What on earth is going on? With all of these conflicts and wars that affect so many including God's people, have things gotten out of control? Certainly not.
In Daniel 11, Daniel's vision points ahead to how things on earth will go from bad to worse. It is clear that God's people can trust that every detail is under God's sovereign control and that God will deliver his people.
It was true in Daniel's day, it was true in jesus' day, and it's true in our day and in the days to come.
