Daniel 7:15-18 Part 3 of 3

I, Daniel, was troubled by all I had seen, and my visions terrified me. So I approached one of those standing beside the throne and asked him what it all meant. He explained it to me like this: "These four huge beasts represent four kingdoms that will arise from the earth. But in the end, the holy people of the Most High will be given the kingdom, and they will rule forever and ever."
 
"will be given the kingdom, and they will rule forever and ever."
Isaiah 60:12-14  "For the nations that refuse to serve you will be destroyed. The glory of Lebanon will be yours--the forests of cypress, fir, and pine--to beautify my sanctuary. My Temple will be glorious! The descendants of your tormentors will come and bow before you. Those who despise you will kiss your feet. They will call you the City of the LORD, and Zion of the Holy One of Israel."
Luke 12:31-32  "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need. So don't be afraid, little flock. For it gives your Father great happiness to give you the Kingdom." (see verses 22-34)
Hebrews 12:28-29  Since we are receiving a Kingdom that is unshakable, let us be thankful and please God by worshiping him with holy fear and awe. For our God is a devouring fire. (see verses 22-29)
Revelation 2:26-28  "To all who are victorious, who obey me to the very end, 
    To them I will give authority over
        all the nations.
    They will rule the nations with an iron rod
        and smash them like clay pots.
They will have the same authority I received from my Father, and I will also give them the morning star!" (see verses 18-29)
Revelation 20:4  Then I saw thrones, and the people sitting on them had been given the authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony about Jesus and for proclaiming the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his statue, nor accepted his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They all came to life again, and they reigned for a thousand years. (see verses 1-6)
