Dan 2:34 “Look, and behold, a stone not cut by human hands, struck the image on its feet, which were of part iron and part clay, and shattered them.”

Dan 2:35 “Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were all smashed to pieces, like chaff in the summer threshing floor, which the wind scatters and they are not found anywhere.” And the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

7-Day Practice: Becoming a Daniel-type Overcomer in Babylon

Daniel 1:8 But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the king’s food or the king’s wine, so he asked the chief eunuch to allow him not to defile himself.

Daniel 1:11 Daniel said to the officials appointed by the chief eunuch to manage Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,

Daniel 1:12 “Try to give our servants ten days a meal of greens and water to drink.”

Daniel 1:15 After ten days they were found to be more handsome and stronger than all the young men who ate the king’s food.

Daniel 1:16 So the officials removed the food and wine that had been assigned to them and gave them only greens.
