Daniel 5:12, 16
Holy Bible. New Living Translation copyright © 1996, 2004 by Tyndale Charitable Trust.
12 This man Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar, has exceptional ability and is filled with divine knowledge and understanding. He can interpret dreams, explain riddles, and solve difficult problems. Call for Daniel, and he will tell you what the writing means.”
16 I am told that you can give interpretations and solve difficult problems. If you can read these words and tell me their meaning, you will be clothed in purple robes of royal honor, and you will have a gold chain placed around your neck. You will become the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”
One criteria that determines greatness of a leader is the degree of difficulty of the problems which this leader is willing and able to tackle and solve. Great leadership is willing and able to roll up its sleeves, get down in the dirt and tackle life’s toughest issues. Daniel did that. Daniel ranks among history’s premiere leaders.
Every believer must tackle problem solving. Mankind’s greatest problem is sin and separation from God. The Christian has the answer. We must get down in the dirt and tackle life’s toughest issue! Tell someone about Jesus.
