“Triumphing In Tests – Part 2”

Sunday, October 13, 2024

Key Verse

 “And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king enquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm” (Daniel 1:20).Text —Daniel 1:16-21

Message

Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah were young Jewish students in a foreign academy. Along with other young men of Babylonian origin, they were enrolled into a three-year program that would enable them, if successful, to discharge a very sensitive responsibility to the King of Babylon. The assignment was of so much importance and relevance that the king himself chose to be the final examiner. And it turned out that at the end of the training, when the final examination or test was administered, these four Jewish youths proved to be excellent, and were found ten times better.

What were the secrets of their success? Earlier in the text, we found Daniel with a resolve. He determined he would not defile himself and rejected the king’s meat and wine. He and his friends honoured God in their lives and God exalted them. They lived disciplined lives, refusing to indulge in the dainties and delicacies of Babylon. They were also studious, applying themselves to learn all the wisdom and tongue of the Chaldeans. Above all, they were prayerful, trusting God for wisdom and understanding.
