:17.900 - 00:13:42.940

At the gates of the New York harbor is the statue of liberty. This beloved lady holds high the lighted torch of freedom. And her message is a petition and a plea to be permitted to serve as the refuge

00:13:42.940 - 00:14:02.900

for the disadvantaged and disinherited. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuge of your teeming shore,

00:14:02.900 - 00:14:29.900

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me. I lift my lamp beside the golden door. Dreams have a way of turning into a nightmare. Struggle for American independence.

00:14:29.900 - 00:15:20.980

Independence, the Civil War occurred, the nation found that the dream was threatened and it seemed that the dream would be turned into a nightmare. War I and World War II challenged the dream, for the dream was threatened by powerful adversaries, and once again it seemed that the dream would be turned into a nightmare.

00:15:20.980 - 00:15:49.400

Today there seems to be other attempts to turn the dream into a nightmare. We are threatened by inflation. More and more people find it difficult to secure the basic necessities of life. We face an energy crisis.

00:15:49.400 - 00:16:14.880

Gas and oil have to do with our mobility and our comfort as well as our prosperity. There is a threat to the dream. Unemployment, which more and more people who are prepared to work and who want to work have no work to do.

00:16:14.880 - 00:16:50.260

desegregation. This is another threat it seems from time to time to the dream. Only just a few days ago we read where there were race riots in Boston. The very cradle of freedom, the place where the dream was nurtured in its infancy. Martin Luther King sometime ago stood in the shadows of the Lincoln Monument and

00:16:50.260 - 00:17:23.980

proclaimed with matchless eloquence, "I have a dream. I have a dream that is deeply rooted in the American dream. The American dream that someday that all of God's children would sit down together at the table of brotherhood. And people today are asking what has become of the dream? And it seems that the dream has

00:17:23.980 - 00:17:57.060

become a nightmare, for dreams have a way of turning into a nightmare, a way of getting lost in the night so that the contents of the dream are no longer remembered. We become frustrated and we can no longer remember the dream. We're frustrated because we can no longer remember the priority items listed on

00:17:57.060 - 00:18:34.540

our agenda for action. This was the case with Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon. He had a dream and he was troubled by his dream. And although he was king of Babylon and a world conqueror, Nebuchadnezzar was troubled by his dream. That's our predicament today. We are troubled by our dream. Oh yes, we boast of

00:18:34.540 - 00:19:00.020

our material prosperity, but we are troubled by our dream. The American dollar is in trouble. We are troubled by our dreams. And although we spend billions of dollars for military security, we are troubled by our dreams.

00:19:00.020 - 00:19:24.180

And although America is the melting pot of races and a pluralistic society, we are troubled by our dreams. Nebuchadnezzar is troubled by his dreams. The next morning he assembles his wise men, all of the wise men of Babylon.

00:19:24.180 - 00:19:50.460

He calls them to the palace. The magicians, the soothsayers, the astrologers, the philosophers, the professors, the theologians of Babylon, they all come to the palace. Kedneser has his counsel and he says to them, "Tell me my dream. I've had a dream

00:19:50.460 - 00:20:12.860

and I'm troubled by my dream and I want you to tell me my dream and then I want you to interpret it for me." And they said, "Oh yes, King." Said, "We can interpret your dream." He said, "Yes, I want you to interpret." He said, "But first of all you must tell us what the dream is.

00:20:12.860 - 00:20:24.100

Nebuchadnezzar said, "I forgot it. I can't remember the dream." I said, "Now this is expecting too much of us." He said, "Well, you could tell me anything.

00:20:24.100 - 00:20:47.820

If I could tell you the dream, you could tell me something, but to really show that you're wise, to really demonstrate that you have the ability that you profess, I want you to tell me my dream and then interpret it for me. Well, we've been relying upon the wise men of Babylon,

00:20:47.820 - 00:21:04.500

the magicians, those who have their hocus pocus, those who are able to do great things, we say, and the men of Babylon. And yet, somehow, they are unable to properly interpret the dream.

00:21:04.500 - 00:21:28.500

They do not even know the dream. Some rely upon the astrologers of Babylon, and they look at the stars, and they somehow think that the stars control their destiny. And they look to the stars, and some say, "Well, I'm under this star. I'm under this sign." And another says, "I'm under this sign."

00:21:28.500 - 00:21:48.500

And so we look to see what is the prediction for today. But the men of Babylon are unable to interpret this dream. The philosophers, the professors, the theologians, they're all baffled. They are unable to interpret the king's dream.

