Daniel 2:11, 18-19
11 It is a difficult thing that the king requests, and there is no other who can tell it to the king except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh. 18 that they might seek mercies from the God of heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. 19 Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. So Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

The king of Babylon demanded truth and not lies for his dream to both be revealed and explained; revealed to show divine knowledge as the source, and known to show understanding. None but God could show this to a man - and Daniel prayed for mercy to know and understand. God chose to show the dream and its meaning in a dream with inspiration to understand and wisdom to explain. God honors those who honor Him, and delivers them. He reveals the truth that we might live in Him
