”Look Up” Daniel 4

Pastor Matt continues our sermon series in Daniel with today's message entitled, "Look Up" from Daniel 4.
Lessons we learn when Nebuchadnezzar looks up
1) Humble yourself before God v37
2) Share the good news about what God has done v1-3
3) Praise God for what He has done v34-37
4) It's never too late to turn to God
5) God can use your greatest failures and humiliation to bring him glory
 
Lessons we learn when Daniel looks up
1) Speak the truth in love v19
2) Speak the truth regardless of the consequences
3) Call people to turn from sin and start practicing righteousness v27
 
But we can't do any of these things without first looking up and in faith humbling ourselves before King Jesus.
 
Matt references 2 books in his sermon:

1) How will I respond when I am pressured to worship the gods of this world?
2) Where am I placing my confidence?
