Hey All,

DANIEL'S DISCIPLINED PRAYER LIFE.

Daniel 6: 1-13

Imagine that the civil authorities in your country have enacted a law prohibiting prayer, public or private, upon penalty of death. Knowing that your very life is at stake you have a choice to make. You can obey the edict, you can go underground with your prayer life or you can continue on praying as you have always done and pay consequences.

Daniel faced this same choice and scripture is very clear on his decision. He continued to pray on his knees three times each day, just as he had done before. The spiritual disciplines Daniel had established early on stayed with him throughout his life. He refused to be intimidated by the threats of those in power. He refused to worship any other god. Daniel understood then what Jesus later talked about when He instructed people not to fear those who could only harm the body.(math 10.28)

Regardless of how pressured you feel by the demands of your life and schedule, no matter what ridicule you might face from those around you, dare to be a Daniel
and pray when you need to pray. God is greater than any intimidation or diversion you might face.



Regards
Adrine

Thanks Adrine,

it's about time we stood up for what we believe in and really fearlessly influence. It's about time we showed some boldness. The Bible says in Revelations that those who are lukewarm will be spat out of God's mouth.

The late civil rights leader, Martin Luther King Jr, said decades ago, "The measure of a mans character is not where he stands in moment of calm but where he stands in moments of controversy." 
 
Adrine you are right on! May the real christian men and women please stand up now!
