God Took Care of Daniel
(Daniel 3)
• King Nebuchadnezzar had a gold statue built. He ordered
everyone to worship the statue or to be thrown into a fiery
furnace.
• Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego would not bow down
to the statue because they knew that they should only
worship the One True God.
• The king was angry. The friends told him that they trusted
God to save them from the furnace, but even if He didn’t,
they still would worship only God.
• The friends were thrown into the furnace, but when the
king looked inside, he saw four men walking around in the
fire without being burned!
• King Nebuchadnezzar knew that God had rescued them
and began to praise God. He told everyone to worship the
One True God, too.
(Daniel 6)
• Daniel served many kings in Babylon. King Darius even
wanted to put Daniel in charge of his kingdom. Some men
did not like this so they looked for ways to get Daniel in
trouble.
• Because Daniel wanted to please God in everything, the
men could not find him doing anything wrong.
• The men asked the king to make a law that would have
anyone who prayed to any god or person except the king
thrown into the lions’ den.
• Daniel prayed to God just as he always had. The men told
the king and Daniel was thrown into the lions’ den.
• The king worried all night about Daniel. In the morning,
the king found Daniel unharmed.
• God took care of Daniel because he obeyed God’s laws.
