After Daniel FASTED

 Daniel 9:20

King James Version

20 And whiles I was speaking, 

and praying, 

and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, 

and presenting my supplication before the Lord 

my God for the holy mountain of my God;


The previous posts showed how, and why, Daniel fasted:

As DANIEL fasted

DANIEL's fast and prayer


Here's what happened after the latter fast, and prayer:

Daniel 9:21-27

King James Version

21 Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, 

even the man Gabriel, 

whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, 

being caused to fly swiftly, 

touched me about the time of the evening oblation.

22 And he informed me, 

and talked with me, 

and said, 

O Daniel, 

I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding.

23 At the beginning of thy supplications 

the commandment came forth, 

and I am come to shew thee; 

for thou art greatly beloved: 

therefore understand the matter, 

and consider the vision.

4 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people 

and upon thy holy city, 

to finish the transgression, 

and to make an end of sins, 

and to make reconciliation for iniquity, 

and to bring in everlasting righteousness, 

and to seal up the vision and prophecy, 

and to anoint the most Holy.

25 Know therefore and understand, 

that from the going forth of the commandment 

to restore and to build Jerusalem 

unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, 

and threescore and two weeks: 

the street shall be built again, 

and the wall, 

even in troublous times.

26 And after threescore and two weeks 

shall Messiah be cut off, 

but not for himself: 

and the people of the prince that shall come 

shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; 

and the end thereof shall be with a flood, 

and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many 

for one week: 

and in the midst of the week 

he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, 

and for the overspreading of abominations 

he shall make it desolate, 

even until the consummation, 

and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.


Those verses prophesy of the end times, confirmed by JESUS to apostle John, in the Book of Revelation.


Daniel's heart, fast, and prayers are good examples of what apostle Peter says on this verse:

1 Peter 3:12

King James Version

12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, 

and his ears are open unto their prayers: 

but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.
