“Dale Davis well says, ‘Sometimes God may allow hardships to reach us because he wants his mercy to reach beyond us’ (Message of Daniel, 36). God’s purpose in such hardships is almost always multifaceted. He allows suffering in the lives of his people to demonstrate his sovereignty, strengthen their faith, show himself wise and strong, and put his glory on display among the nations that they might be drawn to him.” (Daniel 1:1–3)

“Deliverance and rescue are not the issues. Confession and obedience are, even if they cost them their lives.” (Daniel 3:16–18)

“God, Who Knows the Future, Predicted the Rise of Antiochus IV Epiphanes (8:9–14)” (Daniel 8:9–14)

“When you walk into a fiery furnace, rest assured, Jesus is already there waiting for you.” (Daniel 3:19–30)
