00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.800
 We're making our way through. This is the last sermon in our series of the life of Daniel,

00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:14.720
 in Daniel chapter 6. But the next couple of weeks, we're going to still be in Daniel, kind of bringing

00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:22.060
 things together for us in Daniel chapter 7, kind of looking at the broad theme of this kingdom,

00:00:22.060 --> 00:00:28.899
 this eternal kingdom of God that kind of finds its way, kind of crystallizes and summarizes itself

00:00:28.899 --> 00:00:36.120
 for us there in Daniel chapter 7, where the Ancient of Days is entrusting the kingdom to the Son of

00:00:36.120 --> 00:00:43.200
 Man. And of course, we know who the Son of Man is, who Jesus Christ, who kind of embraced that identity

00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:49.440
 and kind of wore that for himself during the Gospels. And so we're going to see this eternal

00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:55.540
 kingdom coming to us in Daniel chapter 7. And then Bill Williamson will be able to teach through

00:00:55.540 --> 00:01:00.760
 Daniel chapter 9, kind of the prayer that's there in a couple of weeks. We want to give you one last

00:01:00.760 --> 00:01:09.260
 glimpse at the life of prayer in the person of Daniel. And it is impactful. I would encourage you,

00:01:09.260 --> 00:01:15.660
 of course, to be here. Turn with me, if you would, to Daniel chapter 6. If you're using the Pew Bible,

00:01:15.780 --> 00:01:25.480
 it's on page 743. For those of you who have not been here in our series, I want to just kind of

00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:32.620
 try to catch you up to where we are. We're in the second half of Daniel chapter 6. And the chapter

00:01:32.620 --> 00:01:39.180
 kind of starts this way, kind of moving even back to Daniel chapter 5, verse 30 and 31. It says,

00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:47.439
 that very night, Belshazzar, the Chaldean king, was killed. And Darius the Mede received the kingdom,

00:01:48.100 --> 00:01:56.360
 being about 62 years old. Now verse 1 of chapter 6. It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom 120

00:01:56.359 --> 00:02:02.659
 set traps to be throughout the whole kingdom. Now this theme that we're going to pick up again

00:02:02.659 --> 00:02:10.000
 next week is to kind of trace these subsequent kingdoms, the rise and the fall of empires, this

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:17.419
 Babylonian empire, Babylonian kingdom, and now the rise of this Persian kingdom.

00:02:18.419 --> 00:02:24.840
 Kingdoms will come and go. Kings will come and go. But what we're going to see and what we have seen

00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:34.659
 in Daniel chapter 6 is that God's kingdom remains. It's God who is instrumental in raising up kings

00:02:34.659 --> 00:02:46.400
 and putting kings down. And it's God's servant, Daniel, who remains steady. This fixture of constant,

00:02:46.480 --> 00:02:52.939
 this constant fixture that has been since the beginning of Daniel and we'll now, we'll see in Daniel chapter 6,

00:02:52.939 --> 00:03:02.319
 as a testimony to the enduring quality of God's kingdom. Daniel will be promoted again. As we saw last week,

00:03:02.359 --> 00:03:09.340
 he's now the chief official over all of the officials over the entire kingdom of Media Persia.

00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:17.479
 We saw that while he was a gifted individual, it wasn't because of his networking ability.

00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:24.500
 It wasn't because of his LinkedIn account, pulling the right strings, positioning himself in the right way,

00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:31.419
 jockeying for position, kind of edging people out because of his skill and authority and his ability

00:03:31.419 --> 00:03:39.319
 to position himself. What Daniel does so consistently is he devotes himself to God.

00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:46.939
 The thing that has amazed me and has been an encouragement to me throughout the testimony of this book

00:03:46.939 --> 00:03:58.840
 is the absolute commitment of Daniel to trust in God regardless of the shake-up and uncertainty of situations.

00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:05.560
 Daniel was steady. Daniel was fixed. Daniel was devoted.

00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:14.120
 His character. We see the testimony of his character even last week, but then pushing into chapter 5,

00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:19.240
 where we find in verse 11 of chapter 5, the spirit of the gods was in him.

00:04:20.540 --> 00:04:23.860
 He is light and understanding like the wisdom of the gods.

00:04:24.340 --> 00:04:27.319
 Then in verse 12, an excellent spirit was in him.

00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.920
 Then again in chapter 6, we find in chapter 6 verse 3,

00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:34.620
 He was distinguished from the others. Why?

00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:38.280
 Well, because an excellent spirit was in him.

00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:43.220
 And when the other officials who were jockeying for position,

00:04:43.640 --> 00:04:46.060
 trying to find a way to ruin Daniel,

00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:51.080
 they go on this examination process and they, what do they find in verse 4?

00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:57.360
 They could find no ground for complaint or any fault because he was faithful.

00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:01.580
 No error or fault was found in him.

00:05:03.100 --> 00:05:08.800
 We come to understand that it's God who continues to promote Daniel to his position.

00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:11.520
 It's God who puts kings down.

00:05:11.860 --> 00:05:14.100
 It's God who raises his servants up.

00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:18.860
 It's God who keeps putting and pushing Daniel into the forefront.

00:05:19.900 --> 00:05:22.060
 It's what we find in 1 Peter chapter 5.

00:05:22.060 --> 00:05:26.259
 It's the way in which God works with his servants.

00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:29.160
 Beginning in verse 5, it says,

00:05:29.300 --> 00:05:33.220
 Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility towards one another.

00:05:34.280 --> 00:05:38.579
 For God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.

00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:42.160
 So humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God,

00:05:42.699 --> 00:05:46.939
 so that at the proper time he may exalt you.

00:05:46.939 --> 00:05:51.139
 We saw last week, and we'll see this again this morning,

00:05:51.939 --> 00:05:58.600
 that it was Daniel's humility and Daniel's faithfulness that positioned him for usefulness.

00:05:59.620 --> 00:06:04.860
 You see, God delights in using humble, faithful servants.

00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:11.000
 And God understands that his humble, faithful servants are useful.

00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:13.980
 They're useful to wait for God's timing.

00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:19.399
 They're useful to point to who God is, not to draw attention to themselves.

00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:23.000
 And that's what's happening through this entire book of the life of Daniel,

00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:28.439
 that Daniel keeps showcasing and spotlighting the work of God in his life,

00:06:28.720 --> 00:06:30.220
 not drawing attention to himself.

00:06:31.980 --> 00:06:37.459
 But this, of course, makes all of the officials in this new kingdom really upset.

00:06:37.459 --> 00:06:43.379
 Why does this foreigner keep getting pushed to the forefront?

00:06:44.019 --> 00:06:48.000
 Why is this exile from Judea in charge of everything?

00:06:48.979 --> 00:06:50.939
 So these officials concoct a plan.

00:06:51.500 --> 00:06:55.560
 They devised this plan of, after putting Daniel's life under the microscope,

00:06:56.159 --> 00:06:59.359
 they're unable to find anything to ruin him.

00:07:00.339 --> 00:07:06.839
 Instead, what they need to do is they need to use his faithfulness against him.

00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:11.459
 They essentially weaponize Daniel's faith and devotion to God

00:07:11.459 --> 00:07:15.379
 and seek to use that as an instrument to destroy him.

00:07:16.339 --> 00:07:17.859
 They've come up with this plan.

00:07:18.819 --> 00:07:27.579
 They're going to invite and pray on the pride and the seeming logic of King Darius

00:07:27.579 --> 00:07:32.419
 and convince him that he needs to kind of pull in the loyalties of his kingdom

00:07:32.420 --> 00:07:36.560
 and have all of those subjects in his kingdom pray to him.

00:07:38.080 --> 00:07:38.980
 So the king agrees.

00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:40.840
 He signs this decree.

00:07:41.939 --> 00:07:45.080
 And without realizing it, he signs Daniel's fate.

00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:49.780
 The consequence of which was to cast Daniel into the lion's den,

00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:52.500
 which we'll look at in more detail this morning.

00:07:53.700 --> 00:07:57.960
 Daniel hears this decree and immediately goes to his house.

00:07:57.959 --> 00:08:01.019
 He immediately goes up to his roof.

00:08:01.339 --> 00:08:03.799
 He opens the window of his lattice.

00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:09.180
 He directs his focus to Jerusalem, to where the temple would have been,

00:08:09.779 --> 00:08:14.740
 where the God of Israel and his presence was most fully realized.

00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:17.979
 And he prays to the God of Israel.

00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:22.240
 Of course, he's caught in the act, as it were,

00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:25.019
 and the accusation is brought before the king.

00:08:25.019 --> 00:08:30.060
 And the king, in anguish, labors to deliver Daniel.

00:08:31.280 --> 00:08:35.740
 Deliverance will be our key theme, our key word throughout this passage.

00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:37.940
 We're going to see this on several occasions.

00:08:38.100 --> 00:08:40.879
 And just at the beginning of the onset of this study,

00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:46.360
 just underline for me the words that we find in this section,

00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:48.500
 beginning in verse 14, this word deliver.

00:08:48.500 --> 00:08:50.700
 In verse 14 it says,

00:08:50.899 --> 00:08:54.000
 And the king set his heart to deliver Daniel.

00:08:54.139 --> 00:08:54.720
 That's our word.

00:08:55.419 --> 00:08:56.399
 Then in verse 16,

00:08:57.000 --> 00:08:58.399
 Then the king declared to Daniel,

00:08:58.539 --> 00:09:02.000
 May your God, whom you serve continually, deliver you.

