Daniel Fasted For Three Weeks Of Days And Is Heard

Visions and revelations continue to be unveiled…

“The Fast Of Daniel”

“The Angel Michael”

In the third year of Cyrus, king of Persia, a matter was named Belteshazzar — the matter was true, but for a long time off — to understand the matter, and to explain it to him through a vision.
10:1
I ate no desirable bread; meat or wine did not enter my mouth, and I did not anoint myself, until the completion of three weeks of days.
10:3
I, Daniel, alone saw the vision; the people who were with me did not see the vision, but a great fear fell upon them and they fled into hiding.
:7
So I remained alone. I saw this great vision. No strength remained in me; my robustness changed to pallor, and I could retain no strength.
:8
He said to me, “Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand and to fast before your God, your words have been heard; and I have come because of your words.
:12
I have come to make you understand what will befall your people in the End of Days, for there is yet a vision for [those] days.”
:14
He said, “Fear not, greatly beloved man. Peace to you! Grow stronger and stronger!” …
:19
However, I will tell you what is inscribed in truthful writing. No one reinforces me against these, except your [heavenly] prince, Michael;
:21

1 In the third year of Cyrus, king of Persia, a word was revealed to Daniel, who was named Belteshazzar, and the word was true, and for a long time, and he understood the word and he understood it in the vision.
2 In those days, I, Daniel, had been mourning for three weeks of days.
3 I ate no white bread, neither did meat nor wine enter my mouth, and I did not anoint myself until the completion of three weeks of days.
4 And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month, when I was beside the great river, the Tigris.
5 I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold a man clad in linen, and his loins were girded with a girdle of gold studded with jewels.
6 And his body was like tarshish, and his face was like the appearance of lightning, and his eyes were like firebrands, and his arms and his legs were like the appearance of brandished copper, and the sound of his words was like the voice of a multitude.
7 And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, but the men who were with me did not see the vision, but a great quaking fell upon them, and they fled into hiding.
8 But I remained alone, and I saw this great vision, and no strength was left within me, and my complexion was turned in me into corruption, and I could not summon up strength.
9 Then I heard the voice of his words, and when I heard the voice of his words, I fell into a sound sleep on my face, and my face was to the ground.
10 And behold, a hand touched me and moved me on my knees and the palms of my hands.
11 And he said to me, “Daniel, man of desirable qualities, contemplate the words I speak to you and stand upright, for now I have been sent to you.” And when he spoke to me this word, I stood quaking.
12 And he said to me “Fear not, Daniel, for since the first day that you set your heart to contemplate and to fast before your God, your words were heard, and I have come because of your words.
13 And the prince of the kingdom of Persia has been standing against me for twenty-one days, and behold Michael, one of the first princes, has come to help, and I remained there beside the kings of Persia.
14 And I have come to enable you to understand what will happen to your people at the end of the days, for there is yet a vision for those days.”
15 And when he spoke to me according to these words, I set my face to the ground, and I was dumbfounded.
16 And behold [one] like the image of the sons of man was touching my lips, and I opened my mouth and spoke, and I said to the one standing opposite me, “My lord, in the vision my joints turned upon me, and I did not summon up strength.
17 Now how will this servant of my lord be able to speak with this my lord?” And for me, from now on, strength will not stay in me, and a soul is not left in me.
18 And the one having the appearance like that of a man continued to touch me, and he strengthened me.
19 And he said, “Fear not, man of desirable qualities; peace be to you, be strong and be strong,” and when he spoke to me, I gained strength, and I said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
20 And he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? And now I shall return to battle with the prince of Persia; then I shall leave, and behold the prince of Greece is coming.
21 Indeed, I shall tell you what is inscribed in a true script, but no one strengthens himself concerning these matters except Michael, your prince.”
