Daniel in the Lions’ Den
Daniel continues praying faithfully even when a new law puts his life in danger.
The story in Scripture
Daniel’s enemies convinced the king to create a law against praying to anyone except the king. Daniel continued praying to God and was thrown into a lions’ den. God protected Daniel, and the king recognized God’s power.
Read it together in your Bible: Daniel 6.
