Good morning everyone and welcome back to another mornings with the Masters where we devote ourselves to the Lord daily with you.

We are picking up with day three of our God comes through and protecting you devotional in the Bible app.

There's a link to that in the description if you want to follow along.

And as always I'm going to read the scripture that I'm also going to pick with the devo.

The scripture is Daniel chapter 6 versus 16 through 28.

And they say this, so at last the king gave orders

for Daniel to be arrested and thrown

into the den of lions.

The king said to him, may your God whom you serve so faithfully, rescue you.

A stone was brought and placed over the mouth of the den.

The king sealed the stone with his own royal seal and the seals of his nobles

so that no one could rescue Daniel. Then the king returned to his palace and spent the

night fasting. He refused his usual entertainment and couldn't sleep at all.

Very early the next morning the king got up and hurried out to the lion's den.

When he got there he called out in anguish.

Daniel, servant of the living God,

was your God whom you served so faithfully able to rescue you from the lions?

Daniel answered,

Long live the King. My God sent his angel to shut the

lion's mouth so that they would not hurt me, for I have been found innocent in his

sight and I have not wronged you, your majesty. The king was overjoyed and ordered that

Daniel be lifted from the den. Not a scratch was found on him, for he had trusted in his God.
