41 - Joy comes in the Morning!
Psalms 30: 4 Sing praise to the Lord, you saints of His, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name. 5 For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning. NKJV If anyone endured a night of torment and perhaps weeping also, it was the king of Babylon, under whom the Prophet Daniel served as a president. He had no idea when he signed the decree which ordered his subjects to pray to him only for 30 days, that this was really a trap to murder Daniel. He tried to find a loophole by which he could free his loyal servant, but eventually realised that if Daniel's God didn't save Daniel, certainly no mere human being like the king, could do so. This is what happened: Daniel 6: 19 Then the king arose very early in the morning and went in haste to the den of lions. 20 And when he came to the den, he cried out with a lamenting voice to Daniel. The king spoke, saying to Daniel, "Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?" 21 Then Daniel said to the king,"O king, live forever! 22 My God sent His angel and shut the lions' mouths, so that they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent before Him; and also, O king, I have done no wrong before you." 23 Now the king was exceedingly glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no injury whatever was found on him, because he believed in his God. NKJV Prayer: Father in heaven, thank You for servants of Yours, like Daniel, who are not afraid to trust You without knowing whether or not You would rescue them from persecution and death. Thank You for Your joy which comes in the morning. I actively look for Your joy this morning and thank You for it today, in Jesus' mighty name, Amen. |
