Skip to content ANGLICAN COMMUNION DAILY FOUNTAIN DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY.
The Topic of Daily Fountain Devotional for 3rd December 2024 Is “Dare To Be A Daniel”
Read: Daniel 6: 16-24(NKJV)
16 So the king gave the command, and they brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions. But the king spoke, saying to Daniel, “Your God, whom you serve continually, He will deliver you.”
17 Then a stone was brought and laid on the mouth of the den, and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signets of his lords, that the purpose concerning Daniel might not be changed.
18 Now the king went to his palace and spent the night fasting; and no musicians were brought before him. Also his sleep went from him.
19 Then the king arose very early in the morning and went in haste to the den of lions.
20 And when he came to the den, he cried out with a lamenting voice to Daniel. The king spoke, saying to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?”
21 Then Daniel said to the king, “O king, live forever!
22 My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, so that they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent before Him; and also, O king, I have done no wrong before you.”
23 Then the king was exceedingly glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no injury whatever was found on him, because he believed in his God.
24 And the king gave the command, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions–them, their children, and their wives; and the lions overpowered them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they ever came to the bottom of the den.
ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 3RD DECEMBER 2024.
Daniel’s loyalty to God in observing his routine prayers led to his being thrown into the lion’s den, for daring to please God at the expense of the King’s order. There are some occasions when pleasing God becomes paramount irrespective of contrary legislations in place. Daniel damned the consequences of being killed by the king but rather upheld the name of the living God. After being thrown into the lion’s den, Daniel came out alive, unhurt, and victorious, because the Lord sent His angel to preserve his life (v.22).
Today, men and women like Daniel are wanted (those who will uphold the tenets of Scripture and the Christian faith) in the political arena, the church and society in general. God takes care of those who diligently and faithfully obey and serve Him like Daniel (cf. Joseph in Gen. 39: 9, 20-22). Pretentious Christian living should be replaced with righteous and faithful living, even in the face of threats and danger. The power to obey God and stand for Him comes from a settled understanding that God is really in control.
PRAYER: O Lord God, I surrender my life, my will and my all to you. Make me a faithful and committed Christian that will champion your course here on earth in Jesus’ name. Amen.