00:21:48.500 - 00:22:19.500

Well, that's the way it is in Babylon. Unable to interpret the dream. When I was a boy, people always made a great deal of dreams. In fact, in Dallas, in those days, the number racket was in vogue, and we, they called it policy, planned policy.

00:22:19.500 - 00:22:39.500

And you would play certain numbers, and if those numbers came out the way you gave them, you had hit. and you would get according to what you played. And this was very popular, especially with poor people. You could put a nickel, a dime, or what.

00:22:39.500 - 00:22:52.500

And it was popular to depend on your dreams. Some would say, "Well, I had a dream last night." And they'd say, "Well, what did you dream?" And they had a dream book.

00:22:52.500 - 00:23:10.740

And they would look up in the dream book according to what your dream was and there were certain numbers for certain things that occurred in your dream. And some would really rely on the dreams. Well, I had this dream, let me get those numbers, let me play it this morning.

00:23:10.740 - 00:23:36.900

And they were hoping that they would have a hit and that they would get $5 or $10 or $25 or $100 when they would play a dime, a nickel, or a quarter, and they were hoping that all of this would come through the right interpretation of their dreams.

00:23:36.900 - 00:23:55.980

Well, there are some who depend on palm readers telling their dreams, tea leaves, the men of Babylon who can somehow interpret the meaning of their dreams, dreams, their hopes, and their aspirations. Some of these are called two-headed folks.

00:23:55.980 - 00:24:29.340

They're supposed to be able to tell you something, we say. The men of Babylon who are able to interpret our dreams, the people of Babylon. Nebuchadnezzar has a a dream and he can't remember his dream and this dream has become a nightmare. What is the dream? Have we forgotten the dream? The dream that all men are created

00:24:29.340 - 00:25:02.740

equal that and what about women? They too are equal, they're equal parts of God's creation? Have we forgotten the dream? The dream is a dream of destiny. It's a dream that determines our well-being. It's a dream that determines our future as a nation. It's a dream that determines the future of humankind. Dream. All of us have

00:25:02.740 - 00:25:29.980

our dreams. Man has some dream of the kind of woman he'd like to have his dream. The woman has a dream of the kind of man that she'd like to have and it remains for most of us a dream. A dream of the kind of person I'd like to be. Dream of the kind of person you'd like to be. Dream of the kind of world we'd

00:25:29.980 - 00:26:02.920

like to live in. Dream of destiny, a dream. Wise men of Babylon are unable to tell the king his dream. The crystal balls are not working. The incantations are ineffective. Their herbs produce no results. There is confusion and consternation because it seems that there is no one who is able to interpret

00:26:02.920 - 00:26:37.420

the dream but there is one, Daniel. A Hebrew who asked permission of the king to interpret his dream. He doesn't have the answer himself but Daniel knows one who does have the answer. Daniel doesn't know what the future holds but he knows who holds the future and that's what really matters. So Daniel asks permission

00:26:37.420 - 00:27:06.680

to go before the king and to interpret his dream but before he does that Daniel gets with his three friends, Meshach, Shadrach, and Abednego, and they go in prayer together. They go in prayer and they talk to God, tell us the meaning of the dream, tell us what the dream is, and then tell us the meaning of the dream.

00:27:06.680 - 00:27:43.400

whatever secrets there are, tell me thy secret, help me bear the threat of toil, the strain of care. Daniel and his friends are in prayer. And somehow if you really go to God in prayer, if you really go to Him in sincerity and in faith, If we go to Him in prayer, if we are hooked up with eternity, then God will reveal to you His secrets.

00:27:43.400 - 00:27:57.480

Tell us the dream. We can't know the divine dream without somehow being in touch with God Himself. We can't fathom the divine design

00:27:57.480 - 00:28:12.800

unless God reveals it to us. How can we hear without a preacher and how shall they preach unless they be sent? God must interpret the dream. Freedom is God's gift.

00:28:12.800 - 00:28:27.040

We cannot have freedom in defiance of God. That's the problem with our world. We think we can have freedom without goodness. We think that somehow we can have justice without love.

00:28:27.040 - 00:28:44.600

We can't have this dream of destiny, we can't really understand it, we can never interpret it without God. Freedom is God's gift. The Lord God himself must interpret the dream, he must reveal it to us.

00:28:44.600 - 00:29:09.140

Brotherhood for all mankind, it's a dream of destiny. God must reveal to us this dream and God must interpret it for us. must show us how the dream is to be fulfilled. We cannot have it without the leadership of God's Spirit. So this is Nebuchadnezzar's dream, Daniel says. God

00:29:09.140 - 00:29:34.360

reveals it. This is the dream. He said, "Well, in your dream you saw an image, an An image with a gold head, a golden head. The head was of gold and the breast and arms were of silver. The belly and the thighs were of bronze.

