Right now I'm doing Beth Moore's Daniel Bible study. This chunk of Scripture I'm memorizing this month comes from that. Daniel prayed that God would reveal the king's dream and its meaning. When He did, Daniel praised Him. I love how Daniel says at the beginning that God has wisdom and power, and at the end God has given him wisdom and power. I need to have a habit of praying, expecting an answer, and praising when He does. He alone has the wisdom and power that I need.
Daniel 2:19b-23
Then Daniel praised the God of heaven and said:
"Praise be to the Name of God for ever and ever;
wisdom and power are His.
He changes times and seasons;
He sets up kings and deposes them.
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, O God of my fathers:
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."
NIV
