Daniels Vision of Messenger.

Daniel 10:1

[1]In the third year of the reign of King Cyrus of Persia, Daniel (also known as Belteshazzar) had another vision. He understood that the vision concerned events certain to happen in the future—times of war and great hardship.

This pertain to the tribulations that is written in the Book of Revelations and Matthew 24.

Matthew 24:7-10

[7]Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in many parts of the world.

[8]But all this is only the first of the birth pains, with more to come.

[9]“Then you will be arrested, persecuted, and killed. You will be hated all over the world because you are my followers.

[10]And many will turn away from me and betray and hate each other.

Revelation 6:6-9

[6]And I heard a voice from among the four living beings say, “A loaf of wheat bread or three loaves of barley will cost a day’s pay. And don’t waste the olive oil and wine.”

[7]When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living being say, “Come!”

[8]I looked up and saw a horse whose color was pale green. Its rider was named Death, and his companion was the Grave. These two were given authority over one-fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword and famine and disease and wild animals.

[9]When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of all who had been martyred for the word of God and for being faithful in their testimony.

It's depicting the Great anguish of the coming persecutions and oppressions. Times of Famine hunger that was Illustrated as the 4 Horsemen.

Daniel 10:2-4

[2]When this vision came to me, I, Daniel, had been in mourning for three whole weeks.

[3]All that time I had eaten no rich food. No meat or wine crossed my lips, and I used no fragrant lotions until those three weeks had passed.

[4]On April 23, as I was standing on the bank of the great Tigris River,

Three weeks could also be 3years and a half where Saints will be enduring in the tribulations. 

This is the Vision of Daniel. 

Daniel 9:20-27

[20]I went on praying and confessing my sin and the sin of my people, pleading with the lord my God for Jerusalem, his holy mountain.

[21]As I was praying, Gabriel, whom I had seen in the earlier vision, came swiftly to me at the time of the evening sacrifice.

[22]He explained to me, “Daniel, I have come here to give you insight and understanding.

[23]The moment you began praying, a command was given. And now I am here to tell you what it was, for you are very precious to God. Listen carefully so that you can understand the meaning of your vision.

[24]“A period of seventy sets of seven has been decreed for your people and your holy city to finish their rebellion, to put an end to their sin, to atone for their guilt, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to confirm the prophetic vision, and to anoint the Most Holy Place.

[25]Now listen and understand! Seven sets of seven plus sixty-two sets of seven will pass from the time the command is given to rebuild Jerusalem until a ruler—the Anointed One—comes. Jerusalem will be rebuilt with streets and strong defenses, despite the perilous times.

[26]“After this period of sixty-two sets of seven, the Anointed One will be killed, appearing to have accomplished nothing, and a ruler will arise whose armies will destroy the city and the Temple. The end will come with a flood, and war and its miseries are decreed from that time to the very end.

[27]The ruler will make a treaty with the people for a period of one set of seven, but after half this time, he will put an end to the sacrifices and offerings. And as a climax to all his terrible deeds, he will set up a sacrilegious object that causes desecration, until the fate decreed for this defiler is finally poured out on him.”

Daniel 10:5-7

[5]I looked up and saw a man dressed in linen clothing, with a belt of pure gold around his waist.

[6]His body looked like a precious gem. His face flashed like lightning, and his eyes flamed like torches. His arms and feet shone like polished bronze, and his voice roared like a vast multitude of people.

[7]Only I, Daniel, saw this vision. The men with me saw nothing, but they were suddenly terrified and ran away to hide.

Revelation 1:13-18

[13]And standing in the middle of the lampstands was someone like the Son of Man. He was wearing a long robe with a gold sash across his chest.

[14]His head and his hair were white like wool, as white as snow. And his eyes were like flames of fire.

[15]His feet were like polished bronze refined in a furnace, and his voice thundered like mighty ocean waves.

[16]He held seven stars in his right hand, and a sharp two-edged sword came from his mouth. And his face was like the sun in all its brilliance.

[17]When I saw him, I fell at his feet as if I were dead. But he laid his right hand on me and said, “Don’t be afraid! I am the First and the Last.

[18]I am the living one. I died, but look—I am alive forever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and the grave.

Daniel 10:7-13

[7]Only I, Daniel, saw this vision. The men with me saw nothing, but they were suddenly terrified and ran away to hide.

[8]So I was left there all alone to see this amazing vision. My strength left me, my face grew deathly pale, and I felt very weak.

[9]Then I heard the man speak, and when I heard the sound of his voice, I fainted and lay there with my face to the ground.

[10]Just then a hand touched me and lifted me, still trembling, to my hands and knees.

[11]And the man said to me, “Daniel, you are very precious to God, so listen carefully to what I have to say to you. Stand up, for I have been sent to you.” When he said this to me, I stood up, still trembling.

[12]Then he said, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day you began to pray for understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your request has been heard in heaven. I have come in answer to your prayer.

[13]But for twenty-one days the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia blocked my way. Then Michael, one of the archangels, came to help me, and I left him there with the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia.

[29]And now I have told you [this] before it occurs, so that when it does take place you may believe and have faith in and rely on Me.

[30]I will not talk with you much more, for the prince (evil genius, ruler) of the world is coming. And he has no claim on Me. [He has nothing in common with Me; there is nothing in Me that belongs to him, and he has no power over Me.]

Ephesians 6:12

[12]For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.

The Lord is making a statement here about the War we are on everyday and how Daniel interceed and fought with the heavenly angel, In this Last days we will be able to help hand to hand with angelic host of the Lord, but we must have the same attitude as Daniel. There will be time when we will be so weak, Hungry and And no strength at all but, The Lord will send his angels supernaturally to strengthen us just as How the Lord Send angel to Daniel and Elijah.

[4]Then he went on alone into the wilderness, traveling all day. He sat down under a solitary broom tree and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, lord,” he said. “Take my life, for I am no better than my ancestors who have already died.”

[5]Then he lay down and slept under the broom tree. But as he was sleeping, an angel touched him and told him, “Get up and eat!”

[6]He looked around and there beside his head was some bread baked on hot stones and a jar of water! So he ate and drank and lay down again.

[7]Then the angel of the lord came again and touched him and said, “Get up and eat some more, or the journey ahead will be too much for you.”

[8]So he got up and ate and drank, and the food gave him enough strength to travel forty days and forty nights to Mount Sinai, the mountain of God.

Daniel 10:14-18

[14]Now I am here to explain what will happen to your people in the future, for this vision concerns a time yet to come.”

[15]While he was speaking to me, I looked down at the ground, unable to say a word.

[16]Then the one who looked like a man touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and began to speak. I said to the one standing in front of me, “I am filled with anguish because of the vision I have seen, my lord, and I am very weak.

(The Vision of the coming Tribulations and the End)

[17]How can someone like me, your servant, talk to you, my lord? My strength is gone, and I can hardly breathe.”

[18]Then the one who looked like a man touched me again, and I felt my strength returning.
