✝️ BREAD OF THE WEEK
What if the very pit meant to destroy you…
is the place God reveals His power to save?
Verse of the Week:
📖 “My God sent His angel, and shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not hurt me, because as before Him innocence was found in me.”
— Daniel 6:22 (WEB)

Daniel in the Lions’ Den: God’s Power to Rescue 🙏
Personal Reflection:
Daniel’s story is more than a children’s tale—it’s a blueprint of courage in the face of schemes, darkness, and fear.
He was faithful when compromise was easy.
He prayed when prayer was outlawed.
And when the pit opened wide, he trusted the God who never fails.
Deliverance didn’t come before the lions.
It came in the middle of the den.
Your own “lions” may not have fur and fangs.
They may look like fear, betrayal, or shame.
But the God who silenced the roar for Daniel can silence the enemy circling you today.
Remember King Darius’ decree in Daniel 6:26–27:
“He is the living God, steadfast forever. His kingdom will not be destroyed. His dominion will never end. He delivers and rescues.”
The pit is not your end.
It’s the place where God’s glory breaks through.
Prayer of Rescue in the Den
Lord,
Thank You that when the lions roar, You are greater.
Thank You for the angel You sent to shut their mouths for Daniel. (Daniel 6:22)
Teach me to stand faithful, even when the world schemes against me.
When fear stalks my heart, remind me that Your dominion has no end. (Daniel 6:26)
Silence the lies of the enemy,
scatter every plan of darkness,
and let my life be a testimony that You still rescue.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen

🍽️ PRAYER PANTRY
This week, we’re praying for anyone surrounded by fear, pressure, or betrayal.
If that’s you—God’s hand is with you in the den.
If you know someone—forward this to remind them they are not alone.
🙏 Prayer:
Lord,
For the one facing betrayal—be their defender.
For the one trapped in fear—shut the lions’ mouths.
For the one waiting for dawn—bring Your deliverance.
Let every den become a testimony,
and every roar fall silent before Your power.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
Praying for you this week—
He still delivers.
