TOPIC: FINDING FAVOUR WITH GOD AND MAN
6 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom one hundred and twenty satraps, to be over the whole kingdom; 2 and over these, three governors, of whom Daniel was one, that the satraps might give account to them, so that the king would suffer no loss. 3 Then this Daniel distinguished himself above the governors and satraps, abecause an excellent spirit was in him; and the king gave thought to setting him over the whole realm.
THE MESSAGE:
Daniel had the opportunity of serving under different kings in Babylon. In our text, another government had taken over – the Medes and Persian Dynasty-led by Darius who started his administration by appointing 120 officers to help him administer his kingdom. Daniel was part of it. Darius further appointed three governors of which Daniel was one to oversee the other officers. Because Daniel distinguished himself above the others and ‘because an excellent spirit was in him,’ Darius was contemplating appointing Daniel over other officers.
Like Daniel, we must be consistent, maintain a good testimony, be prayerful and honest in all we do. One day God will move men to remember you. People like Joseph and David succeeded during their time because of the favour of God and man. When David came into the house of Saul for the first time, King Saul loved him. It was the same for Joseph; he found favour with Portiphar who placed him (a total stranger and slave) in charge of his whole household. Equally, when he was thrown into prison for a crime he never committed, Joseph found favour with the warder who gave him charge over other prisoners; he was prisoner over other prisoners. The same thing played out between him and Pharaoh who handed Joseph the whole economy of Egypt without minding he was not ‘an indigene. ‘Favour can take you beyond heights you never bargained for. Let us always pray for favour!
PRAYER: Dear Lord, please grant me favour that will take me to greater heights in Jesus’ name