00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:03.620
 Then in verse 20,

00:09:04.340 --> 00:09:05.340
 The king declared to Daniel,

00:09:05.460 --> 00:09:07.000
 O Daniel, servant of the living God,

00:09:07.259 --> 00:09:11.759
 has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you?

00:09:12.559 --> 00:09:14.279
 Then finally in verse 27,

00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:15.980
 Speaking of God,

00:09:15.980 --> 00:09:18.980
 For he delivers and rescues.

00:09:18.980 --> 00:09:22.539
 He works signs and wonders in heaven and on earth.

00:09:22.920 --> 00:09:26.560
 He who has saved Daniel from the power of the lions.

00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:28.080
 Spoiler alert,

00:09:28.659 --> 00:09:31.180
 God saves Daniel from the lion's den.

00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:34.440
 But why?

00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:40.899
 Why would God put Daniel through the paces, as it were?

00:09:40.899 --> 00:09:46.840
 Why would God introduce this trial, this trouble, to Daniel's life?

00:09:49.539 --> 00:09:55.600
 What the enemies of Daniel sought to do to ruin Daniel,

00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:03.360
 becomes an instrument of God to push God forward as the one who can deliver.

00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:10.840
 In other words, God uses Daniel's trials to draw attention to God's triumph.

00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:17.639
 God uses Daniel's trials to draw attention to God's triumph.

00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:21.840
 What is God using in your life this morning?

00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:29.740
 What trials, what troubles, what difficulties, what pains are you working through,

00:10:29.740 --> 00:10:30.799
 even in this moment?

00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:35.120
 What challenges are you experiencing in the here and now?

00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:43.080
 Recognize that God wants to use those challenges, those trials, those tribulations,

00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.960
 so that you can show and draw attention to God's power.

00:10:48.139 --> 00:10:53.879
 God wants you to maximize your trials to draw attention to God's triumph.

00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:57.259
 That's what God does through trials.

00:10:57.259 --> 00:10:59.620
 And by the way, it is a joy for us.

00:11:00.179 --> 00:11:06.220
 It should be a joy for us in the midst of those trials to recognize it as an opportunity

00:11:06.220 --> 00:11:12.159
 and say, oh God, please help me to be faithful with this trial to draw attention to you.

00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:14.200
 And that's exactly what Daniel does.

00:11:15.299 --> 00:11:20.600
 Daniel faithfully devotes himself to God in and through this passage

00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:22.720
 and in and through this book of Daniel.

00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:30.980
 There seems to be this steady heart that is so at ease and at rest in understanding

00:11:30.980 --> 00:11:37.759
 that God is in control of all the circumstances of life in time, in time, in time again.

00:11:38.139 --> 00:11:41.379
 God uses those trials to draw attention to his triumph.

00:11:42.500 --> 00:11:43.720
 And God wants to do the same for you.

00:11:44.639 --> 00:11:49.139
 God wants to do and accomplish the same purposes for his people today.

00:11:49.139 --> 00:11:50.139
 God wants to do the same for you.

00:11:50.139 --> 00:11:51.139
 God wants to do the same for you.

00:11:51.139 --> 00:11:54.080
 There's a famous pastor from the 1800s.

00:11:54.439 --> 00:11:55.659
 His name is D.L. Moody.

00:11:55.919 --> 00:12:01.419
 And D.L. Moody got on board of this ship in London and he was on his way to New York.

00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:06.039
 And at some point along the way, the drive shaft of this ship broke

00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:09.600
 and it created a hole in the hull of the ship.

00:12:10.460 --> 00:12:11.960
 So the ship begins to sink.

00:12:12.879 --> 00:12:15.860
 And D.L. Moody describes this experience in this way when he says,

00:12:15.860 --> 00:12:18.800
 The officers and crew did all they could to save the vessel,

00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:21.960
 but it was soon found that the pumps were useless,

00:12:22.680 --> 00:12:26.120
 for the water poured into the ship too rapidly to be controlled.

00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:29.360
 There was nothing more in the power of man to do,

00:12:29.560 --> 00:12:31.879
 and the ship was absolutely helpless.

00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:36.860
 While the passengers could only stand still on the poor, drifting, sinking ship

00:12:36.860 --> 00:12:41.320
 and look into our possible watery graves.

00:12:42.420 --> 00:12:44.519
 It, of course, was a desperate situation.

00:12:44.519 --> 00:12:54.659
 After several more days, the ship continued to experience increasing damage.

00:12:55.600 --> 00:13:00.539
 And D.L. Moody entered in what he called the darkest hour of his life.

00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:02.500
 He describes it this way when he says,

00:13:02.980 --> 00:13:04.259
 I could not endure it.

00:13:04.379 --> 00:13:06.519
 And imagine yourself in this situation.

00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:10.019
 I must have relief, he says.

00:13:10.559 --> 00:13:12.840
 And relief came in prayer.

00:13:12.840 --> 00:13:17.000
 God heard my cry and enabled me to say,

00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:18.800
 From the depths of my soul,

00:13:19.500 --> 00:13:20.379
 Thy will be done.

00:13:21.100 --> 00:13:22.800
 Sweet peace came to my heart.

00:13:23.300 --> 00:13:25.519
 Let it be north field or heaven, he said.

00:13:25.639 --> 00:13:27.019
 It made no difference now.

00:13:27.220 --> 00:13:27.980
 I went to bed.

00:13:28.100 --> 00:13:29.600
 I fell asleep almost immediately

00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:33.500
 and never slept more soundly in all my life.

00:13:34.460 --> 00:13:38.320
 Of course, God also rescued D.L. Moody

00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:41.120
 and being able to bring him back to shore.

00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:43.980
 But there was rescue, real rescue,

00:13:43.980 --> 00:13:47.680
 that happened in the moment before physical rescue ever came.

00:13:48.420 --> 00:13:52.100
 It was rescue of understanding that God was sovereign,

00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:54.160
 even in the trial.

00:13:55.160 --> 00:13:56.879
 God wants to accomplish the same for us.

00:13:56.980 --> 00:14:00.800
 God wants us to recognize there is deliverance that can come.

00:14:00.799 --> 00:14:05.099
 Sometimes that deliverance comes from those trials.

00:14:05.339 --> 00:14:09.120
 Sometimes that deliverance happens through those trials.

00:14:10.319 --> 00:14:14.859
 Do we believe that in every situation that God is introducing into our life,

00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:20.959
 that God intends to maximize those trials for the purpose of drawing attention to him

00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:25.720
 and through us to call attention to a God who saves,

00:14:26.160 --> 00:14:27.620
 a God who delivers.

00:14:28.560 --> 00:14:30.340
 So if you're not there with me already,

00:14:30.500 --> 00:14:32.580
 turn to Daniel chapter 6.

00:14:33.060 --> 00:14:35.460
 We're going to be picking the story up in verse 14.

00:14:36.620 --> 00:14:38.660
 And we're going to see this contrast that will happen.

00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:42.580
 The power of men versus the power of God.

00:14:42.660 --> 00:14:47.420
 And it has been this picture that has been at the front of our story,

00:14:47.419 --> 00:14:51.439
 the front of this narrative from Daniel chapter 1 to Daniel chapter 6,

00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:52.539
 from the very beginning.

00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:56.559
 Who is really the one who's in power?

00:14:56.740 --> 00:14:59.000
 Who's really the supreme authority?

00:15:00.899 --> 00:15:03.559
 Our first point this morning is the power of man will fail.

00:15:04.439 --> 00:15:06.879
 The power of man will fail.

00:15:07.059 --> 00:15:10.339
 Make sure that when you're trusting in power,

00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:13.459
 you trust in the power of God, not the power of man,

00:15:13.500 --> 00:15:15.679
 because the power of man will fail.

00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:17.799
 Notice verse 14.

00:15:17.899 --> 00:15:19.779
 Then the king, when he heard these words,

00:15:19.839 --> 00:15:23.659
 and by the way, the words were that Daniel has just been praying,

00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:26.019
 not to you, but to his God.

00:15:26.099 --> 00:15:27.479
 And so he hears these words,

00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:29.879
 and he was much distressed.

00:15:30.219 --> 00:15:32.139
 He set his mind to deliver Daniel.

00:15:32.939 --> 00:15:35.179
 And he labored till the sun went down to rescue him.

00:15:36.179 --> 00:15:39.179
 Then these men came by agreement to the king and said to the king,

00:15:39.500 --> 00:15:42.819
 Know, O king, that it is the law of the Medes and the Persians,

00:15:42.820 --> 00:15:47.600
 that no injunction or ordinance that the king establishes can be changed.

00:15:49.040 --> 00:15:50.379
 The power of man will fail.

00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:54.820
 And here we find the king's desperate attempt to deliver Daniel.

00:15:55.520 --> 00:15:57.980
 The king is desperate to deliver Daniel.

00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:00.680
 We find these words.

00:16:00.780 --> 00:16:01.920
 He's much distressed.

00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:07.319
 There was some level of commitment,

00:16:07.959 --> 00:16:09.479
 some level of partnership,

00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:12.740
 some level of investment and allegiance,

00:16:13.019 --> 00:16:15.419
 even before, even between these two men,

00:16:15.479 --> 00:16:18.139
 some relationship that these two guys had,

00:16:18.659 --> 00:16:22.539
 and a dependence that Darius had on Daniel.

