Prophecy and Prayer | Daniel 9

Daniel 9 is like a puzzle piece: on its own, it’s hard to understand, but when you see the bigger picture, its meaning becomes clearer. At its heart is a question familiar to us all: how will God deal with our deepest problem—sin? For Daniel and his people, sin had led to exile far from home. When Daniel prayed for the exile to end, God’s answer was bigger and more complex than he expected: God would not only end their exile, but ultimately put an end to sin itself.
