THE LIFE OF DANIEL DEMONSTRATED HOW TO LIVE FOR GOD
Daniel is the evidence that lived a life of preparation by living for God.
Daniel experienced God and could not live a life of waste; he lived for God.
Daniel and his friends were exiles and captive servants rather than traditional domestic slaves.
They were forcibly taken from Jerusalem by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon to serve the royal court.
Despite the challenges of life, Daniel lived a life, a kind of preparation to live for God; he walked worthily to gain the attention of God.
It was the desire that enabled Daniel to live for God.
Daniel 1:8 records of Daniel,“But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. Now God had brought Daniel into the favor and goodwill of the chief of the eunuchs.”
The purpose in the heart of Daniel prepared him not to live outside of God.
Daniel did not defile himself, the evidence of giving regards to God.
The life of Daniel is for all to know that it is not impossible to live for God.
The Bible identifies the importance of the description of living for God, to walk worthy of His glory:
Daniel had a purposed heart to walk with God.
Daniel had a custom approach seeking God in prayer (three times a day) that is undeniable.
Living for God was glaring in the life of Daniel.
An unbelieving king identified that Daniel lived for God when King Darius testified that Daniel served God continually.
By the testimony about Daniel, living for God as a way of life, walking worthy before God, is not impossible for one who understands the will of God for all.
Revelation 4:11 speaks about God: “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, and by Your will they exist and were created.”
All are to live for God, existing for Him.
From this moment, as one with the life of breath, live life for God, walk worthy of the glory of God.