00:16:23.419 --> 00:16:26.779
 And he understood how significant this would be.

00:16:27.379 --> 00:16:28.419
 So he was much distressed.

00:16:28.419 --> 00:16:30.059
 And it says he labored,

00:16:30.219 --> 00:16:32.639
 which literally means he set his heart.

00:16:33.199 --> 00:16:36.259
 I think our translation says he set his mind.

00:16:36.979 --> 00:16:38.639
 He was emotionally involved.

00:16:39.799 --> 00:16:41.000
 This word deliver, of course,

00:16:41.099 --> 00:16:44.360
 will become a key word for us in the remaining parts of this chapter.

00:16:44.599 --> 00:16:48.299
 And this would have been a whirlwind day for Darius.

00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:50.740
 Sometime in the morning,

00:16:50.959 --> 00:16:52.259
 he is signing this decree.

00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:53.980
 He's thinking he's going to be able to put

00:16:53.980 --> 00:16:56.180
 all of his kingdom back together

00:16:56.180 --> 00:16:58.920
 and establish loyalty and allegiance.

00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:00.420
 All the while,

00:17:00.680 --> 00:17:03.800
 his officials were actually gunning to manipulate him.

00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:05.380
 Daniel would go,

00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:06.519
 and he would go home to pray.

00:17:06.599 --> 00:17:07.180
 He's caught.

00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:08.440
 And now,

00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:11.360
 Darius' number one official

00:17:11.360 --> 00:17:14.240
 is going to go to the lion's den.

00:17:15.019 --> 00:17:17.420
 And so the king is trying to fix the mess

00:17:17.420 --> 00:17:18.380
 that he's created.

00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:19.900
 He's frustrated.

00:17:20.039 --> 00:17:20.700
 He's emotional.

00:17:20.700 --> 00:17:21.860
 He's desperate.

00:17:23.220 --> 00:17:26.480
 No doubt he throws every resource of his power

00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:28.220
 into the mix

00:17:28.220 --> 00:17:31.980
 to undo this situation that he's created for himself.

00:17:33.420 --> 00:17:34.960
 Darius, king of Babylon,

00:17:35.980 --> 00:17:39.660
 now comes face to face with the restriction of his power.

00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:43.500
 He comes face to face with the boundaries of his authority.

00:17:44.180 --> 00:17:45.720
 He comes to a place of recognizing

00:17:45.720 --> 00:17:47.240
 how desperate he is

00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:50.980
 to actually bring any deliverance to Daniel.

00:17:52.299 --> 00:17:53.380
 In verse 16,

00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:56.519
 we find the king's desperate hope for deliverance.

00:17:57.059 --> 00:17:58.860
 His desperate hope for deliverance.

00:17:59.720 --> 00:17:59.960
 Notice,

00:18:00.380 --> 00:18:01.160
 Then the king commanded,

00:18:01.339 --> 00:18:04.440
 and Daniel was brought and cast into the lion's den.

00:18:05.240 --> 00:18:06.799
 And the king declared to Daniel,

00:18:07.220 --> 00:18:08.160
 May your God,

00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:09.860
 whom you serve continually,

00:18:10.360 --> 00:18:10.839
 deliver you.

00:18:10.839 --> 00:18:14.759
 This word for den is the word for pit.

00:18:15.539 --> 00:18:20.500
 It's another use of the word for a cistern or to dig.

00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:22.799
 It's similar to the word that was used

00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:24.639
 for the brothers of Joseph

00:18:24.639 --> 00:18:26.699
 when they threw him into the pit.

00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:28.459
 It's a similar word for us,

00:18:28.799 --> 00:18:31.019
 the difference between the Hebrew and the Aramaic.

00:18:32.019 --> 00:18:34.480
 Accounts of the Persians executing their victims

00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:37.819
 in such a manner is recorded in history.

00:18:37.819 --> 00:18:41.000
 And while the descriptions of the den

00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:44.019
 aren't given to us in detail here in Daniel,

00:18:44.700 --> 00:18:46.819
 we do find in archaeology

00:18:46.819 --> 00:18:51.119
 in parts of the world in that day

00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:53.679
 that these lion's dens

00:18:53.679 --> 00:18:56.099
 would have been like large caverns.

00:18:56.539 --> 00:18:57.200
 In our family,

00:18:57.339 --> 00:18:58.559
 when we visited Idaho,

00:18:58.740 --> 00:19:01.460
 we went to some natural caverns

00:19:01.460 --> 00:19:02.119
 that were created.

00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:06.059
 This would have been like a large square cavern

00:19:06.059 --> 00:19:06.819
 under the earth.

00:19:06.819 --> 00:19:09.279
 It would have had like a partition in the wall.

00:19:09.379 --> 00:19:11.700
 This particular one that was found in Morocco

00:19:11.700 --> 00:19:13.740
 had a partition in the wall

00:19:13.740 --> 00:19:16.079
 so that the lions could move

00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:17.559
 from one side to the other

00:19:17.559 --> 00:19:20.039
 and you could kind of close things off

00:19:20.039 --> 00:19:22.460
 and access the one side and clean it

00:19:22.460 --> 00:19:25.460
 while the lions were in the other side.

00:19:26.220 --> 00:19:27.899
 Then it would have a hole in the top.

00:19:28.159 --> 00:19:29.319
 You could kind of peer down

00:19:29.319 --> 00:19:30.839
 and watch the activities

00:19:30.839 --> 00:19:32.179
 that were taking place below,

00:19:32.519 --> 00:19:34.559
 making sure the execution was going

00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:35.759
 according to plan.

00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:38.680
 The lions and everyone would come

00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:42.000
 into the opening of this cave

00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:43.240
 and there would be a rock

00:19:43.240 --> 00:19:45.039
 that would be over the mouth

00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:45.859
 of that opening.

00:19:46.680 --> 00:19:48.779
 Probably similar to what we find here

00:19:48.779 --> 00:19:49.500
 in our passage.

00:19:50.579 --> 00:19:53.720
 This was a cistern that is filled with lions.

00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:57.720
 They would intentionally starve these lions

00:19:57.720 --> 00:20:01.379
 so the victims would be unable to escape.

00:20:01.380 --> 00:20:06.020
 So these are not a few sleepy,

00:20:06.520 --> 00:20:09.100
 lethargic old lions that we're talking about

00:20:09.100 --> 00:20:11.460
 as some skeptics have assumed.

00:20:11.780 --> 00:20:13.440
 But we get a sense of the size

00:20:13.440 --> 00:20:14.720
 and the strength

00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:17.020
 and the sheer power of these lions

00:20:17.020 --> 00:20:18.400
 when we look at verse 24.

00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:19.800
 It says,

00:20:19.799 --> 00:20:37.940
 This is the same den,

00:20:37.940 --> 00:20:39.539
 the same group of lions,

00:20:39.539 --> 00:20:43.039
 the same power that was represented here

00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:43.920
 in verse 24

00:20:43.920 --> 00:20:46.519
 is the same power that was available

00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:48.920
 earlier in the chapter.

00:20:50.180 --> 00:20:51.579
 Darius, of course, is concerned.

00:20:51.659 --> 00:20:53.299
 He has a reason to be concerned.

00:20:54.259 --> 00:20:56.420
 And God has used this situation

00:20:56.420 --> 00:20:57.779
 to call attention

00:20:57.779 --> 00:21:00.460
 to God's wonder-working power.

00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:03.839
 The miraculous display of God's power

00:21:03.839 --> 00:21:05.480
 is now brought out into the open.

00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:09.299
 Darius is forced to recognize

00:21:09.299 --> 00:21:11.880
 the limitations of his power.

00:21:12.880 --> 00:21:14.720
 He's been confronted with the limitations

00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:16.960
 of his wisdom and his foresight.

00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:19.720
 He has been forced to see

00:21:19.720 --> 00:21:22.019
 how prone he is to manipulation.

00:21:23.120 --> 00:21:25.160
 And he knows that everything right now

00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:27.420
 is totally out of his control.

00:21:28.819 --> 00:21:30.980
 So Darius offers some semblance

00:21:30.980 --> 00:21:33.360
 and what I find intriguing about this

00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:35.899
 is that Darius will offer

00:21:35.899 --> 00:21:39.219
 a semblance of a prayer in hope,

00:21:39.759 --> 00:21:41.279
 this prayer of desperation,

00:21:41.819 --> 00:21:44.279
 this long-shot prayer as it were,

00:21:44.979 --> 00:21:47.399
 because every other option is expended.

00:21:48.259 --> 00:21:49.240
 What I find fascinating

00:21:49.240 --> 00:21:51.759
 is that in this 30-day window

00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:53.979
 where all petitions and prayers

00:21:53.979 --> 00:21:55.399
 were to come to Darius,

00:21:55.699 --> 00:21:57.819
 now what we kind of see here

00:21:57.819 --> 00:21:59.439
 is that now Darius

00:21:59.439 --> 00:22:01.339
 is kind of offering a prayer

00:22:01.339 --> 00:22:02.980
 to Daniel's God

00:22:02.980 --> 00:22:04.939
 through the mediation of Daniel

00:22:04.939 --> 00:22:05.839
 where he says,

00:22:06.179 --> 00:22:06.919
 may your God,

00:22:07.059 --> 00:22:08.539
 whom you serve continually,

00:22:08.919 --> 00:22:09.579
 deliver you.

