Daniel 10:14-21

Now I have come to help you comprehend what will happen to your people in the final days, for the vision pertains to a time still to come.” Upon hearing these words, I bowed facedown and was left speechless. Then suddenly, one who looked like a man touched my lips, and I was finally able to speak. So, I said to the one standing in front of me, “My lord, this vision has left me overcome, undone, and overwhelmed. I feel totally weak and helpless. My lord, how can I, your servant, even talk to you? I have no strength, and I can barely catch my breath!” Once again, the one who looked like a man gripped me and imparted strength to me. He said to me, “Be strong! Be very, very strong! Do not be afraid, for you are greatly loved and a precious treasure to God. God’s peace is yours.” As he spoke those words, I felt strength pour into me, and I said, “Now, I’m ready to listen to you, my lord, for you have given me strength.” He then said, “Don’t you know why I have come to you? I will unveil to you what is written in the Book of Truth: but first, I want you to know that there is none who fights alongside me against these forces of darkness except Michael, your people’s prince. 11:1 In the first year that Darius the Mede was king, I stood up to support Michael and fought with him against the prince of Persia. 10:20b Now, I am about to go back and fight the principality with him. Once we have defeated him, the principality over Greece will come next.”
