"Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of Heaven.
"Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
"He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him." Daniel 2:19-22

I feel as if God has everything under his power, he knows who we are, even if we don`t admit who we are, and some, I don`t think even know for sure who they are yet, they are followers of what ever they think is cool at the time, which is sad. when we have secrets, we think were going to get away with, he knows these secrets, and were not getting away with anything, who knows whats around the corner for those peole that are doing things they know are not right, and when they are revealed ,who will these people call on, to save them from the sins they have committed?

I don't really get what you mean about how I feel. What do you feel? Is there something troubling you about them. Jehovah revealed many things to Daniel, including the procession of the ruling world powers down to our day, he let us know the times that the gentiles would rule up to the times his kingdom in the heavens would once again start ruling in the earth. A lot of prophecies through Daniel.

Daniel is one of three books of the Bible that you can consider "apocalyptic" literature. The other two are Revelation and a large portion of Ezekiel.
Apocalyptic literature is always written during a time of persecution to give the people hope for better times. It often takes the form of prophecy, and is giving people the promise of a better future if they can just hang in there through the bad times.
This is a perfect example of that, promising the people that God's in control, and that times will get better.

God is King and He contains all wisdom, knowledge and power. It is in his control to reveal or hide a secret and He can see all things.

Revealing verses for they tell of the wisdon and knowledge of God.It also shows how God is still very much involved in the workings of mankind. These verses tell us of the power of God and also of Him being the creator for it was He that made time and the seasons.

It was the answer that God gave to Daniel to save his friends when they could not give King Nebuchadnezzar and answer to his dream.All very true.
slightly different in the NEW JERUSALEM BIBLE version.

They make me wonder why anybody wrote that book. Not nearly as much as why people still read it though, and pore over it. Just silly.
