Daniel 10

 Suddenly, a hand touched me, which made me tremble on my knees and on the palms of my hands.  And he said to me, “O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you.” While he was speaking this word to me, I stood trembling. vv.10-11

Read chapter 10
Daniel sees a man described so uniquely that we may have a hard time discerning what this man looked like.  Seeing this man by the river causes Daniel to lose all his strength and  in a bowing position as we see him described trembling on his knees and palms.  Others that were around him didn't see the vision but a great terror fell on them and they fled.  This appears similar to Saul's conversion if you remember in Acts 9:3-9.  It's a wonder who this man is, some commentators say it is the angle Gabriel, but Daniel had already seen him in chapter eight and didn't respond this way.  Others say it is the preincarnate Jesus.  Compare some other verses in scripture that describe His appearance: Isaiah 1:26-28 

And above the firmament over their heads was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like a sapphire stone; on the likeness of the throne was a likeness with the appearance of a man high above it.  Also from the appearance of His waist and upward I saw, as it were, the color of amber with the appearance of fire all around within it; and from the appearance of His waist and downward I saw, as it were, the appearance of fire with brightness all around. Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the brightness all around it. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord.

Revelation 1:13-15 

"and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band.  His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire;  His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters;" 

The man speaks to Daniel and first thing He says is that Daniel is "greatly beloved," Oh how I can't wait to hear this words from Jesus' lips to me, I surely would become like Daniel and become weak in the knees.  He commands Daniel to standup and understand the words He's about to speak to him.  Daniel didn't let overwhelmingness stop himself to responding to this one.  Remember Daniel is in his 80s now and he's still learning and understand the Lord's words and this is why the Lord has come "for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words" (v.12), "He became a product of his prayer" as Beth Moore puts it.  Next time you pray envision what it might be like with the man Jesus Christ right in front of you.  How would you feel hearing Him call you "greatly beloved"?  In what ways are you feeling overwhelmed by God and how will you respond?
