Daniel 6:24-24.........
"Then was the king 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 manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God. 24 And the king commanded, and they brought those men which had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in pieces or ever they came at the bottom of the den."
Who do YOU think was happier........Daniel or the King???
The KING. Daniel was never worried to begin with!
Now......can you imagine the party that was going on all night long. I think it was probably like the party the demons threw the night Jesus was placed in the Tomb. Everyone....and demons dancing around shouting WE GOT HIM. HE IS DEAD! HE IS DEAD.
I am positive that the same song was sung in the Kings palace that night.
OOOPS...........Sunrise brings a problem for these people! However......."What goes around, comes around"!
Sounds a lot like........"What soever man sew, so shall he also read" doesn't it?????
What about Matthew 7:2........
" For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."
There is a VERY IMPORTANT lesson here in this to see and learn and remember!!!!!
It is that when Daniel had served his sentence in the Lions den, IT WAS A DEATH SENTENCE!
HOWEVER, HE DID NOT DIE! HE SHOULD HAVE DIED, HE WAS PREPARED TO DIE, AND EVERYONE IN THE CITY SEPECTED HIM TO DIE, BUT HE DID NOT DIE!!!!!!!
That means from this point on according to the law of the Medes and Persianshe could not be executed for any reason. The law had been satisfied! Daniel had paid the penalty for breaking a Persian Law so when he came out alive the law had been satisfied. His dept had been paid once and for all forever.
This is EXACTLT what Jesus Christ did for YOU when He died on the cross. I believe also that He told Daniel the very same thing.
Jesus paid the price that the Law demanded for sin...DEATH. In the eyes of God, Christ stood in YOUR place so that now as a believer in Christ YOU are not guilty!
The king, having seen the power of God with his own eyes, just like his grandfather, acknowledged the God of Daniel.
