Daniel's uncompromising purpose was one of the greatest contributing factors to his success and usefulness. The Plot Against Daniel ? Daniel 6:3-7 King Darius appointed 120 men as princes over his kingdom; over them were three presidents, and over the entire group Daniel was placed. As Daniel advanced in power, he kept a clear mind, a pure heart, and a strong hand. The princes and the presidents were highly displeased because Darius promoted Daniel. They despised his upright, honest, and honorable administration. They called in the last reserve of their diabolical ingenuity for plans to get rid of Daniel. Their secret scrutiny and thorough search revealed that he was faithful to all the interests of . ?

Wife & Children the kingdom. Those evil men remarked: "We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God." Daniel's enemies went to Darius and asked him to sign a decree binding all men for thirty days to abstain from wor shipping anything or anybody except the king himself. The decree contained the stipulation that anyone violating it should be cast into the lion's den. The Prayerfulness of Daniel ? Daniel 6 : 10-11 Daniel maintained his regular prayer habits. Even though a decree had been signed which made it unlawful to pray, he prayed as he had done before, knowing full well that there was a death penalty for it. The Preservation of Daniel ? Daniel 6: 16, 19-23 With triumphant tread those men, who had kept their malicious eyes on Daniel, went to the king and informed him of the violation of his decree. Sorely displeased with himself for having issued that decree, he sought to undo what he had done, but the law was unalterable. Daniel was cast into the lions' den, and to his enemies that meant the end of his career. To the king, his bedroom in the palace was a torture chamber that night. Early the next morning he went hurriedly to the lions' den. To his sur prise Daniel was alive and unharmed because God had pro tected him. King Darius rejoiced that God had preserved Daniel, and immediately issued an order to release him from the den. Daniel was one of the towering figures in the Old Testa ment. He had his faults, of course, because he was human, but this man of purpose and of prayer stands out as a suberb specimen of manhood. Because of his love for and loyalty to God he greatly enjoyed the presence, the protec tion, and the preservation of the heavenly Father. His loyalty to God never wavered. Boldly, wisely, and effec tively Daniel bore his testimony for God whom he trusted, loved, served and honored. + + + The Sunday School Lesson is sent in each week by Clear Creek Baptist School in Pineville, Ky.
