Daniel in the Lion's Den

It is a great thing to go on quietly with God, doing His will, and seeking in all things to please Him. We know that He will not suffer any of us to be tempted above that we are able for, but will with the temptation make a way of escape, so that we will be able to bear it. I enjoyed the word, Daniel “kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did afore time.”
That is a precious little touch by the Spirit of God. It is not enough to kneel down three times a day, but we need to pray always, and not only to pray, but to give thanks. An old and devoted Christian during the Covenanting struggles used to say, “It is the praying man who will get through.”
