Persistent Perseverance

When we get to Daniel 9, we see that even after 70 years in exile in Babylon, the Israelites were still sinning and needed Daniel to intercede with God on their behalf. Many years in exile had taken a toll on them. It's the same for us. We are in exile on this fallen earth until Jesus delivers us from it either by our death or His return. How can Daniel's words help us as we wait for our deliverance?
