Daniel in the Lion's Den
This weekend we are continuing our series called, "God is Big." The kids will be learning about God's protection through the story of Daniel in the lion's den. You can read the story in Daniel chapter 6.
Here's a devotional I found that ties in with this weeks lesson. Enjoy!
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7).
Bible Exploration: Daniel 6:1-23
Daniel faced significant hardship, and he endured because of his strong relationship with God. All of us face difficult situations. The question is, how will we respond? God delivered Daniel from the lions because Daniel trusted in God. How did that trust develop? Obviously Daniel had often presented requests to God and received answers. The more this young man came to know God, the more intensely he sought God. Daniel knew that God could be trusted, so he made it a point to give his anxieties to God.
To think about:
1. Why do many Christians continue to be anxious about their situations? (They don’t realize that God really is in control; we just reflect what the rest of the world does.)
