Lesson intro
DANIEL: FAITHFUL Through The Decades
We meet Daniel in captivity when he was perhaps about 16 years old (Daniel 1.1-7). From the beginning, "Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the king's choice food" (Daniel 1.8).
Daniel served under Babylonian and Persian rulers for at least 65 years. In his 80s, he was still going strong, battling in prayer against spiritual forces (Daniel 10). The angel Michael gave him these final words: "But as for you, go your way to the end; then you will enter into rest and rise again for your allotted portion at the end of the age" (Daniel 12.13).
Daniel was fearless, confident, dependent on God, and served faithfully under pagan rulers. God is looking for and calling "Daniels" 3 men and women of all ages - who will serve God through all their years.
