Daniel 6:14-16 King Darius, in my opinion, spoke death when

he declared and signed a decree that whoever prayed to anyone but him would be thrown into the lion’s den.

Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat of its fruit.

At the time, the king didn’t think about the impact his decree would have. After all, the king thought highly of Daniel, he liked Daniel. That’s why it’s so important that we take every thought and word captive to make it obedient to Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:5)

After having Daniel thrown into the lion’s den, the king, not knowingly, spoke life over Daniel. He said in Daniel 6:16, “May your God whom you serve continually rescue you.”

Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love Him who have been called according to His purpose.

Did Daniel love God? Daniel got down on his knees 3 times a day to

give thanks to God. Daniel was saved because he believed and trusted God, he had faith God was going to be with him and protect him.

Daniel 6:19-22 In verse 22 it also states that Daniel said,

“Nor have I ever done wrong before you, O King”. Not only did Daniel worship and believe God, he also submitted to authority. He obeyed and respected the king, even though God was first in his life and God honors that.

Romans 13:1-3 Daniel was obeying God’s Word and because

Daniel obeyed God’s Word, he was saved. Nothing is impossible with God, but we must be doing/obeying His Word.

Proverbs 17:13 If a man pays back evil for good, evil will never leave his house.

Galatians 6:7 You reap what you sow. These men planned deception and evil and

it was returned to them and their families. Evil took over their house.

If you sow death and destruction, you are going to get it back. God’s Word says this.
