Are we currently experiencing a reenactment of Daniel in the Lion's Den?
No services today due to the snow, so we went to our "second team" TV preacher, David Jeremiah. He preached on Daniel 6, "Daniel in the Lion's den." He didn't make a whole lot of comparison with today, but he did make a comparison of the political actions (Daniel 6:4-7) to what is going on in Washington today. God put Daniel where he was, and, as the story plays out it is obvious that God was going to take care of him.
What I am about to say is going to raise the anger of some who are reading this, but when I step back and consider all that has happened over the last three years, the only way it really makes sense is that God has put Donald Trump into the President's chair. This has angered today's politicians just as did giving Daniel the supervision authority over Darius' entire kingdom. And they have reacted in a similar manner. Just in case a few readers don't know what happened next, the politicians of the day managed to maneuver the king into (very reluctantly) throwing Daniel into a den of hungry lions. He spent the night there, and the next morning the King pulled Daniel out, without a scratch on him. The perpetrators of this action were then thrown into the den and were devoured immediately.
In some regards, President Trump has already been thrown into the lion's den, and opposing politicians are egging the "lions" on, with expectation of him soon being devoured. The final act of this drama is yet to be seen, but if he was, indeed, placed there by God, he will come successfully through this trial and, as were the politicians of many years ago, his opponents will be thrown into oblivion.
Those who hate President Trump should read no farther. There is a possibility that your head will explode in anger. If God is really behind President Trump, just as Daniel is still revered by many today, with time he may join Presidents Washington and Lincoln as the most revered presidents of the United States.
