Daniel 6:10

LORD I’VE GOT A PROBLEM
This was at the time when Daniel had been placed above the prices by King Darius. He was place above the princes because of his excellent spirit. King Darius was considering making Daniel ruler over the whole kingdom. Doors were opened for Daniel because of his faithfulness. Don’t be fooled by the door. Someone is always waiting with the back door opened to push you out.
The Princes had become jealous of Daniel and was conspiring against him: IF YOU ARE FAITHFUL AND DOING THE LORD WORK PEOPLE WILL BECOME JEALOUS AND TRY TO FIND FAULT IN YOUR WORK.
The princes were checking on Daniel, They were keeping close account of his activities. They were trying to find something that they could use against him. They knew that if they were to find anything against Daniel it would have to be between him and the laws of his God. It would be nice if the only thin someone could find against us is being faithful to God. At this time there was no law against praying. So these men had to come up with something to use against Daniel.
The princes conspired and tricked King Darius into signing a decree that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days other than the king would be cast into the lion's den. The King thought that this was a good Idea. Not only did he sign the decree but sign that it not be change. Daniel was not at the meeting, but he knew the writing had been signed.
The bible says Daniel knew the writing had been signed, he went into his house, and his window being open towards Jerusalem. He kneeled upon his knees three times a day and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he had aforetime. Daniel had his prayer window open toward Jerusalem. Perhaps Daniel had heard of the prayer of King Solemn prayer (I Kings 8:30) that if my people because of their sin are in captivity and cannot get to this place Lord, if they pray toward these places hear their prayer. These princes were watching Daniel, peeping in his windows to see if he was going to pray to his God. They knew Daniel had a habit of praying three times a day. They knew if he prayed they had him.
The bible doesn’t say what Daniel prayed. I can imagine Daniel falling down on his knees and saying LORD I’VE GOT A PROBLEM. Daniel knew his problem wasn’t with the Lion because Daniel understood that God made the Lion and he also understood that God gave the Lion it roars. Lord I’ve got a problem. The writing has been signed and I am not to call upon your name. I can’t help but call on your name in the morning.
I can’t help but call on your name at the noonday.
I can’t help but call on your name when the sun goes down.
Lord I’ve got a problem. The lord is a problem solver. If you have a problem take it to Jesus. This reminds me of the Centurion that had a sick servant. He took it to Jesus and because of his faith in Jesus his servant was healed.
The princes went to the king and told King Darius that that Daniel, the captive of Judah disregardth your decree and is praying to his God. This displeased the King, when he heard this because he really liked Daniel.

The princes went tot the king and told King Darius that that Daniel, the captive of Judah disregardth your decree and is praying to his God. This displeased the King, when he heard this because he really liked Daniel. The bible says he labored until the sun going down to get Daniel out of the problem but those scheming men can to the king and said that it is the law of the Persians that once the writing had been signed it could not be changed.
Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting: neither were instruments of musick brought before him: and his sleep went from him. Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto the den of lions. And when he came to the den, he cried with a lamentable voice unto Daniel: and the king spake and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions?
Then said Daniel unto the king, O king, live for ever. My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions’ mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.
I was reading in the book of Revelation John say there was a book sealed with seven seals and no body was worthy to break the seal neither was anybody worthy to read the writing and John said he dropped his head and he wept but while he cried an Elders Cried out to him weep no more look to the tribe of Judah and look the Root of David.
Justice was calling for the blood of a lamb without spot nor wrinkle.
Jesus took off his royal robe came down to this sin sick world.
He met justice to pay off our indebtedness.
Justice said I want blood from a lamb without spot or wrinkle,
Jesus said no problem.
They marched him from judgment hall to judgment hall. The Bible says they whipped him all night long, and
with blood streaming down his back justice cried out more blood.
They platted a throne crown and pressed it on his four head,
Justice cried out more blood.
They through a cross on his shoulder and marched him up Calvary hill,
Dropped him down on the cross-nailed, his hands to the cross, out shot blood.
Justice looked at the blood running from his back,
Justice look at the blood running from his four head,
Justice looked at the blood running from his hand,
and cried out more blood, Jesus said no problem.
They drove spikes in hi feet, out shot blood.
Justice looked at the blood as Jesus hanging from the Cross with blood running from his back,
blood running from his four head,
blood running from his hand,
blood running from his feet;
Justice cried out more blood Jesus said no problem.
A roman soldier pierced his side
The bible says out shot blood and water.
Blood no problem.
Daniel said lord I’ve Got a problem. He prayed and God delivered him.
If you have a problem, tell Jesus. He is a problem solver.
The bible say that the king had Daniel taken out of the Lions den and the men that accused Daniel, the king had them their wives and their children tossed into the same pit with the same lions that would not eat Daniel and the lions had a mastery of them and brake all their bones.
The bible says he labored until the sun going down to get Daniel out of the problem but those scheming men can to the king and said that it is the law of the Persians that once the writing had been signed it could not be changed.
The king had no choice but to have Daniel cast into the lions den. The bible says that night the King sleep went away from him. He laid there, tossed and turned all night long. But early, Early the next morning he went to the pit and cried out Daniel, O Daniel and Daniel cried from the bottom of the pit King O King live forever, the God I know has delivered me from the lions mouth, for the Lord God I know. He knows I’ve done no wrong.
