Sabbath, Study, Serve 

Taking the Sermon Into Our Week 

Scripture of the Week: Daniel 6: 6-27

From the Sermon:

What makes Daniel so vital during this time is his __________________________________.

A plan that had been hatched in _____________________ simply used the king as a pawn. 

The law did not change Daniel’s pattern of ___________________ in any way, shape, or form.

Darius utters this statement that stands as a _________________ of sorts - “May your God, whom you faithfully serve, deliver you!”

Sometimes we act like Darius - 

Sometimes we act like those who conspired against Daniel - 

Reflection Questions:

How many of us are so deeply connected to God through our prayer and devotional life that we would never give it up, no matter what?

What does the story of Daniel reflect about your heart currently?

Prayer:

Lord, examine our hearts and point out to us the areas where we have strayed from our devotion to you. The places where we have let our own power dictate our actions. The times we have let jealousy take root. Forgive us and change us, we pray. Amen.