00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:12.500
 It's a mighty prayer

00:22:12.500 --> 00:22:14.480
 full of theology.

00:22:15.859 --> 00:22:16.679
 I broke this down

00:22:16.679 --> 00:22:18.039
 just in a few pieces

00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:20.399
 to briefly walk you through

00:22:20.399 --> 00:22:22.519
 how powerful this prayer is.

00:22:22.559 --> 00:22:23.359
 He begins with,

00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:24.259
 your God.

00:22:25.279 --> 00:22:26.879
 These words in the Aramaic

00:22:26.879 --> 00:22:28.339
 are in construct relationship

00:22:28.339 --> 00:22:30.959
 and basically all that means

00:22:30.959 --> 00:22:33.000
 is two words in the English

00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:34.599
 that are joined together

00:22:34.599 --> 00:22:36.139
 and become one word

00:22:36.139 --> 00:22:37.279
 in the Aramaic.

00:22:38.439 --> 00:22:39.220
 Your God.

00:22:40.279 --> 00:22:41.659
 Darius observed

00:22:41.659 --> 00:22:43.339
 the inseparable nature,

00:22:44.139 --> 00:22:45.759
 inseparable quality

00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:48.259
 of Daniel's relationship with God.

00:22:49.419 --> 00:22:52.299
 Your God belongs to you, Daniel.

00:22:52.299 --> 00:22:56.480
 and you belong to your God.

00:22:57.799 --> 00:23:00.039
 This inseparable quality

00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:01.680
 of this relationship

00:23:01.680 --> 00:23:03.279
 that is so personal,

00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:04.899
 that is so marked

00:23:04.899 --> 00:23:06.259
 by affection.

00:23:07.019 --> 00:23:08.899
 Daniel's affection for God

00:23:08.899 --> 00:23:10.799
 and God's affection for him

00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:13.359
 so that Darius even comes

00:23:13.359 --> 00:23:16.240
 to describe God in these terms.

00:23:16.819 --> 00:23:18.599
 He's not just the God of heaven.

00:23:18.859 --> 00:23:20.819
 He's not just the most high God.

00:23:20.819 --> 00:23:23.099
 He's not just the God of Israel.

00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:24.339
 He's your God.

00:23:25.960 --> 00:23:28.539
 The identity that is so intertwined

00:23:28.539 --> 00:23:29.779
 and interlaced

00:23:29.779 --> 00:23:31.339
 with Daniel himself,

00:23:31.639 --> 00:23:32.240
 the servant,

00:23:32.939 --> 00:23:35.359
 describing the love of God

00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:37.500
 for Daniel.

00:23:38.619 --> 00:23:39.240
 Then he says,

00:23:39.359 --> 00:23:40.899
 whom you serve.

00:23:41.599 --> 00:23:42.079
 And again,

00:23:42.639 --> 00:23:43.980
 this is a word

00:23:43.980 --> 00:23:46.099
 that is in a construct relationship.

00:23:46.740 --> 00:23:49.480
 It describes this intensive,

00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:52.240
 continual pattern of service

00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:53.799
 that Daniel has for God.

00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:55.579
 This continual expression

00:23:55.579 --> 00:23:56.759
 of his life.

00:23:56.860 --> 00:23:59.240
 It is this ever-present reality

00:23:59.240 --> 00:23:59.759
 for him.

00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:00.900
 You get this sense

00:24:00.900 --> 00:24:02.960
 that nothing drives Daniel

00:24:02.960 --> 00:24:04.620
 quite like his service

00:24:04.620 --> 00:24:05.200
 to his God.

00:24:06.319 --> 00:24:07.420
 Let's not forget

00:24:07.420 --> 00:24:09.480
 that here in the book of Daniel

00:24:09.480 --> 00:24:10.559
 and also throughout

00:24:10.559 --> 00:24:12.500
 the Old Testament,

00:24:12.700 --> 00:24:14.279
 we find that service

00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:15.339
 and worship

00:24:15.339 --> 00:24:16.440
 go hand in hand.

00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:18.180
 These terms are synonymous.

00:24:18.180 --> 00:24:19.460
 We saw this back

00:24:19.460 --> 00:24:20.600
 in Daniel chapter 3

00:24:20.600 --> 00:24:22.560
 in verse 12

00:24:22.560 --> 00:24:24.680
 where the accusers

00:24:24.680 --> 00:24:25.680
 will say of Shadrach,

00:24:25.779 --> 00:24:26.100
 Meshach,

00:24:26.180 --> 00:24:26.620
 and Abednego,

00:24:26.779 --> 00:24:27.279
 they say,

00:24:27.700 --> 00:24:29.200
 they do not serve

00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:30.180
 your gods

00:24:30.180 --> 00:24:30.920
 or worship

00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:31.759
 the golden image

00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:32.560
 that you have set up.

00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:34.259
 And then Nebuchadnezzar

00:24:34.259 --> 00:24:35.299
 in verse 14

00:24:35.299 --> 00:24:35.700
 will say,

00:24:35.779 --> 00:24:36.400
 is it true

00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:37.900
 that you do not serve

00:24:37.900 --> 00:24:38.580
 my gods

00:24:38.580 --> 00:24:39.279
 or worship

00:24:39.279 --> 00:24:40.400
 the golden image

00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:41.400
 that I have set up?

00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:43.200
 And then in verse 18,

00:24:43.299 --> 00:24:44.100
 Shadrach, Meshach,

00:24:44.160 --> 00:24:44.560
 and Abednego

00:24:44.560 --> 00:24:45.420
 will reply,

00:24:45.420 --> 00:24:47.960
 be it known to you,

00:24:48.120 --> 00:24:48.380
 O king,

00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:51.300
 that we will not serve

00:24:51.300 --> 00:24:52.180
 your gods

00:24:52.180 --> 00:24:52.820
 or worship

00:24:52.820 --> 00:24:54.100
 the golden image

00:24:54.100 --> 00:24:55.000
 that you have set up.

00:24:56.120 --> 00:24:57.360
 Darius understood

00:24:57.360 --> 00:24:59.539
 the underlying reason

00:24:59.539 --> 00:25:02.200
 for Daniel's disobedience.

00:25:03.120 --> 00:25:04.240
 Darius has come

00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:05.140
 to understand

00:25:05.140 --> 00:25:06.720
 that Daniel

00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:07.740
 is a man

00:25:07.740 --> 00:25:08.660
 who is committed

00:25:08.660 --> 00:25:10.180
 to one objective

00:25:10.180 --> 00:25:10.680
 and that is

00:25:10.680 --> 00:25:11.779
 service of God.

00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:13.560
 This was not about

00:25:13.559 --> 00:25:14.259
 defiance

00:25:14.259 --> 00:25:15.200
 to a decree.

00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:16.259
 This was not about

00:25:16.259 --> 00:25:17.079
 disloyalty

00:25:17.079 --> 00:25:17.740
 to the king.

00:25:17.980 --> 00:25:18.379
 This was about

00:25:18.379 --> 00:25:18.919
 allegiance

00:25:18.919 --> 00:25:20.559
 to the God of Israel,

00:25:20.859 --> 00:25:22.079
 to Daniel's God,

00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:23.559
 serving him,

00:25:23.980 --> 00:25:24.720
 worshiping him.

00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:26.000
 Daniel's service

00:25:26.000 --> 00:25:26.700
 and devotion

00:25:26.700 --> 00:25:27.619
 and worship

00:25:27.619 --> 00:25:28.940
 were undivided.

00:25:29.359 --> 00:25:30.619
 They were uncompromised.

00:25:30.859 --> 00:25:31.740
 They were unbroken,

00:25:32.159 --> 00:25:33.119
 unwavering,

00:25:33.240 --> 00:25:34.000
 and undeterred.

00:25:35.700 --> 00:25:36.460
 His service

00:25:36.460 --> 00:25:37.519
 and worship

00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:39.659
 were continual

00:25:39.659 --> 00:25:40.639
 and faithful

00:25:40.639 --> 00:25:41.659
 and consistent.

00:25:41.660 --> 00:25:44.680
 Then he ends with,

00:25:45.279 --> 00:25:45.920
 may this God

00:25:45.920 --> 00:25:46.880
 deliver you.

00:25:47.560 --> 00:25:48.220
 Deliver you.

00:25:48.880 --> 00:25:49.800
 Another construct

00:25:49.800 --> 00:25:50.420
 relationship

00:25:50.420 --> 00:25:51.100
 where the verb

00:25:51.100 --> 00:25:51.740
 deliver

00:25:51.740 --> 00:25:53.500
 is joined together

00:25:53.500 --> 00:25:54.160
 with a pronoun

00:25:54.160 --> 00:25:54.600
 you.

00:25:55.840 --> 00:25:56.519
 Attached

00:25:56.519 --> 00:25:57.180
 to convey

00:25:57.180 --> 00:25:57.840
 the idea

00:25:57.840 --> 00:25:59.540
 that God's power

00:25:59.540 --> 00:26:01.140
 was inseparable

00:26:01.140 --> 00:26:02.540
 with God's servant.

00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:04.120
 Where he begins

00:26:04.120 --> 00:26:04.960
 with your God.

