—Daniel 6:15-18
by: Linda Harris.
Darius said he trusted God to rescue Daniel. However, Darius spent a sleepless night waiting for the outcome. Sinclair Ferguson writes, “It is better to be a child of faith in a den of lions than a king in a palace without faith.”
Genuine trust in God brings peace. “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. … If you do this, you will experience God’s peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7, NLT). When trouble comes, do you worry? Or do you allow God to guard your heart and mind with his peace?
