The book of Daniel was written to teach the Sovereign Rule of God over all nations on earth. Listen to King Nebuchadnezzar,
At the end of the seven years, I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my understanding and the right use of my mind returned to me; and I blessed the Most High God and I praised and honored and glorified Him Who lives forever, Whose dominion is an everlasting dominion; and His kingdom endures from generation to generation.
(Daniel 4:34)
And all the inhabitants of the earth are regarded as nothing. God does according to His will as he pleases with the host of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth. No one can hold back his hand or say to him: ‘What have you done?’” (Daniel 4:35)
King Nebuchadnezzar sent this message to the people of every race and nation and language throughout the world: “Peace and prosperity to you! “I want you all to know about the miraculous signs and wonders the Most High God has performed for me. How great are his signs, how powerful his wonders! His kingdom will last forever, his rule through all generations. Daniel 4:1-3
This is the decision decreed by the Heavenly watchers, And the sentence by the word of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and He Gives it to whomever He chooses, And sets over it the lowest of men. Daniel 4:17
This is what the dream means, Daniel answered:
Your Majesty, this what the Most High has declared will happen to my lord the king. You will be driven from human society, and you will live in the fields with the wild animals. You will eat grass like a cow, and you will be drenched with the dew of heaven. Seven periods of time will pass while you live this way, until you learn that the Most High rules over the kingdoms of the world and gives them to anyone he chooses. Daniel 4:24-25
You will be driven from human society. You will live in the fields with the wild animals, and you will eat grass like a cow. Seven periods of time will pass while you live this way, until you learn that the Most High rules over the kingdoms of the world and gives them to anyone he chooses.’”
Daniel 4:32
And [Nebuchadnezzar] was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses; they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever He will. (Daniel 5:21)
In each of the above passages the name "Most High" or "Most High God" is used. It is the Hebrew name El Elyon, and means "the possessor of heaven and earth" (Genesis 14:22).
El Elyon - meaning “Highest” or “Exalted One,” emphasizes that God is the highest in every realm of life.
In the New Testament, Jesus is known as the Son of the Most High while the Holy Spirit is the power of the Most High. All who belong to Christ are revealed as sons and daughters of the Most High by imitating the Father in heaven. When you praise the Most High, you are worshiping the One whose power, mercy, and sovereignty cannot be matched.
The Holy Spirit guided the writers of Scripture to state emphatically that "the earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein" (Psalm 24:1; see also 1 Corinthians 10:26, 28).
The universe is God's by creative right. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.
He is upholding and maintaining and guiding and propelling the universe by His mighty word of power.
(Colossians 1:16-17, Hebrews 1:3).
And In Him we also were made God's heritage (portion) and we obtained an inheritance; for we had been foreordained (chosen and appointed beforehand) in accordance with His purpose, Who works out everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His Own will,
(Ephesians 1:11).
