✦ Personality Traits
✦ About
Daniel was a young Hebrew noble taken captive to Babylon who rose to become advisor to kings through his God-given ability to interpret dreams and visions. He served under Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, and Darius while never compromising his faith.
His faithfulness to God brought him into conflict with those who envied his position. When his enemies convinced the king to outlaw prayer, Daniel continued praying openly three times a day, accepting whatever consequence might come.
Daniel represents faithfulness in exile—maintaining integrity in a foreign culture, using gifts to serve while staying true to one's God, and trusting divine deliverance even in the face of death.
✦ Famous Story
Daniel's enemies had him thrown into the lions' den for praying to God. King Darius spent a sleepless night, then rushed to the den at dawn. Daniel called out, 'My God sent his angel and shut the lions' mouths.' He emerged without a scratch.
