Dig In to the Bible
- Read: Daniel 6
- In This Passage: Daniel is a trusted advisor to King Darius. But the other advisors are jealous of Daniel, so they convince the king to sign a law that bans praying. Daniel still prays, so the king has to punish him by throwing him into a lions’ den. But God won’t let us down, and he rescues Daniel.
- Bible Point: God won’t let us down.
- Summary Verse: “O Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me” (Psalm 139:1).
