Lions are magnificent creatures. I love to watch them—from a distance, in the zoo, with plenty of space and barriers between us.
Put me in front of a lion and who knows what levels of panic I will enter into. I don’t have any experience with a whip like Indiana Jones, but I can use Daniel’s strategy of prayer.
In light of my food allergies and intolerances, I frequently travel with a lot of my own food. It is not easy to explain or justify my food issues to customs officials, so I have adopted the practice of praying that God will shut the eyes of the customs officials just as he shut the mouths of the lions in the lion’s den.
Before each trip and every time that I go through customs, I voice that prayer. And God is faithful. Thus far, I have not had any major complications from the food that I bring into other countries.
I thank God for his faithfulness and ask that you join me in prayer that God will continue to shut the eyes of the customs officials whenever I travel.
But I also invite you to identify a lion in your own life. Is there something you are facing with more fear than faith?
Daniel’s example of the power of prayer to strengthen our faith is a formidable one. Let’s tackle our lions with a prayer of faith
