Daniel 6:16
Then the king gave orders, and Daniel was brought in and cast into the lions' den. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Your God whom you constantly serve will Himself deliver you.”
{{{ Interesting the King who was not a follower of the one living GOD Makes the statement
“Your God whom you constantly serve will Himself deliver you.”
Your God whom you constantly:
this is the key to having the Lord GOD on your side when evil plots and comes against you. To be constantly serving Him.
Read the recall of Daniel and the lion’s den below, or better yet get take the time to pick up a bible get off by yourself, pray and ask the Lord GOD to open your heart and mind to the truth of what the Bible is telling us, and then read Daniel 6 )))
Daniel 6:20
When he (the King) had come near the den to Daniel, he (the King) cried out with a troubled voice. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you constantly serve, been able to deliver you from the lions?”
{{{ And yet aging the non-follower of the only living GOD makes the statement
“Daniel, servant of the living God “, “whom you constantly serve”
What God do your serve?
And how often to you actually serve it or Him?
Do you spend more time with your phone, tablet, laptop or computer then with the only living GOD?
if so you might want to reconsider what or who your GOD is, and who or what you are or serving. }}}
Daniel 6:24 The king then gave orders, and they brought those men who had maliciously accused Daniel, and they cast them, their children and their wives into the lions' den; and they had not reached the bottom of the den before the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.
{{{ just like with those who maliciously accused Daniel, because of Him constantly serving the only living GOD, know that if you are constantly serving the Lord GOD He will do the same in your life.
i was reminded of Romans 8:28-31
Romans 8:28-31
¶ And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.
What then shall we say to these things?
If God is for us, who is against us?
We are not being accused by man alon but rather by the evil that he serves and allows to control him, this is who is against us, he is against us because we serve the one most high GOD and serve Him and Him alone.
Conclusion: This world hold nothing for me, my home is not here on earth but in Heaven.
i will not fear mankind who can only kill the body,
but only Father GOD who can not only kill the body but can send the soul to the pit of hell.
Father GOD wills that no man should parish and go to hell,
by sending His Son to earth to hang on a cross for us to take our place and pay our debt for all the sins we have committed, to return to life three days later victories over death, hell and the grave, holding the keys to all three,
He has set us free.
It is your choice to except His freedom and His forgivness
that He has purchased for you.
i chose to except that gift and to constantly serve Him, will you.? }}}
Here is Daniel 6,
and the account of what lead up to Daniel being thrown in to the lion’s den. And what happened afterwards. Take the time to read and see what the Holy Spirit may show and say to you.
Daniel 6:1-5
¶ It seemed good to Darius to appoint 120 satraps over the kingdom, that they would be in charge of the whole kingdom, and over them three commissioners (of whom Daniel was one), that these satraps might be accountable to them, and that the king might not suffer loss.
Then this Daniel began distinguishing himself among the commissioners and satraps because he possessed an extraordinary spirit, and the king planned to appoint him over the entire kingdom.
Then the commissioners and satraps began trying to find a ground of accusation against Daniel in regard to government affairs; but they could find no ground of accusation or evidence of corruption, inasmuch as he was faithful, and no negligence or corruption was to be found in him.
Then these men said, “We will not find any ground of accusation against this Daniel unless we find it against him with regard to the law of his God.”
Daniel 6:6-9
¶ Then these commissioners and satraps came by agreement to the king and spoke to him as follows: “King Darius, live forever!
“All the commissioners of the kingdom, the prefects and the satraps, the high officials and the governors have consulted together that the king should establish a statute and enforce an injunction that anyone who makes a petition to any god or man besides you, O king, for thirty days, shall be cast into the lions’ den.
“Now, O king, establish the injunction and sign the document so that it may not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked.” Therefore, King Darius signed the document, that is, the injunction.
Daniel 6:10-13 ¶
Now when Daniel knew that the document was signed, he entered his house (now in his roof chamber he had windows open toward Jerusalem); and he continued kneeling on his knees three times a day, praying and giving thanks before his God, as he had been doing previously.
Then these men came by agreement and found Daniel making petition and supplication before his God.
Then they approached and spoke before the king about the king’s injunction, “Did you not sign an injunction that any man who makes a petition to any god or man besides you, O king, for thirty days, is to be cast into the lions’ den?” The king replied, “The statement is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked.”
Then they answered and spoke before the king, “Daniel, who is one of the exiles from Judah, pays no attention to you, O king, or to the injunction which you signed, but keeps making his petition three times a day.”
Daniel 6:14-15
¶ Then, as soon as the king heard this statement, he was deeply distressed and set his mind on delivering Daniel; and even until sunset he kept exerting himself to rescue him.
Then these men came by agreement to the king and said to the king, “Recognize, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians that no injunction or statute which the king establishes may be changed.” Daniel in the Lions' Den Dan
6:16-18 ¶ Then the king gave orders, and Daniel was brought in and cast into the lions’ den. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Your God whom you constantly serve will Himself deliver you.”
A stone was brought and laid over the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signet rings of his nobles, so that nothing would be changed in regard to Daniel.
Then the king went off to his palace and spent the night fasting, and no entertainment was brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.
Daniel 6:19-24
¶ Then the king arose at dawn, at the break of day, and went in haste to the lions’ den.
When he had come near the den to Daniel, he cried out with a troubled voice.
The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you constantly serve, been able to deliver you from the lions?”
Then Daniel spoke to the king, “O king, live forever!
“My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths and they have not harmed me, inasmuch as I was found innocent before Him; and also, toward you, O king, I have committed no crime.”
Then the king was very pleased and gave orders for Daniel to be taken up out of the den. So, Daniel was taken up out of the den and no injury whatever was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.
The king then gave orders, and they brought those men who had maliciously accused Daniel, and they cast them, their children and their wives into the lions’ den; and they had not reached the bottom of the den before the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.
Daniel 6:25-28
¶ Then Darius the king wrote to all the peoples, nations and men of every language who were living in all the land: “May your peace abound!
“I make a decree that in all the dominion of my kingdom men are to fear and tremble before the God of Daniel;
For He is the living God and enduring forever,
And His kingdom is one which will not be destroyed,
And His dominion will be forever.
“He delivers and rescues and performs signs and wonders In heaven and on earth,
Who has also delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.”
So, this Daniel enjoyed success in the reign of Darius and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
