Are You Dying to Pray? Daniel 6

The Reputation: His Recollection: Daniel 1 Forcibly Taken from His Family Forced to Take New Name Forced to Learn a Foreign Culture and Language Forced to Serve a Godless King and a Pagan Empire

An Interpreter of Dreams A Highly Respected Leader The Reputation: His Record: Daniel 1-2; 4-5 A Person of Integrity An Interpreter of Dreams A Prophet of God A Highly Respected Leader

The Reputation: His Rule: Daniel 6:1-3 His Rivals: Daniel 6:4-5

“Bloodthirsty men hate a man of integrity and seek to kill the upright —Proverbs 29:10

A Personal Investigation What if the government was investigating your own life? Would they find any lack of integrity? Would your impeccable integrity be the only thing that gets you into trouble?

Daniel’s Dramatic Irony The Crisis didn’t produce prayer in Daniel’s life. Instead, Daniel’s life of prayer produced the crisis! Daniel would rather die than not pray.

“Therefore, since Christ suffered “Therefore, since Christ suffered . . . arm yourselves also with the same attitude . . . . As a result, he does not live the rest of his earthly life for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God. For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do . . . . They think it strange that you do not plunge with them into the same flood of dissipation, and they heap abuse on you. But they will have to give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.” —1 Peter 4:1-5

The Rescue: Daniel 6:20-23

The Writing: Daniel 6:25-26a The Reverence: Daniel 6:26b-27 The Revival: Daniel 6:24-27 The Wrath: Daniel 6:24 The Writing: Daniel 6:25-26a The Reverence: Daniel 6:26b-27

The Reversal: Daniel 6:28

The Relevance: Set aside regular times for prayer. Set aside special times for prayer.
