Daniel 6

In chapter 6 of Daniel. The king out-laws prayer to any god except himself. Daniel, hearing this, went up to his room and prayed. Quoting the Bible, "Now when Daniel learned that the decree had been published, he went home to his upstairs room where the windows opened toward Jerusalem. Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before." (Daniel 6:10) I wonder what would happen if the United States outlawed prayer. Would it change our lives so that we stop praying, or would we be like Daniel and continue praying as we always do?

  1. Daniel is an amazing example of living in the world but not compromising.
