Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God. –Daniel 6:23
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. –Philippians 2:11
For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure. –Philippians 2:13
I just love the quote from Daniel 6:23 – “no hurt was found upon him” because of his trust in God. What was true for Daniel is also true for us!

Yes, He does! I have to remind myself that God is FOR me (on my side). Powerful stuff when you think on it, no?

Yes so powerful which is why it’s so hard for us fleshy humans to believe, I feel. We aren’t use to that level of love and commitment.

I feel so blessed God gave me the words you needed to hear. Whenever I say something that someone needs, I know that is Him :):) So sorry for the delay in my reply, your comment ended up in the spam bin. I don’t know how that happens, especially since it was a reply to me, on a reply to YOUR original comment hahaha. God bless you my friend, and keep those daily thankfuls coming, they are a blessing :)

Daniel in the Lions den was a wonderful story. The faith Daniel had in the Lord was enormous. Lovely post as always Margaret.

Yes, it is and the fact that the king also believed in God. Telling Daniel your God will keep you safe. It was as if God was reinforcing to Daniel, I am here with you. God is amazing!!
