Word: Daniel 6:1-10
If you believe in Jesus and obey the words of the gospel, you can become strong.
* Requires professionalism and dedication.
Believing in Jesus is also a profession.
- A person who has expertise in everything always has excellence.
- You must lead a life of faith with excellence.
* You must not live your life of faith as if you were drunk with alcohol.
It is not only if you listen to your prayers, but your prayers must be answered.
There are results of answers in the life of faith and prayer with excellence.
Representative person: Daniel
1. The people around Daniel plot two conspiracies. (Daniel's Crisis)
1) Daniel's background was investigated. - Investigation of personal life (verse 4)
“Therefore, the prime ministers and dignitaries searched for grounds for accusing Daniel about the affairs of the country.
slept, but found no ground, no fault, for he was faithful and found no fault, no fault.”
* What is Satan's strategy number 1 for those with excellence in faith?
It is a “conspiracy”. - Trying to get into trouble by making nonsensical words into words.
What is the mothership? - A way to lower morale.
- Are we being evaluated like this?
Are you not spying on other people, or are you proud of yourself after being investigated?
* How about a life of faith? It shouldn't be a dirty life.
Behind the scenes of faith? feel uncomfortable
But if you're honest and naive, you'll be scared no matter who strikes you or stalks you
none.
Why - not? otherwise it is (Be bold)
2) The law was amended to trap. (Verse 7) -- the standard has been lost
All.
* Does a person of faith live properly?
Even that is inconvenient to plant, and even using all the laws of the world, it is incapacitated.
try to do
- All standards focus on the neutralization of faith.
Live by your faith! The more you try to live a person of outstanding faith, the more
They will fight with standards that they do not understand even if they say they are standards.
- People in the world attack morally, using organizations.
- Live your life with one clear standard in the world.
(Jews: Talmud, synagogue law)
If there are no standards of living, standards of religious life, and standards of family, confusion in values will occur.

What is the soybean flour faith?
Living without distinguishing between God's and man's, what is obedience
I know it with my head, but I do not kneel before God.
2. Characteristics of Faith that Daniel Overcame
First, faith as a person of the pure Holy Spirit.
1) Although Daniel was 80 years old, he did not lose his clean appearance.
* Even in the process of changing the government three times, his position does not change at all.
silver person.
In a world full of words and winds, the light shines even in a situation where people are arguing and belittling others.
a sweaty person
Why did it shine? He was a clean person in everything.
A person with a pure soul, what comes out of that soul is pure and pure.
Forgetting that clean people, clean people make the world clean,
Can not be done.
** The Holy Spirit makes people refresh (fresh and new) every day.
What powers does the Holy Spirit have? Throwing away the old and changing it to the new
All.
Who has depth? A person who is governed by the Holy Spirit.
Even if the years change, even if the government changes, even if there are other people's conspiracies and envy,
Is Daniel deepened by the Holy Spirit?
** I have become a person who cannot be touched.
What if you float in the water? dead meat
Who is the Holy Spirit? You have to be a living person.
ex) Daniel was not satisfied with his life.
** Daniel was refreshed and agile.
what is agility? It's not that I lived a fast life in the world.
He was neither opportunist nor flattery.
He was a man who was firm in the standards of God's Word.
He knew what the results of a life led by the Holy Spirit would bring.
ex) When you didn't eat Nebuchadnezzar's delicacies?
God’s response to his open-minded faith and faith led by the Holy Spirit
It should be clear how you reacted.
** He possessed the amazing Spirit of God and was guided.
In other words, he was a man with a new wind of the Holy Spirit.
“The righteous will prosper like a palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
It is planted in the house of the LORD; it will prosper in the courts of our God. get old
It also bears fruit, is full of sap, and is green in light, showing the uprightness of the LORD
come down The LORD is my rock; there is no unrighteousness in him.
(Psalm 92:12-15)
** A person who supplies others like a palm tree.
Do not be sad even if you are sometimes humiliated and embarrassed that you do not understand.
What if we are clean and governed by the Holy Spirit?
God guides and takes charge of his life.
Second, do you want to overcome the crisis? Have faith as a person of prayer.
1) What must we do to be filled with the Holy Spirit?
** What maintains the capacity of fullness? must be meticulous should be sensitive Routine
must be the enemy
Who is distracted? Before you receive the filling of the Holy Spirit, your heart will
do.
Who is distracted? Words and actions are also scattered.
2) Gathering what is dispersed is the key to being filled with the Holy Spirit.
