“Lord, help me be more like your servant Daniel.

Fill me with his:

Wisdom.  Discipline.  Commitment.  Anointing.

Allow me to unwaveringly commit to you and to carry out the call that you have given me.  Help me to sway people BECAUSE of what you do inside of me.”

Daniel had won over the King.  He was wise.  He could interpret dreams.  He was the guy you wanted giving you information if you had all the power.  And because of this, many men were very jealous of him.  And so they influenced the king to pass a law that there would be no praying to God.  The law was passed and the document was signed.

Daniel 6 10 Now when Daniel learned that the document was signed, he entered his house (and in his roof chamber he had windows open toward Jerusalem); and he continued kneeling on his knees three times a day, praying and offering praise before his God, just as he had been doing previously. 

This is not a cute story.  It is a testimony to a believer’s faith in God.  And I love the line:  “just as he had been doing previously.”

Daniel’s world was God.  And, because of God, he had a gift that men and women do not have.  He had God in him and on him.

I often ask God what to do in various situations, seeking Him to lead me at the fork in the road.

But as I read this this morning, I realize that Daniel probably did not look at the fork in the road.  He looked at the vehicle he was riding on—as God was his transportation.

Before you make your FIRST decision today.

Before you even GET ON THE ROAD.

Before you worry about the laws of man and the worries of this world.

Kneel and pray before the God of Wonders and ask Him to be your driver.

When you do this, the only Lion you need to worry about is the one in charge of the Tribe of Judah.

In The Name of the Father and the 

Son and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
