A paragraph for Daniel
Stephen, John, Paul, Peter – a thousand ready-names! No doubt, parents christen their children after biblical heroes so those names could redound on their lives.
But hardly anyone remembers anymore, it seems, the import and meaning of these names. How could a Moses, for instance, be bereft of leadership acumen and spiritual prowess? Why would a man be named Paul yet he be ordinary; yet he be not imbued with burning zeal for Christ? But let’s concern ourselves with Daniel today. Daniel of the Bible is such a man of impact and character that he makes a book of the Bible. And his is no ordinary book just as he is no mean man. Daniel epitomizes godliness. His very life is a book on faithfulness, integrity, discipline and contentment. For instance, Daniel preferred vegetables and water to the king’s special delicacies. The king’s meal is abomination to Daniel; a defilement. .
King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, ruler of that ancient kingdom was so thrilled by Daniels divine nature that he bowed before Daniel and worshipped Daniel’s God. And at the height of his power and eminence, Daniel prevailed even in the den of wild lions. The captive boy from Judah had been catapulted by sheer excellent spirit to exalted position of leadership.