00:29:34.360 - 00:30:00.280

And the feet were part iron and part clay. That's what you saw in your dream. It's a dream of the future. It's a dream of destiny. It's a dream in which God is revealing what's to happen to his world. It's a dream about kingdoms. It's a dream

00:30:00.280 - 00:30:31.920

about the kingdoms of this world. And he says, "Oh king, that brass kingdom, that gold kingdom, that silver kingdom, that kingdom representing iron and clay, all kingdoms of this world. The first, he said, is the gold. That's you, king, Nebuchadnezzar. And the second, while the first represents you and Babylon, the Babylonian

00:30:31.920 - 00:31:03.840

Empire, the second represents the Medes and the Persians. That kingdom, which you consider inferior to your own will rule over you. And then there will come the third kingdom, that kingdom of brass or bronze representing the Greeks, Alexander the Great. And then there will come the kingdom of iron and clay representing

00:31:03.840 - 00:31:32.680

Rome, the emperors, the Caesars of Rome. All of these are earthly kingdoms. These are the systems that we have built up, that somehow man has built up in order to bring in the kingdom and to realize his dream of destiny. And we've done this in a rather personal way. Many of us have depended on gold. Many people feel that if we have enough gold it's at its highest right

00:31:32.680 - 00:31:55.160

now and if we have enough gold everything would be all right. You just get enough gold. People have thought that in the past that if somehow they got enough gold that that would be the panacea for everything but gold is not the answer. Some have thought that somehow if we had silver and without

00:31:55.160 - 00:32:21.880

technology, if our technology is superior, that that will be sufficient. But we know that the technology of this world, that men's lives haven't been better because we had better technology. Men are still sinful. Some have said, "Well, with knowledge and with science, but yet if everybody gets a good education, that we'll have a good

00:32:21.880 - 00:32:44.360

world but we know that there are a lot of people who have all the degrees and all of the education and all of that's fine but we know that that's not the answer. Then some have said well now you've got the superiority in arms, the arms race and so we have our missiles, we have our armies, we have our navies and so

00:32:44.360 - 00:33:00.480

we think that violence is the answer, that might makes right but somehow all All of these kingdoms pass away. Our little systems have their day, and then they pass away, like the Tower of Babel representing the kingdoms of this world.

00:33:00.480 - 00:33:18.940

They all crumble into the dust. But there is a stone. There is a stone cut out of the mountains, a rolling stone. It represents that kingdom not made with human hands.

00:33:18.940 - 00:33:34.540

It's a kingdom not of this world. There is a stone cut out of the mountain that Daniel says that comes rolling down. And it comes rolling down, and it shatters this image made

00:33:34.540 - 00:33:52.320

of gold and silver and brass and iron and clay. For there is a stone representing the kingdom of God that's rolling in the world. It's the mysterious presence of God, and God is moving.

00:33:52.320 - 00:34:06.720

He's moving from high, high and lifted up, but yet God is moving in his world. That stone hewn out the mountain, tearing down the kingdoms of this world,

00:34:06.720 - 00:34:15.440

and nothing can stop it. It's beyond us. Matters not how strong the image may be, Nothing can stop this stone.

00:34:15.440 - 00:34:23.520

It's rolling. It's the power of righteousness. It's rolling. That stone is rolling.

00:34:23.520 - 00:34:34.160

It's the power of freedom, and the stone of freedom is rolling in the world. The stone is rolling. It's the power of love.

00:34:34.160 - 00:34:46.640

And nothing can conquer that stone. It keeps on rolling. So the stone is a divine mystery, the kingdom of God, rolling in history.

00:34:46.640 - 00:34:59.280

And as you see, the kingdom is not of this world. For the stone is hewn out of the mountain. It is above and beyond this world. It's God's gift.

00:34:59.280 - 00:35:12.480

Jesus said to his disciples on one occasion, "Fear not, little flock, for it is the Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." And so God is in the world.

00:35:12.480 - 00:35:24.480

Yes, there is this dream of destiny. God's kingdom is the gift of the spirit. Oh, God knows that we need certain things about which to subsist.

00:35:24.480 - 00:35:37.240

He knows that we need something to eat and clothes to wear. He knows that we need to have dwelling places. God knows those things. God provides for His children.

