About this episode

In this Bible Story, Daniel is saved from the jaws of ravenous lions. This speaks to the King of the Medes, Darius. And he proclaims the goodness of God, and the Lord became famous in the land. This story is inspired by Daniel 6. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.

Today's Bible verse is Daniel 6:22 from the King James Version.

Episode 167: King Darius of the Medes was now ruler in the land and he leaned heavily on the wisdom that God gave Daniel. As Daniel’s influence grew so did the jealousy of the other leaders around him. But Daniel was a righteous man and they could find nothing to accuse him of. So they conspired and made it a law that no one in the kingdom was allowed to worship anyone but Darius for 30 days. However, even the threat of being thrown into the lion’s den would not stop Daniel from praying to our God.
