‏ Daniel 4:26

v. 26: Daniel said that when the king finally understood that heaven rules, his kingdom would be given back to him. The stump of the tree left in the ground was a sign that his rule would not end forever, but would be restored after he learned his lesson . God’s judgments are severe, but He also shows mercy and restores those who repent. God is called “the heavens” because His throne is in heaven, and He watches over everyone on earth (Psalm 103:19; Psalm 33:13 a).
