Daniel 9:2-3 - It has been Daniel's disciple to study the Scriptures and to see their literal application to his life and to the circumstances of the times he lives in. The result is he is moved to make an appeal to God. The text clarifies six lessons from Daniel's response we should take to heart, and these are his Posture, his Plea, his Prayer, his Petition, his Passing, and lastly, his Penitance.
