Dance Divine Presents "Daniel: The Most High Rules"

Join us for a thrilling ballet on the amazing life of the prophet Daniel.

The historical account unfolds when King Nebuchadnezzar conquered Jerusalem in 586 BC and ordered strong, healthy, young men of Judah's royal family back to the palace in Babylon. God also permitted King Nebuchadnezzar to take some of the holy vessels from the temple.

We meet Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah as teenage captives trained in the Babylonian culture to serve in the royal palace. Their names were changed to Belteshazzar, Meshach, Shadrach, and Abednego, however, the young men purposed in their hearts to be true to God and stay strong in the hostile, pagan culture. Because of this commitment to God, Daniel was given wisdom to interpret dreams and visions. Meshach, Shadrach, and Abednego were strengthened in their faith as they refused to worship a gold idol and were saved in the midst of a fiery furnace!

Daniel's ministry ran for over 70 years and he was faithful, always responsible and completely trustworthy as he served under four kings. King Belshazzar gave a great feast and as he was drinking wine, he gave orders to bring the holy vessels that Nebuchadnezzar had taken from the temple and drink from them. Suddenly, they saw the fingers of a human hand writing on the wall of the king's palace. Daniel was called in to interpret the handwriting on the wall, which foretold the end of the Babylonian kingdom. That very night the kingdom crumbled.

As Daniel was promoted under King Darius, his faithful commitment to God was tested as he prayed for deliverance in a dirty lion's den. Daniel was rescued from the lions and not a scratch was found on him because he trusted in his God!

What a life! Daniel is the only prophet to give us a panoramic view of world history from the days of Nebuchadnezzar to the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Praise the name of God forever and ever, for He has all wisdom and power. He controls the course of world events; He removes kings and sets up other kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the scholars. Daniel 2:20,21
