Setting the Stage:

Body

The enemy takes steps to disrupt godly normal rhythms of life.

Step 1: The enemy has placed his people in key positions (6).

Step 2: The enemy employs subversive means to disrupt godly rhythms (7-8).

Step 3: The enemy tricks people into playing into his schemes (9).

MTR: Recognize that the enemy is working to upset a godly lifestyle.

I try not to get into the political realm too often because my priority is to teach the Bible. However, I will say, this action step is very applicable this year. There are leaders who are seeking to subvert godliness. I frankly, worry about some of the constitutional amendments that are being proposed and would encourage you to read them not with an eye to how this might be a benefit but with an eye to the question, "might this be used like Darius to hurt those who are following God?"

The acquiescent play into the enemies games.

Darius greatly valued Daniel (1-3, 14).

Darius allowed his own pride to get in the way (6, 12).

MTR: Pray for wisdom and discernment as you go through life.

The faithful turn to God.

Character matters even in the normal rhythms of life (4-5).

=Prayer cannot be sacrificed no matter the cost (10-13).

Glory must be given to God (16, 21-22).

MTR: Determine to be faithful in your rhythms of life.
