The Lions Crushed All Their Bones

From today’s reading…

So the king ordered Daniel to be brought and cast into the lions’ den.

To Daniel he said,

‘May your God, whom you serve so constantly, save you.’”

Daniel continued to be filled with the Holy Spirit and found favor with Belshazzar’s successor, King Darius the Mede.

This created great jealousy among the “holy” “leaders” that served the king, so they tricked the king to frame Daniel.

Being a man of his word, Darius stood behind his decree, but he was rooting for Daniel.

When he saw that God had kept Daniel safe he gave the manipulators—and their wives and even their children—a taste of their own medicine…

Before they reached the bottom of the den,

the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.”

King Darius then declared that “the God of Daniel is to be reverenced and feared” throughout all his lands.

The course you take can and will impact not only yourself, but your spouse, your children, and even generations to follow. So even as you come face-to-face with the lions of life, avoid the shortcut and…

Stay the course. Keep the faith. Endure.
