God Knows Everything
by Dr. Paul Chappell
Daniel answered 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, shew 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. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these; As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth secrets maketh known to thee what shall come to pass. Daniel 2:27-29
In 2000, as part of their bicentennial celebration, the Library of Congress launched a special project. After the original library was burned by the British during the War of 1812, Congress purchased nearly 6,500 books from Thomas Jefferson's personal collection. Many of those books were destroyed in another fire in 1851. So the Library of Congress began searching for copies of all those books that had been lost in an effort to complete the restoration project. Many of them were rare and very difficult to find. Imagine how hard it must have been for Jefferson to collect them all. In our day we take the availability of knowledge for granted and expect to be able to look up any detail that we need to know almost instantly.
Yet despite the vast increase in information we see in our day, there is no corresponding increase in wisdom or understanding. That is because those come from God. Daniel pointed out to Nebuchadnezzar that the only reason he was able to interpret his dream was because God had revealed it to him. Remember, Daniel was not working from what Nebuchadnezzar told him—the king couldn't remember the dream. Only God could tell Daniel both what the dream was and what it meant. As our society works harder and harder to undermine the truth, it is more important than ever for us to seek the wisdom only God provides. He is the source of truth, His truth never fails.
Today's Growth Principle:
God offers to us all of the knowledge and wisdom we need to live rightly and glorify Him.
