Daniel was a faithful man of God, some would even say a prayer warrior who built his relationship with God by kneeling before Him 3 time a day and praying earnestly. He was favored above the presidents and princes because of his calm and humble spirit. Then because of jealousy, all the other princes wanted to find something to accuse him of and the only thing they could fault him with was that he was praying to his own God and wanted to use his faith against him. And so these men had a meeting with the King to make a law that anyone found praying to any other God or man would be thrown into the Lion’s den. However hearing of this threat/decree, Daniel did not stop praying and his faith in God didn’t waver, and so he was thrown into the Lion’s den. Even surrounded by danger, in this case, the lions, God was there for a faithful Daniel. In the book of Daniel 10:12, God said “Fear not Daniel, for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to humble yourself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come because of your words.”
