5. The Humbled King
Manage episode 444244755 series 3596773
Life in exile always means dealing with pride—both the pride around you and the pride inside of you. In Daniel 4 we see a proud king humbled, showing us the nature and effects of pride in our city and our own lives. We also see God’s grace providing a cure for pride, pointing ultimately to Jesus Christ. When we look up to receive his grace, humility and joy are released into our lives during our time in exile.
