Daniel’s Inspiration - Prayer

Written by Alfred Ofori Agyemang.


“He urged them to plead for mercy from the God of heaven concerning this mystery, so that he and his friends might not be executed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. During the night the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision. Then Daniel praised the God of heaven and said: “Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever; wisdom and power are his.” (NIV) Dan. 2:18-20

Daniel’s Inspiration has helped us to understand that we need to have a purpose, principles and perseverance to remain faithful in our Lord Jesus. Another arsenal for our Christian journey is Prayer. Many speak of it as the key to success in life. Why is that the case? Again, we can rely on Daniel for inspiration.

In Daniel 2, Daniel and his friends along with the magicians, enchanters, sorcerers and astrologers in the Babylonian kingdom were tasked to tell the King (Nebuchadnezzar) his dream and interpret it or they get executed. This was a mystery that is so impossible for any man to reveal since no one knows what is in another’s head let alone another person’s dream. But Daniel and his friend believed in the power of God and they accompanied their faith by fervent prayers. In response, God revealed the answer to Daniel (Dan. 2:18-20), which saved all the wise men in Babylon.

Beloved, there is power in prayer and a prayerful Christian remains a powerful and successful Christian. The time is now to build up your prayer life. You can do it!