00:26:05.240 --> 00:26:06.460
 God's relationship,

00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:07.700
 God's identity

00:26:07.700 --> 00:26:09.320
 was intertwined

00:26:09.320 --> 00:26:10.360
 with his servant

00:26:10.360 --> 00:26:10.759
 Daniel

00:26:10.759 --> 00:26:11.359
 and now

00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:12.759
 the affection

00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:13.660
 that God has

00:26:13.660 --> 00:26:14.180
 for Daniel

00:26:14.180 --> 00:26:14.879
 is met

00:26:14.879 --> 00:26:15.759
 with the power

00:26:15.759 --> 00:26:16.299
 of God

00:26:16.299 --> 00:26:16.819
 that's going to be

00:26:16.819 --> 00:26:17.680
 working out

00:26:17.680 --> 00:26:18.240
 in Daniel

00:26:18.240 --> 00:26:20.119
 so that

00:26:20.119 --> 00:26:21.859
 in Darius' mind

00:26:21.859 --> 00:26:23.879
 God's character

00:26:23.879 --> 00:26:24.920
 was bound

00:26:24.920 --> 00:26:26.740
 to the deliverance

00:26:26.740 --> 00:26:27.759
 that God

00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:28.299
 would provide

00:26:28.299 --> 00:26:28.980
 to Daniel

00:26:28.980 --> 00:26:30.640
 in the lion's den.

00:26:31.319 --> 00:26:32.420
 It was a mighty

00:26:32.420 --> 00:26:32.960
 prayer

00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:34.279
 of desperation.

00:26:34.279 --> 00:26:38.599
 but it was a prayer

00:26:38.599 --> 00:26:39.879
 of sincerity.

00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:41.599
 It wasn't a prayer

00:26:41.599 --> 00:26:42.119
 of sincerity

00:26:42.119 --> 00:26:42.639
 excuse me

00:26:42.639 --> 00:26:44.359
 because Darius

00:26:44.359 --> 00:26:45.480
 didn't know

00:26:45.480 --> 00:26:46.339
 God's power.

00:26:47.019 --> 00:26:48.180
 Darius didn't have

00:26:48.180 --> 00:26:49.019
 this relationship

00:26:49.019 --> 00:26:49.660
 with God

00:26:49.660 --> 00:26:52.200
 which now turns

00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:53.019
 to verse 17

00:26:53.019 --> 00:26:53.720
 the king's

00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:55.019
 desperate night

00:26:55.019 --> 00:26:56.220
 of waiting.

00:26:56.759 --> 00:26:57.180
 The king's

00:26:57.180 --> 00:26:57.819
 desperate night

00:26:57.819 --> 00:26:58.200
 of waiting.

00:26:59.700 --> 00:26:59.879
 It says

00:26:59.880 --> 00:27:00.340
 in a stone

00:27:00.340 --> 00:27:00.880
 was brought

00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:01.440
 and laid

00:27:01.440 --> 00:27:02.040
 on the mouth

00:27:02.040 --> 00:27:02.560
 of the den

00:27:02.560 --> 00:27:04.020
 the king

00:27:04.020 --> 00:27:05.400
 sealed it

00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:06.020
 with his own

00:27:06.020 --> 00:27:06.780
 signet

00:27:06.780 --> 00:27:07.960
 and with the

00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:08.560
 signet of his

00:27:08.560 --> 00:27:09.020
 lords

00:27:09.020 --> 00:27:09.880
 that nothing

00:27:09.880 --> 00:27:10.740
 might be changed

00:27:10.740 --> 00:27:11.600
 concerning Daniel.

00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:13.519
 Then the king

00:27:13.519 --> 00:27:15.259
 went to his palace

00:27:15.259 --> 00:27:16.079
 and spent the night

00:27:16.079 --> 00:27:16.599
 fasting.

00:27:17.139 --> 00:27:17.839
 No diversions

00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:18.799
 were brought to him

00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:19.779
 and sleep

00:27:19.779 --> 00:27:20.859
 fled from him.

00:27:21.399 --> 00:27:22.059
 Then at the break

00:27:22.059 --> 00:27:22.419
 of day

00:27:22.419 --> 00:27:23.159
 the king arose

00:27:23.159 --> 00:27:24.279
 and went in haste

00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:25.519
 to the den of lions

00:27:25.519 --> 00:27:27.079
 and he came near

00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:27.759
 to the den

00:27:27.759 --> 00:27:28.559
 where Daniel was.

00:27:29.319 --> 00:27:29.839
 He cried out

00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:30.219
 in a tone

00:27:30.219 --> 00:27:31.000
 of anguish

00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:32.319
 the king declared

00:27:32.319 --> 00:27:32.699
 to Daniel

00:27:32.699 --> 00:27:33.159
 O Daniel

00:27:33.159 --> 00:27:33.839
 servant of the

00:27:33.839 --> 00:27:34.539
 living God

00:27:34.539 --> 00:27:36.059
 has your God

00:27:36.059 --> 00:27:36.859
 whom you serve

00:27:36.859 --> 00:27:37.579
 continually

00:27:37.579 --> 00:27:38.500
 been able

00:27:38.500 --> 00:27:39.500
 to deliver you

00:27:39.500 --> 00:27:41.099
 from the lions?

00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:42.819
 The king's

00:27:42.819 --> 00:27:43.559
 desperate night

00:27:43.559 --> 00:27:44.119
 of waiting

00:27:44.119 --> 00:27:46.059
 Darius goes back

00:27:46.059 --> 00:27:46.659
 to the palace

00:27:46.659 --> 00:27:47.519
 and by the way

00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:48.339
 all of this

00:27:48.339 --> 00:27:49.039
 I believe

00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:50.480
 is by design

00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:51.480
 where God

00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:52.480
 is putting Darius

00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:53.399
 in a situation

00:27:53.399 --> 00:27:54.599
 where he's helpless

00:27:54.599 --> 00:27:56.319
 where he's come

00:27:56.319 --> 00:27:56.779
 to the end

00:27:56.779 --> 00:27:57.399
 of himself

00:27:57.399 --> 00:27:58.519
 and now

00:27:58.519 --> 00:27:59.480
 Darius

00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:00.419
 is hoping

00:28:00.419 --> 00:28:01.299
 beyond hope

00:28:01.299 --> 00:28:01.859
 perhaps

00:28:01.859 --> 00:28:03.219
 just maybe

00:28:03.219 --> 00:28:04.619
 God will

00:28:04.619 --> 00:28:06.079
 help to deliver

00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:07.240
 his servant

00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:07.699
 Daniel.

00:28:08.299 --> 00:28:09.019
 All of this

00:28:09.019 --> 00:28:10.500
 was by design.

00:28:10.699 --> 00:28:11.019
 God

00:28:11.019 --> 00:28:12.440
 bringing

00:28:12.440 --> 00:28:13.859
 and emphasizing

00:28:13.859 --> 00:28:15.000
 the king's

00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:15.599
 futility

00:28:15.599 --> 00:28:16.759
 and drawing

00:28:16.759 --> 00:28:17.240
 attention

00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:18.279
 to God's

00:28:18.279 --> 00:28:18.839
 sufficiency.

00:28:20.400 --> 00:28:21.559
 This has been

00:28:21.559 --> 00:28:22.259
 a whirlwind day.

00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:24.099
 Started with

00:28:24.099 --> 00:28:24.740
 Darius feeling

00:28:24.740 --> 00:28:25.680
 at the top

00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:26.059
 of the world

00:28:26.059 --> 00:28:26.500
 and now

00:28:26.500 --> 00:28:27.019
 has ended

00:28:27.019 --> 00:28:27.839
 with Darius

00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:29.240
 understanding

00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:31.059
 his desperate

00:28:31.059 --> 00:28:31.539
 need

00:28:31.539 --> 00:28:32.359
 for God

00:28:32.359 --> 00:28:32.879
 himself.

00:28:33.660 --> 00:28:34.240
 Now we're

00:28:34.240 --> 00:28:34.680
 back in the

00:28:34.680 --> 00:28:35.099
 palace

00:28:35.099 --> 00:28:36.379
 and one thing

00:28:36.380 --> 00:28:37.320
 on Darius'

00:28:37.520 --> 00:28:37.880
 mind

00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:39.780
 something in

00:28:39.780 --> 00:28:40.240
 his heart

00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:40.760
 believes

00:28:40.760 --> 00:28:41.460
 that maybe

00:28:41.460 --> 00:28:42.340
 just maybe

00:28:42.340 --> 00:28:42.860
 God

00:28:42.860 --> 00:28:44.340
 will save

00:28:44.340 --> 00:28:44.920
 Daniel.

00:28:45.800 --> 00:28:46.480
 Perhaps

00:28:46.480 --> 00:28:47.620
 it was the

00:28:47.620 --> 00:28:48.140
 strength of

00:28:48.140 --> 00:28:48.620
 Daniel's

00:28:48.620 --> 00:28:49.200
 conviction.

00:28:50.200 --> 00:28:51.180
 Perhaps it was

00:28:51.180 --> 00:28:51.620
 the record

00:28:51.620 --> 00:28:52.280
 of Daniel's

00:28:52.280 --> 00:28:52.540
 God

00:28:52.540 --> 00:28:53.840
 or the writing

00:28:53.840 --> 00:28:54.480
 on the wall

00:28:54.480 --> 00:28:55.120
 and testimony

00:28:55.120 --> 00:28:56.380
 of Daniel

00:28:56.380 --> 00:28:57.160
 being able

00:28:57.160 --> 00:28:58.200
 to deliver

00:28:58.200 --> 00:28:58.920
 and interpret

00:28:58.920 --> 00:28:59.800
 the words

00:28:59.800 --> 00:29:00.060
 that were

00:29:00.060 --> 00:29:00.420
 written on

00:29:00.420 --> 00:29:00.820
 the wall.

