In the “Daniel and the lion’s den” story, Daniel’s peers became jealous of Daniel. To eliminate Daniel as a competitor, these jealous peers convinced King Darius to force everyone to worship only the king, which Daniel violated.
Amazingly, Daniel didn’t whine to the king. He didn’t try to get even with his attackers. Most importantly, he didn’t forsake his commitment to God to save his own life.
Daniel continued to worship and pray to God daily while trusting God.
In Daniel 6:22, Daniel told the king, “The lions have not harmed me, because I was found blameless before him; and also before you, O king, I have done no harm.”
If you are being attacked by others, consider standing righteously like Daniel and become known for doing no harm.
