Daniel's Vision

    "The ram which you saw, having the two horns--they are the kings of Media and Persia.
"And the male goat is the kingdom of Greece. The large horn that is between its eyes is the first king.
"As for the broken horn and the four that stood up in its place, four kingdoms shall arise out of that nation, but not with its power.
"And in the latter time of their
kingdom,
When the transgressors have
reached their fullness,
A king shall arise,
Having fierce features,
Who understands sinister schemes.
His power shall be mighty,
but not by his own power;
He shall destroy fearfully,
And shall prosper and thrive;
He shall destroy the mighty,
and also the holy people.
"Through his cunning
He shall cause deceit to prosper
under his rule;
And he shall exalt himself in his
heart.
He shall destroy many in their
prosperity.
He shall even rise against the Prince
of princes;
But he shall be broken without
human means.

"And the vision of the evenings and
mornings
Which was told is true;
Therefore seal up the vision,
For it refers to many days in the
future."

And I, Daniel, fainted and was sick for days; afterward I arose and went about the king's business. I was astonished by the vision, but no one understood it.
Daniel 8:20-27

No one understood Daniel's vision, so how am I gonna understand it. Well, I am brilliant and know everything; just kiddin'😉😬. I don't have a clue, but I will try.
This king is the epitome of evil: he knows how the world operates. With this knowledge he can manipulate others, probably with money. My research revealed that the Prince of princes is none other than God Almighty. I think most of this king's damage, destroying people, is done before he meets God. Love God and be aware.

Note - Gabriel had to explain this vision to Daniel. Daniel, as smart as he was, had trouble understanding some of his visions, and he wasn't afraid to admit it:

Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, "My lord, what shall be the end of these things?"
And he said, "Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
                      Daniel 12:8,9

Note #2 - this did happen with Alexander the Great and the kingdom of Greece. The four kingdoms were parts of the Greek empire that were divided amongst his four generals after his death. Pretty amazing! Tell God that you love Him.

The LORD bless you and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.

Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Please read your Bible.
