God is willing to share truth with us, if we will turn to him in humility. He has done this for me.
"I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me"
- Daniel 4:34

But if not...
I want to have this kind of courage and trust in God, to believe regardless of the outcome.
Our God whom we serve
is able to deliver us
from the burning fiery furnace,
and he will deliver us
out of thine hand, O king.
But if not,
be it known unto thee, O king,
that we will not serve thy gods,
nor worship the golden image
which thou hast set up.
Daniel 3:17-18
I love Daniel's courage in testifying of the power of God to reveal truth.
"There is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets"
- Daniel 2:28
The prophets testify of Jesus Christ. Like Joseph and others before him, Daniel was a type of the Savior. Consider these verses:
"Bring certain of the children of Israel, and of the king’s seed, and of the princes; Children in whom was no blemish, but well favoured, and skilful in all wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability in them to stand in the king’s palace.
Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself."
- Daniel 1:3-4,8
Jesus Christ can heal and bring to life that which is dead, physically or spiritually. We just need to turn to Him, the Living Water.
"They shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh."
- Ezekiel 47:9