00:35:37.240 - 00:35:52.800

But he knows something that we need far more than that. For though we have all in abundance of the things of this world, there is still something more significant than all this, the kingdom of God.

00:35:52.800 - 00:36:04.840

And the kingdom of God is the gift of God's spirit. And unless we have God's spirit, the most important thing is missing. And that's why Jesus, in a dream of destiny,

00:36:04.840 - 00:36:34.680

dream yes of things to come of an order of life to come he said blessed are the poor in spirit for there is the kingdom of heaven that's a dream of destiny that's a dream of destiny blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted they shall be comforted you may mourn today you may have sorrow today but blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted.

00:36:34.680 - 00:36:55.120

That's a dream. That's a dream of destiny. Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth. That's a dream of destiny. Blessed are those that hunger and thirst after righteousness For they shall be filled. That's a dream of destiny.

00:36:55.120 - 00:37:09.840

Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. That's a dream of destiny. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Yes, that's a dream of destiny.

00:37:09.840 - 00:37:22.480

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they that are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of God.

00:37:22.480 - 00:37:33.160

That's the dream of destiny. In the here and now, in the midst of persecution, in the midst of hardship and trial, that's the dream of destiny.

00:37:33.160 - 00:37:47.120

Blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you and speak all manner of evil against you falsely. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven.

00:37:47.120 - 00:38:05.320

The dream of destiny. Well, maybe Cadenas's kingdom is gone. The kingdom of Cyrus is gone. Kingdom of Alexander the Great is gone.

00:38:05.320 - 00:38:21.340

- Kingdom of Rome, with all of its power. - Is gone. The kingdom of God is coming. This is the kingdom that Jesus announces.

00:38:21.340 - 00:38:37.340

He ushers in the kingdom. He's the interpreter of the divine will. He fulfills the dream himself. Other kings come and go.

00:38:37.340 - 00:38:50.340

This king shall reign forever. Who is this king? Who is this king? And the answer comes back, the Lord strong and mighty.

00:38:50.340 - 00:39:00.340

The Lord mighty in battle. He is the king. He is the king of glory. Yes, he is the king.

00:39:00.340 - 00:39:12.340

He rules. You see, God is in control of history. That's the thing we need to get, that God is in control. Storms may come, floods may rage.

00:39:12.340 - 00:39:35.340

God is in control of history and he shall reign. He shall reign until he shall have put all his enemies under his feet. He shall reign absolutely and completely. For he shall reign until the kingdoms of this world become the kingdom of our Lord and Christ.

00:39:35.340 - 00:39:52.340

That's good news. That's good news in Babylon. That's good news in the midst of captivity, that Jesus shall reign. Jesus shall reign where the sun doth his successive journeys run.

00:39:52.340 - 00:40:13.340

His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, till moons shall wax and wane no more. That's good news. That's good news in which those who are in bondage can shout, "Hallelujah! Jesus shall reign in our dream of destiny to know that there's a better day somewhere.

00:40:13.340 - 00:40:31.340

All hail the power of Jesus' name. Let angels prostrate fall. Bring forth the royal diadem and crown him Lord of Lords. Let every kindred, every tribe on this terrestrial ball

00:40:31.340 - 00:40:46.340

To him all majesty ascribe and crown him Lord of Lords. Lord of all. Make him Lord of all in your life. Not only now, but of all that is to come.

00:40:46.340 - 00:40:59.340

Make him Lord of your life, Lord of all. That is the message. That somehow fulfills our dream of destiny. We don't know what the future holds.

00:40:59.340 - 00:41:31.380

And the lectures from Bible Learning here really tell us that if we know that we have our hand in God's hand, that that will be enough. And as we come now to the hymn of invitation, we ask you to come to answer the call. For Jesus is calling us, He's calling us right now to be participants with Him in fulfilling that dream, that day when the kingdoms of this world become the kingdom of our Lord

00:41:31.380 - 00:41:54.140

and of His Christ. And as we sing the hymn of invitation, "Father, I stretch my hands to Thee," we want to sing that to the tune of Avon, "Father, I stretch my hands to thee. No other help I know if thou withdraw thyself from me,

00:41:54.140 - 00:42:06.420

oh, whether shall I go." I think the more familiar tune that Avon is that we know is, "Oh, for a closer walk with thee." But as we sing this hymn, we want you somehow to hook

00:42:06.420 - 00:42:32.860

up with the one who's able to control your destiny and my destiny, for he's able to fulfill our dreams. He's able to make our most sincere dreams, that are expressions of his love, come true. We ask you to come now, as we say, "Father, I stretch my hands to thee, no other I know.
