S ~ Daniel 6:16&20
16 So at last the king gave orders for Daniel to be arrested and thrown into the den of lions. The king said to him, “May your God, whom you serve so faithfully, rescue you.”
20 When he got there, he called out in anguish, “Daniel, servant of the living God! Was your God, whom you serve so faithfully, able to rescue you from the lions?”
O ~ It was King Darius who clearly recognized that Daniel served God faithfully. Those who were jealous of Daniel knew it too. His faithfulness got him into trouble, and His faithfulness got him out of trouble. What an amazing testimony to Darius.
A ~ Daniel had a place to pray and set times to pray. He was a man faithful in prayer, and in giving thanks to God. May I be like Daniel - faithfully serving God, and being so predictable, that others can see my faithfulness - that will lead to a testimony.
P ~ Lord, I don't choose to be faithful in prayer and thanksgiving merely because of a priority based in duty, but rather a choice rooted in love - I love to be with you, and my heart is filled with thanksgiving.
