THE POWER OF PRAYING TOGETHER

Daniel 2:17-19

Then Daniel went to his house, and made the decision known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, that they might seek mercies from the God of heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. So Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

This scriptures really touched me and really encouraged me. The King of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams which troubled his spirit and the sleep left him( Daniel 2:1) so he ordered all the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans and wisemen to reveal to him the dream and the interpretation or else he will execute them. The magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans and wisemen couldn't reveal for it was impossible for a mere mortal man to reveal the dream( Daniel 2:3-11). The king was furious and made immediate execution( Daniel 2:12-13) BUT one man who had the Spirit of God, full of counsel and wisdom heard of this and he made known to the king and asked for a time( Daniel 2:14-16). 

Then v17, Daniel went to his house and made known the decision( the trouble dream of the King and the reason of execution of all magicians, astrologers, wisemen and Chaldeans) to his friends Shadrach ( Hananiah), Meshach( Michael) and Abednego. This is what I call THE POWER OF PRAYING TOGETHER. God finally answered their prayers and for the secret was revealed to Daniel. 

Blessed be the name of God forever and ever

Who reveals deep and secret things

He who knows what is in darkness 

And light dwells in Him( Daniel 2:22).
