Daniel (Week 5) - You Have Been Weighed
from Presence Church Teachings Hosted by Presence Church
What does your life weigh? In this message from Daniel 5, Pastor Ben Mueller walks through the story of Belshazzar’s feast and the writing on the wall. On the very night Babylon was about to fall, Belshazzar gathered his nobles, wives, wine, and sacred temple vessels for one final act of defiant pride. Rather than humbling himself before God, Belshazzar clung to created things for significance. He praised gods of gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood, and stone, while dishonoring the God who held his life and all his ways in His hand. Daniel’s interpretation of the writing on the wall reminds us that our days are numbered, our lives will be weighed, and every kingdom apart from God will eventually fall. This sermon invites us to resist empty pride, pleasure, achievement, and self-made significance, and instead build our lives on Jesus. He alone gives our lives true weight, substance, and glory.
