Daniel in the Lions' Den — a 5-minute devotion for Downtown St. John's families

Daniel 6 · Faithfulness when it costs something

A new law made praying to God illegal. Daniel opened his window, knelt down and prayed anyway, three times a day, just as he always had. He was thrown to the lions — and in the morning he was unharmed.

This works best in Downtown St. John's as a bedtime reading. Lights low, Daniel 6 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "faithfulness when it costs something"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.

Memory verse

“My God sent his angel, and he shut the mouths of the lions.”
Daniel 6:22

Table question

What is one habit you want to keep even when nobody would notice if you stopped?

30-second prayer

God, give us Daniel's steadiness — the kind that keeps praying when it is inconvenient. Amen.

Make it stick: pick one person in Downtown St. John's — a neighbour, a grandparent, a classmate — and do the thing the story asks for before Sunday. Faithfulness when it costs something only counts once it costs something.

Tomorrow: the fiery furnace (Daniel 3). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
