God Will Punish Selfish Behavior
Daniel 5:21. God will ultimately destroy people that continue to display selfish behavior. God does not desire to destroy us because He is a loving God, but just as a loving parent He will punish us. A good example of this is what happened with King Nebuchadnezzar in the book of Daniel. The king had become proud, and God brought him down to correct him. God made "his heart... like the beast. For seven years King Nebuchadnezzar lived in a pig sty and ate grass with the oxen. He was not restored to his kingly position "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).
DANIEL 5 BIBLE SCRIPTURE Daniel 5:21, "And he 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."