00:29:01.639 --> 00:29:02.259
 Maybe it was

00:29:02.259 --> 00:29:02.799
 the public

00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:03.519
 record of

00:29:03.519 --> 00:29:04.419
 the fiery

00:29:04.419 --> 00:29:05.059
 furnace

00:29:05.059 --> 00:29:06.579
 or maybe

00:29:06.579 --> 00:29:07.319
 the public

00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:08.159
 proclamation

00:29:08.159 --> 00:29:09.439
 from Nebuchadnezzar

00:29:09.439 --> 00:29:10.200
 himself at the

00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:11.500
 end of Daniel

00:29:11.500 --> 00:29:12.220
 chapter 4.

00:29:12.439 --> 00:29:13.200
 Whatever it

00:29:13.200 --> 00:29:13.700
 was,

00:29:14.039 --> 00:29:14.339
 Darius'

00:29:14.559 --> 00:29:15.220
 response

00:29:15.220 --> 00:29:16.039
 indicates

00:29:16.039 --> 00:29:16.619
 that there

00:29:16.619 --> 00:29:17.000
 is this

00:29:17.000 --> 00:29:17.559
 flicker

00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:18.359
 of hope

00:29:18.359 --> 00:29:19.019
 that maybe

00:29:19.019 --> 00:29:19.500
 God

00:29:19.500 --> 00:29:20.159
 will be

00:29:20.159 --> 00:29:20.480
 able

00:29:20.480 --> 00:29:21.460
 to save.

00:29:23.579 --> 00:29:24.480
 But as

00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:25.099
 the hours

00:29:25.099 --> 00:29:26.119
 go by,

00:29:27.279 --> 00:29:28.119
 the urgency

00:29:28.119 --> 00:29:28.939
 of the situation

00:29:28.939 --> 00:29:29.779
 is intensified.

00:29:29.960 --> 00:29:30.359
 Darius

00:29:30.359 --> 00:29:31.159
 spends the

00:29:31.159 --> 00:29:31.819
 night fasting

00:29:31.819 --> 00:29:32.619
 which is a

00:29:32.619 --> 00:29:33.500
 way to

00:29:33.500 --> 00:29:34.799
 represent his

00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:35.500
 heart of sorrow,

00:29:35.619 --> 00:29:36.139
 his heart of

00:29:36.139 --> 00:29:36.459
 grief,

00:29:36.679 --> 00:29:37.240
 his heart of

00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:37.779
 urgency.

00:29:38.379 --> 00:29:38.799
 He puts

00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:39.240
 away his

00:29:39.240 --> 00:29:39.579
 food,

00:29:39.819 --> 00:29:40.159
 he puts

00:29:40.159 --> 00:29:40.539
 away his

00:29:40.539 --> 00:29:41.000
 entertainment,

00:29:41.319 --> 00:29:41.740
 he's unable

00:29:41.740 --> 00:29:42.379
 to sleep.

00:29:42.759 --> 00:29:43.139
 And then

00:29:43.139 --> 00:29:44.240
 at the

00:29:44.240 --> 00:29:44.679
 earliest

00:29:44.679 --> 00:29:45.539
 possible

00:29:45.539 --> 00:29:45.959
 moment,

00:29:46.819 --> 00:29:47.119
 what we

00:29:47.119 --> 00:29:47.479
 find here

00:29:47.479 --> 00:29:47.659
 in the

00:29:47.659 --> 00:29:47.879
 text,

00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:48.379
 at the

00:29:48.379 --> 00:29:49.419
 break of

00:29:49.419 --> 00:29:49.819
 day,

00:29:50.439 --> 00:29:50.719
 at the

00:29:50.719 --> 00:29:51.279
 instant

00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:52.099
 the law

00:29:52.099 --> 00:29:52.659
 has been

00:29:52.659 --> 00:29:53.219
 fulfilled,

00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:54.240
 this 62

00:29:54.240 --> 00:29:54.759
 year old

00:29:54.759 --> 00:29:55.500
 man is

00:29:55.500 --> 00:29:56.439
 jetting across

00:29:56.439 --> 00:29:57.039
 the palace,

00:29:57.339 --> 00:29:57.919
 he's running

00:29:57.919 --> 00:29:58.679
 across the

00:29:58.679 --> 00:29:58.959
 city,

00:29:59.179 --> 00:29:59.759
 he's going

00:29:59.759 --> 00:30:00.299
 out to that

00:30:00.299 --> 00:30:00.619
 den,

00:30:00.859 --> 00:30:01.460
 he's got

00:30:01.460 --> 00:30:01.960
 to know

00:30:01.960 --> 00:30:02.740
 for himself,

00:30:03.019 --> 00:30:03.720
 is Daniel

00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:04.180
 okay?

00:30:05.379 --> 00:30:06.079
 He calls

00:30:06.079 --> 00:30:06.879
 out in a

00:30:06.879 --> 00:30:07.799
 tone of

00:30:07.799 --> 00:30:08.279
 anguish

00:30:08.279 --> 00:30:08.819
 and notice,

00:30:08.960 --> 00:30:09.460
 oh Daniel,

00:30:10.359 --> 00:30:11.419
 servant of

00:30:11.419 --> 00:30:11.839
 the living

00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:12.319
 God,

00:30:12.700 --> 00:30:13.240
 has your

00:30:13.240 --> 00:30:13.720
 God,

00:30:14.099 --> 00:30:14.500
 whom you

00:30:14.500 --> 00:30:14.759
 serve

00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:15.399
 continually,

00:30:15.940 --> 00:30:16.639
 been able

00:30:16.639 --> 00:30:17.700
 to deliver

00:30:17.700 --> 00:30:18.700
 you from

00:30:18.700 --> 00:30:19.180
 the lions?

00:30:20.180 --> 00:30:20.799
 This

00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:21.419
 identity of

00:30:21.419 --> 00:30:21.859
 the living

00:30:21.859 --> 00:30:22.559
 God that

00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:23.200
 he expresses

00:30:23.200 --> 00:30:24.539
 here is

00:30:24.539 --> 00:30:25.759
 really uncommon

00:30:25.759 --> 00:30:26.859
 in the Old

00:30:26.859 --> 00:30:27.220
 Testament,

00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:27.579
 but it's

00:30:27.579 --> 00:30:28.399
 used twice

00:30:28.400 --> 00:30:29.400
 here in

00:30:29.400 --> 00:30:29.980
 Daniel chapter

00:30:29.980 --> 00:30:30.420
 6.

00:30:30.820 --> 00:30:31.480
 It's often

00:30:31.480 --> 00:30:32.240
 associated in

00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:32.500
 the Old

00:30:32.500 --> 00:30:32.880
 Testament,

00:30:33.060 --> 00:30:33.600
 as few

00:30:33.600 --> 00:30:33.800
 of the

00:30:33.800 --> 00:30:34.280
 times it's

00:30:34.280 --> 00:30:34.519
 used,

00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:35.280
 it's often

00:30:35.280 --> 00:30:35.780
 associated

00:30:35.780 --> 00:30:36.720
 with God's

00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:37.220
 delivering

00:30:37.220 --> 00:30:38.620
 power over

00:30:38.620 --> 00:30:39.820
 the nations.

00:30:42.620 --> 00:30:43.140
 Nebuchadnezzar

00:30:43.140 --> 00:30:44.300
 will use a

00:30:44.300 --> 00:30:45.100
 similar concept

00:30:45.100 --> 00:30:45.540
 in Daniel

00:30:45.540 --> 00:30:46.120
 chapter 4

00:30:46.120 --> 00:30:46.900
 verse 34

00:30:46.900 --> 00:30:47.320
 when he

00:30:47.320 --> 00:30:47.640
 says,

00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:48.540
 I bless

00:30:48.540 --> 00:30:48.980
 the Most

00:30:48.980 --> 00:30:49.780
 High and

00:30:49.780 --> 00:30:50.420
 praise and

00:30:50.420 --> 00:30:51.100
 honor him

00:30:51.100 --> 00:30:52.780
 who lives

00:30:52.780 --> 00:30:53.259
 forever.

00:30:53.259 --> 00:30:55.000
 You see,

00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:55.460
 God was a

00:30:55.460 --> 00:30:55.920
 living God,

00:30:56.319 --> 00:30:57.259
 not like

00:30:57.259 --> 00:30:58.839
 the dead,

00:30:59.660 --> 00:31:00.160
 lifeless

00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:01.059
 gods of

00:31:01.059 --> 00:31:01.720
 Babylon or

00:31:01.720 --> 00:31:02.140
 Persia.

00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:03.640
 It expresses

00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:04.420
 this quality

00:31:04.420 --> 00:31:05.220
 and nature

00:31:05.220 --> 00:31:05.799
 of God,

00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:06.920
 his presence,

00:31:07.059 --> 00:31:07.819
 his activity,

00:31:08.220 --> 00:31:08.940
 his involvement

00:31:08.940 --> 00:31:09.599
 in the affairs

00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:10.119
 of men,

00:31:10.640 --> 00:31:11.420
 his engagement

00:31:11.420 --> 00:31:12.079
 in the world

00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:12.759
 and active

00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:14.319
 in the lives

00:31:14.319 --> 00:31:14.720
 of his

00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:15.319
 servants.

