The Bible is full of stories of God doing amazing things for those He calls. One of the most famous seems to be good to be true, but it is!
Daniel, God’s man in exile in Babylon, insisted on worshipping the Lord, and not a human king. This was against the law. When those who were jealous of him urged the king to punish Daniel, the prophet was thrown into a lion’s den overnight.
And that was that. Or was it?
Next morning, the king was so anxious about Daniel, that he ran to the den and called out to him, to see if he was still alive.
Daniel 6:21–22 says, “Daniel answered, “May the king live forever! My God sent his angel, and he shut the mouths of the lions. They have not hurt me, because I was found innocent in his sight. Nor have I ever done any wrong before you, Your Majesty.”
When life threatens to rip you up, remember that the Lord has you. God is on your side, knows where you are, and will hide you in the palm of his strong hand.
Believe that He will.
Let’s pray.
Lord, this story inspires us to rely on you when times are really bad for us. Thank you for being our rescue. Amen.
