Is Daniel Missional?

I'm currently reading the story of Daniel as part of my devotional time. I love the story as it unfolds across 70 years following Daniel from youthful commitment to elderly faithfulness. 

But one of the things that can go unnoticed as we focus on Daniel's faithfulness is God's mission to Babylon. Daniel rises to prominence, not on account of his faithfulness, but because God speaks to the kings of the empire and uses Daniel to interpret the dreams, visions and signs he sends. At least that's one reading.

If we are willing to look, we cannot ignore that fact that God speaks beyond the confines of his people into the lives and situations of the nations and peoples around them. His purposes are fulfilled and his plans worked out through them.

So it would seem that Daniel is missional, dare one say even incarnational, as he lives out the mission of God in exile.
