Dare to be a Daniel

Daniel was president of the Persian empire which stretched from modern day India to Ethiopia. He did not have the Internet or telephones. He was probably the busiest man in Babylon. He had high level officials under him and had to brief the King regularly. But in all this, Daniel found time to study Scripture and pray three times a day on his knees, in an upper chamber. If Daniel could do this, what excuse would you give God for being too busy for Him because of a 9-5 job that keeps you in a cubicle. NOBODY on earth today is as busy as Joseph, Daniel and Paul were. NOBODY on earth can justify why they do not find time for God. If Daniel could do it, I assure you you have no excuse. Daniel did exploits in his lifetime. When he was asked how he was able to achieve the things he did, he said “the people that do know their God shall be strong”-Daniel 11:32.