00:31:16.619 --> 00:31:16.859
 Both

00:31:16.859 --> 00:31:17.440
 Nebuchadnezzar

00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:17.940
 and Darius

00:31:17.940 --> 00:31:18.660
 come to

00:31:18.660 --> 00:31:19.259
 understand

00:31:19.259 --> 00:31:21.180
 this identity

00:31:21.180 --> 00:31:21.720
 of God

00:31:21.720 --> 00:31:22.079
 as being

00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:22.579
 powerful,

00:31:22.579 --> 00:31:23.460
 accessible

00:31:23.460 --> 00:31:24.859
 and present.

00:31:25.899 --> 00:31:26.319
 But now

00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:27.359
 we contrast

00:31:27.359 --> 00:31:28.279
 the futility,

00:31:28.740 --> 00:31:29.319
 the failure

00:31:29.319 --> 00:31:30.679
 of man's

00:31:30.679 --> 00:31:31.019
 power.

00:31:31.419 --> 00:31:31.980
 Man's

00:31:31.980 --> 00:31:32.740
 power will

00:31:32.740 --> 00:31:33.399
 fail but

00:31:33.399 --> 00:31:34.279
 God's power

00:31:34.279 --> 00:31:35.099
 will flourish.

00:31:35.319 --> 00:31:35.559
 That's what

00:31:35.559 --> 00:31:36.019
 we find

00:31:36.019 --> 00:31:36.699
 in verses

00:31:36.699 --> 00:31:37.740
 21 to

00:31:37.740 --> 00:31:38.179
 28.

00:31:38.939 --> 00:31:39.599
 The power

00:31:39.599 --> 00:31:40.339
 of God

00:31:40.339 --> 00:31:41.000
 will flourish.

00:31:41.699 --> 00:31:42.199
 Put your

00:31:42.199 --> 00:31:42.939
 hope in

00:31:42.939 --> 00:31:43.319
 the power

00:31:43.319 --> 00:31:43.699
 of God.

00:31:44.879 --> 00:31:45.319
 Notice

00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:46.199
 in verse

00:31:46.199 --> 00:31:47.319
 21,

00:31:47.879 --> 00:31:48.319
 Then Daniel

00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:48.859
 said to the

00:31:48.859 --> 00:31:49.139
 king,

00:31:49.419 --> 00:31:49.960
 O king,

00:31:50.319 --> 00:31:50.899
 live forever.

00:31:50.900 --> 00:31:52.920
 my God

00:31:52.920 --> 00:31:53.660
 has sent

00:31:53.660 --> 00:31:54.420
 his angel

00:31:54.420 --> 00:31:55.600
 and shut

00:31:55.600 --> 00:31:56.420
 the lions'

00:31:56.759 --> 00:31:57.200
 mouths

00:31:57.200 --> 00:31:58.500
 and they

00:31:58.500 --> 00:31:58.940
 have not

00:31:58.940 --> 00:31:59.660
 harmed me

00:31:59.660 --> 00:32:00.700
 because I

00:32:00.700 --> 00:32:01.120
 was found

00:32:01.120 --> 00:32:01.600
 blameless

00:32:01.600 --> 00:32:02.240
 before him

00:32:02.240 --> 00:32:03.140
 and also

00:32:03.140 --> 00:32:03.700
 before you,

00:32:03.860 --> 00:32:04.080
 O king,

00:32:04.280 --> 00:32:05.019
 I have done

00:32:05.019 --> 00:32:05.920
 no harm.

00:32:06.720 --> 00:32:07.200
 God

00:32:07.200 --> 00:32:07.860
 sends

00:32:07.860 --> 00:32:08.780
 his angel

00:32:08.780 --> 00:32:09.700
 to deliver

00:32:09.700 --> 00:32:10.080
 Daniel.

00:32:10.800 --> 00:32:11.240
 God

00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:11.820
 sends

00:32:11.820 --> 00:32:13.140
 his messenger.

00:32:13.420 --> 00:32:13.600
 God

00:32:13.600 --> 00:32:14.100
 sends

00:32:14.100 --> 00:32:14.960
 his power.

00:32:15.300 --> 00:32:15.460
 God

00:32:15.460 --> 00:32:15.840
 sends

00:32:15.840 --> 00:32:16.560
 his presence,

00:32:16.780 --> 00:32:17.420
 his very

00:32:17.420 --> 00:32:18.220
 presence

00:32:18.220 --> 00:32:19.420
 to help

00:32:19.420 --> 00:32:19.799
 Daniel.

00:32:21.980 --> 00:32:22.480
 God

00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:22.799
 delivers.

00:32:23.819 --> 00:32:24.100
 He's a

00:32:24.100 --> 00:32:24.380
 God who

00:32:24.380 --> 00:32:24.839
 is not

00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:25.380
 distant.

00:32:26.220 --> 00:32:26.620
 He's a

00:32:26.620 --> 00:32:26.980
 God who's

00:32:26.980 --> 00:32:27.600
 not removed.

00:32:27.740 --> 00:32:28.019
 He's a

00:32:28.019 --> 00:32:28.539
 God who

00:32:28.539 --> 00:32:29.120
 is not

00:32:29.120 --> 00:32:30.160
 apathetic

00:32:30.160 --> 00:32:30.940
 or

00:32:30.940 --> 00:32:32.039
 uncaring.

00:32:32.360 --> 00:32:32.700
 He's a

00:32:32.700 --> 00:32:33.079
 God who

00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:33.700
 is present.

00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:34.319
 He's a

00:32:34.319 --> 00:32:34.740
 God who

00:32:34.740 --> 00:32:35.319
 answers.

00:32:35.819 --> 00:32:36.120
 He's a

00:32:36.120 --> 00:32:36.680
 God who

00:32:36.680 --> 00:32:37.620
 is imminently

00:32:37.620 --> 00:32:37.620


00:32:37.620 --> 00:32:36.980
 He's a

00:32:36.980 --> 00:32:37.680
 God who

00:32:37.680 --> 00:32:38.200
 is available

00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:39.079
 to his

00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:39.440
 people.

00:32:40.039 --> 00:32:40.539
 And God

00:32:40.539 --> 00:32:41.160
 helps

00:32:41.160 --> 00:32:41.880
 Daniel.

00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:42.240
 Why?

00:32:43.100 --> 00:32:43.339
 Well,

00:32:43.360 --> 00:32:43.880
 Daniel says

00:32:43.880 --> 00:32:44.059
 here,

00:32:44.180 --> 00:32:44.519
 because I

00:32:44.519 --> 00:32:44.980
 was found

00:32:44.980 --> 00:32:45.600
 blameless.

00:32:46.620 --> 00:32:47.360
 I was found

00:32:47.360 --> 00:32:47.940
 blameless.

00:32:48.220 --> 00:32:49.120
 And because

00:32:49.120 --> 00:32:49.680
 I have

00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:50.019
 done

00:32:50.019 --> 00:32:50.740
 no harm.

00:32:51.940 --> 00:32:52.380
 Daniel's

00:32:52.380 --> 00:32:52.700
 commitment

00:32:52.700 --> 00:32:53.200
 to God

00:32:53.200 --> 00:32:54.160
 just

00:32:54.160 --> 00:32:54.640
 continued

00:32:54.640 --> 00:32:55.200
 to shine

00:32:55.200 --> 00:32:55.799
 through his

00:32:55.799 --> 00:32:56.120
 life.

00:32:56.920 --> 00:32:57.600
 And Daniel

00:32:57.600 --> 00:32:58.360
 somehow

00:32:58.360 --> 00:32:59.059
 understood

00:32:59.059 --> 00:33:00.559
 that in

00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:02.259
 the providence

00:33:02.259 --> 00:33:02.839
 of God,

00:33:02.900 --> 00:33:03.600
 he was using

00:33:03.600 --> 00:33:04.220
 this very

00:33:04.220 --> 00:33:04.860
 situation

00:33:04.860 --> 00:33:05.759
 to draw

00:33:05.759 --> 00:33:06.299
 attention

00:33:06.299 --> 00:33:06.960
 to God's

00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:07.339
 power

00:33:07.339 --> 00:33:07.920
 and to

00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:08.420
 use

00:33:08.420 --> 00:33:09.380
 the lion's

00:33:09.380 --> 00:33:09.620
 den

00:33:09.620 --> 00:33:10.180
 as a

00:33:10.180 --> 00:33:11.519
 gospel

00:33:11.519 --> 00:33:12.220
 catalyst

00:33:12.220 --> 00:33:12.920
 for this

00:33:12.920 --> 00:33:13.200
 king,

00:33:13.299 --> 00:33:13.579
 for this

00:33:13.579 --> 00:33:14.120
 heathen

00:33:14.120 --> 00:33:14.400
 king.

00:33:14.720 --> 00:33:15.019
 Somehow

00:33:15.019 --> 00:33:15.519
 Daniel

00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:16.100
 understood

00:33:16.100 --> 00:33:16.480
 at the

00:33:16.480 --> 00:33:16.680
 very

00:33:16.680 --> 00:33:17.200
 beginning

00:33:17.200 --> 00:33:17.840
 what

00:33:17.840 --> 00:33:18.259
 God

00:33:18.259 --> 00:33:18.500
 was

00:33:18.500 --> 00:33:18.799
 about

00:33:18.799 --> 00:33:19.019
 to

00:33:19.019 --> 00:33:19.400
 accomplish.