** The only way to keep being filled with the Holy Spirit is through prayer.
Who is Daniel?
Daniel was a man who had the habit of praying on a regular basis.
3) A person whose prayer is structured
ex) Are you in danger? Are you surprised? Are you at risk?
What should come out of your lips?
It's not "Oops, you were lucky" or "Hey, I took it for 10 years".
“Lord!”, “Father” “Thank you”
4) It seems that now is an easy time to lead a life of faith.
** There is a Christian broadcast. Who knew that today's Christian broadcasts would exist?
You can listen to high-quality, luxurious and gracious words through the Internet.
Hearing is a player. No matter what I did to listen, I tried to focus
All.
But don't pray.
* Why is there no time to pray?
They are too busy to have time to pray.
There is no time to pray to hear the Word.
There is no time to pray because there is no time for a class meeting.
I don't have time to pray because I have to go to church to serve.
All.
5) Pray now when you can.
** Stop thinking about doing it slowly or later.
Then it will never happen
I think prayer can be done at any time.
Prayer is concentration. A prayer that the person who prays lights a fire when he has concentration
can do
Those who can pray normally can pray in times of crisis.
ex) Who prayed only when eating? What prayers come out in times of crisis?
Who is written or habituated One word, the language you speak
focus only on
6) Pray so that prayer becomes the constitution.
** Prayer has the same meaning as physical improvement.
Your God, whom you serve all the time, will save you’ (Daniel 6:16).
** Make prayer a habit.
Ten commandments for a proper prayer life.
① Set a time for prayer in advance. (Especially early morning prayer)
② Pray at the appointed time, regardless of circumstances and mood.
③ Find a secret place where prayer is not obstructed.
④ Even a short prayer should be made into a daily life of prayer.
⑤ Listen to or meditate on the Word before prayer - Pray based on the Word.
⑥ Concentrate on intercessory prayer - You have the power to make prayer strong and broad.
⑦ Pray aloud - Pray with concentration. clutter disappears
⑧ When you pray, believe that you have received it.
“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer,
Believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (Mark 11:24).
⑨ Prepare a prayer notebook and pray.
Record the prayers you prayed for during the morning prayer in your prayer notebook. and check it
la.
⑩ Pray according to God's will.
It is morning prayer to satisfy the Ten Commandments, so do your best to pray in the morning.
Those who pray, especially those who pray in the morning, overcome the crisis.
Third, a person of pure moral faith overcomes the crisis.
1) Excellent faith is required, but what is required of saints is excellent morality.
All.
If the believer does not excel in morality, light and salt are
can't be
** I have to see my life and live a life that people can change.
The American Leadership Tradition: Moral Vision from Washington
A book called to Clinton?
This book laments the immorality of Bill Clinton.
This book examines the relationship between the faith and policy decisions of the 16 presidents of the United States.
It is a book that has been researched as a result of the analysis.
** Conclusion: Those who are faithful in one part are also faithful in the other part.
The conclusion was reached.
2) How can believers in Jesus be able to influence society?
** You must be more than 40% morally different from the general world.
ex) moral superiority, honesty
- The problem is that people who believe in Jesus have morals that are not understood more in common sense
is losing
ex1) Even if the floor is dirty, what about the people of the world? once you pick it up
If you run out of tissue paper in the chapel, someone else will pick it up!
ex2) When people from all over the world gather, they are crazy about what they wear and what they eat.
When we meet at church, it is right to talk about faith. This dress is that dress
better than saying
“In the great house there were not only vessels of gold and silver, but also vessels of wood and earthenware.
Some use it quickly and some write it slowly, and there are vessels to be used before God.
be this (2 Timothy 2:20)
3) If it is a bowl, you must live according to its purpose.
** Be sensitive to speech and language use.
What is impeccable to Daniel is the language spoken to God
The level of language spoken was the same.
ex) Do not use vulgar words or humor.
4) Characteristics of the vessel being used: It is clean.
Please live like a bowl that has been cleaned.
** It is very difficult to use a vessel that cannot distinguish whether it is this or that vessel.
All.
A bowl that is easy to distinguish whether it is a soup bowl, a rice bowl, or a side dish bowl,
Crabs should be in a bowl suitable for their intended use.
ex) Don't live with a bowl of bibimbap.
5) If we live purely for God, we can live in the place of death.
** Fight proudly.
Sometimes the Lord does not rescue them and allows them to even enter the lions' den.
Then enter the lion's den.
Then God will surely save you.
