OBEDIENCE

WISDOM and

PRAYER

DANIEL DISPLAY PERFECT OBEDIENCE TO GOD

But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.

He purposed in his heart, he had already agreed with himself not to disobey God.

one thing you should know is that when you have acknowledged, that you don't want to fall into sin, then you ask God to strengthen you.

note this that Daniel was a slave in the land of Babylon, he does not have the power to refuse the King's food, neither does he has the authority to ask for his own food that he's supposed to eat. But what we read at

DANIEL DISPLAY WISDOM





DANIEL WAS PRAYERFUL









Daniel 6 - shows us how Daniels enemies conspired against him to have him killed.

Daniel was promoted over all the governors and satraps under Darius.

They wanted him out, but they could not find any fault in him.

So they devised a way to get him executed by getting the king to sign a law saying that no one could pray for 30 days except to the king. If they did, they were to be case into a den of lions.

After this was passed, Daniel went home, opened his windows, and prayed to God.

His enemies saw him and reported him to the king.

The king did not want to deliver Daniel to the lion's den.

But the law was unchangeable under Medopersian rule.

So Daniel was cast into the lion's den.

The king fasted and prayed that evening.

He rose up early in the morning.

He called out for Daniel.

Read Daniel 6:22, 23.