00:33:21.140 --> 00:33:21.380
 I

00:33:21.380 --> 00:33:21.620
 was

00:33:21.620 --> 00:33:22.440
 faithful.

00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:23.420
 I

00:33:23.420 --> 00:33:23.600
 was

00:33:23.600 --> 00:33:24.200
 blameless.

00:33:24.680 --> 00:33:25.160
 And

00:33:25.160 --> 00:33:25.620
 I

00:33:25.620 --> 00:33:25.759
 have

00:33:25.759 --> 00:33:25.940
 done

00:33:25.940 --> 00:33:26.140
 no

00:33:26.140 --> 00:33:26.360
 harm.

00:33:27.660 --> 00:33:28.200
 This

00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:28.500
 word

00:33:28.500 --> 00:33:28.740
 I've

00:33:28.740 --> 00:33:28.980
 done

00:33:28.980 --> 00:33:29.259
 no

00:33:29.259 --> 00:33:29.580
 harm

00:33:29.580 --> 00:33:29.960
 should

00:33:29.960 --> 00:33:30.640
 sound

00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:30.880
 a bit

00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:31.279
 familiar

00:33:31.279 --> 00:33:31.660
 because

00:33:31.660 --> 00:33:32.160
 if we

00:33:32.160 --> 00:33:32.440
 remember

00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:32.680
 at the

00:33:32.680 --> 00:33:32.819
 very

00:33:32.819 --> 00:33:33.220
 beginning

00:33:33.220 --> 00:33:34.140
 of this

00:33:34.140 --> 00:33:34.539
 chapter

00:33:34.539 --> 00:33:35.440
 when the

00:33:35.440 --> 00:33:36.019
 satraps

00:33:36.019 --> 00:33:36.700
 and officials

00:33:36.700 --> 00:33:37.460
 were put

00:33:37.460 --> 00:33:37.900
 together

00:33:37.900 --> 00:33:38.720
 they were

00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:39.240
 put together

00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:39.580
 for the

00:33:39.580 --> 00:33:39.980
 purpose

00:33:39.980 --> 00:33:40.740
 of so

00:33:40.740 --> 00:33:40.960
 that

00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:41.279
 we find

00:33:41.279 --> 00:33:41.400
 in

00:33:41.400 --> 00:33:42.279
 verse 2

00:33:42.279 --> 00:33:48.339
 Daniel

00:33:48.339 --> 00:33:48.579
 had

00:33:48.579 --> 00:33:49.240
 faithfully

00:33:49.240 --> 00:33:50.359
 served

00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:50.879
 his

00:33:50.879 --> 00:33:51.299
 God

00:33:51.299 --> 00:33:52.339
 and

00:33:52.339 --> 00:33:52.500
 that

00:33:52.500 --> 00:33:53.099
 translated

00:33:53.099 --> 00:33:53.420
 into

00:33:53.420 --> 00:33:54.079
 faithfully

00:33:54.079 --> 00:33:54.920
 serving

00:33:54.920 --> 00:33:55.519
 this

00:33:55.519 --> 00:33:55.839
 king.

00:33:57.519 --> 00:33:57.839
 And I

00:33:57.839 --> 00:33:58.180
 trust

00:33:58.180 --> 00:33:59.220
 for those

00:33:59.220 --> 00:33:59.759
 of us

00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:00.619
 who are

00:34:00.619 --> 00:34:01.539
 doing

00:34:01.539 --> 00:34:01.940
 our

00:34:01.940 --> 00:34:02.639
 service

00:34:02.639 --> 00:34:03.240
 as to

00:34:03.240 --> 00:34:03.379
 the

00:34:03.379 --> 00:34:03.619
 Lord

00:34:03.619 --> 00:34:04.039
 wherever

00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:04.720
 you are

00:34:04.720 --> 00:34:05.200
 that your

00:34:05.200 --> 00:34:05.619
 service

00:34:05.619 --> 00:34:06.180
 is to

00:34:06.180 --> 00:34:06.559
 God

00:34:06.559 --> 00:34:06.879
 and

00:34:06.879 --> 00:34:07.240
 what

00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:07.779
 that

00:34:07.779 --> 00:34:08.340
 entails

00:34:08.340 --> 00:34:08.940
 or what

00:34:08.940 --> 00:34:09.119
 that

00:34:09.119 --> 00:34:09.480
 means

00:34:09.480 --> 00:34:10.119
 is that

00:34:10.119 --> 00:34:10.300
 it's

00:34:10.300 --> 00:34:10.740
 also

00:34:10.740 --> 00:34:11.180
 helping

00:34:11.180 --> 00:34:11.420
 to

00:34:11.420 --> 00:34:11.880
 promote

00:34:11.880 --> 00:34:12.320
 and

00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:12.720
 encourage

00:34:12.720 --> 00:34:13.480
 and

00:34:13.480 --> 00:34:14.140
 advance

00:34:14.140 --> 00:34:14.800
 the

00:34:14.800 --> 00:34:15.160
 company

00:34:15.160 --> 00:34:15.360
 that

00:34:15.360 --> 00:34:15.539
 you're

00:34:26.180 --> 00:34:26.320
 he

00:34:26.320 --> 00:34:26.820
 understood

00:34:26.820 --> 00:34:27.800
 what

00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:28.019
 God

00:34:28.019 --> 00:34:28.300
 meant

00:41:20.880 --> 00:41:21.460
 like

00:41:21.460 --> 00:41:21.900

00:41:55.760 --> 00:41:56.039
 sheet

00:41:56.039 --> 00:41:56.420
 because

 we

00:41:57.300 --> 00:41:57.519
 know

 have

00:41:58.119 --> 00:41:58.760
 sinned

00:41:58.760 --> 00:41:59.099
 and

00:41:59.099 --> 00:41:59.340
 fallen

00:41:59.340 --> 00:41:59.780
 short

00:41:59.780 --> 00:41:59.920
 of

00:41:59.920 --> 00:42:00.019
 the

00:42:00.019 --> 00:42:00.220
 glory

00:42:00.220 --> 00:42:00.360
 of

00:42:00.360 --> 00:42:00.500
 God

00:42:00.500 --> 00:42:00.699
 we've

00:42:00.699 --> 00:42:00.880
 all

00:42:00.880 --> 00:42:01.519
 missed

00:42:01.519 --> 00:42:01.780
 the

00:42:01.780 --> 00:42:02.079
 mark

00:42:02.079 --> 00:42:02.300
 as

00:42:02.300 --> 00:42:02.440
 it

00:42:02.440 --> 00:42:02.679
 were

00:42:02.679 --> 00:42:03.099
 but

00:42:03.099 --> 00:42:03.360
 only

00:42:03.360 --> 00:42:03.900
 Jesus

00:42:03.900 --> 00:42:04.679
 has

00:42:04.679 --> 00:42:05.059
 lived

00:42:05.059 --> 00:42:05.220
 a

00:42:05.220 --> 00:42:05.480
 perfect

00:42:05.480 --> 00:42:05.880
 life

00:42:05.880 --> 00:42:06.199
 and

00:42:06.199 --> 00:42:06.300
 has

00:42:06.300 --> 00:42:06.460
 been

00:42:06.460 --> 00:42:06.840
 able

00:42:06.840 --> 00:42:07.159
 to

00:42:07.159 --> 00:42:07.880
 meet

00:42:07.880 --> 00:42:08.360
 the

00:42:08.360 --> 00:42:08.900
 standard

00:42:08.900 --> 00:42:09.139
 that

00:42:09.139 --> 00:42:09.320
 you

00:42:09.320 --> 00:42:09.420
 and

00:42:09.420 --> 00:42:09.539
 I

00:42:09.539 --> 00:42:09.720
 could

00:42:09.720 --> 00:42:09.880
 never

00:42:09.880 --> 00:42:10.139
 meet

00:42:10.139 --> 00:42:11.559
 and

00:42:11.559 --> 00:42:11.659
 so

00:42:11.659 --> 00:42:11.780
 he

00:42:11.780 --> 00:42:11.940
 paid

00:42:11.940 --> 00:42:12.079
 the

00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:12.400
 price

00:42:12.400 --> 00:42:12.720
 so

00:42:12.720 --> 00:42:12.820
 that

00:42:12.820 --> 00:42:12.900
 we

00:42:12.900 --> 00:42:13.039
 could

00:42:13.039 --> 00:42:13.360
 enjoy

00:42:13.360 --> 00:42:13.860
 forgiveness

00:42:13.860 --> 00:42:14.159
 that

00:42:14.159 --> 00:42:14.420
 comes

00:42:14.420 --> 00:42:14.800
 only

00:42:14.800 --> 00:42:15.220
 through

00:42:15.220 --> 00:42:16.059
 faith

00:42:16.059 --> 00:42:16.300
 in

00:42:16.300 --> 00:42:16.639
 Jesus

00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:17.500
 I

00:42:24.940 --> 00:42:25.119
 in

00:42:27.720 --> 00:42:27.920
 us

00:42:27.920 --> 00:42:28.119

00:42:33.500 --> 00:42:33.880
 away

00:42:33.880 --> 00:42:34.320
