The Lions and Daniel
Daniel 6
Daniel knew that if he gave up his practice of daily prayer, he would be joining the rest of the kingdom in their idolatry and he had too much integrity to do that.
For the Christian, “Integrity” means there is similarity between our character and our creed, between our beliefs and our behavior.
First, the events of this sixth chapter of Daniel helps us to understand that Christian integrity shows.
The second lesson Daniel’s life teaches us is that living a life of integrity does not shelter you from the unfairness of life.
The third lesson Daniel’s life teaches us is that people of Christian integrity are people who know the importance of prayer.
In all honesty, for many of us, our natural response of the “Lions of life” is to panic and roar in rage against life’s unfairness or complain or criticize or become paralyzed and slip into a defeated sense of depression.
Eternal life does not just refer to the length of your life. It also refers to the quality of your life.
Another lesson Daniel’s life teaches us is that his example proves that by living a life of integrity we can have an amazing impact on this world.
