It's What You Do In The Den

Since the beginning of time, there have been folks that stir up a mess; the key is, how do YOU deal with the mess?
Let's take Daniel, he was distinguished, and the King planned to set him over the entire kingdom. And here comes the administrators and satraps (the bitter folk), you know who they are, they pretend they are happy for you, but they burn with jealousy and envy, trying to snatch the rug from under your feet and STILL have no clue why they cannot flourish.
So, the administrators and satraps tried to find FAULT (with no success) with Daniel in his affairs with the government. They knew they would not find any basis to charge him because he was not corrupt; however, they knew Daniel followed the law of his God! And THAT is what they went after.
The King ordered that no one was to pray to any "god" for the next 30 days or they would be thrown into the lion's den. Guess who ran telling that Daniel was STILL praying three times a day? Even after the Kind ignored them the first time, they were persistent until the King ordered Daniel to the lion's den.
The next day, the King hurried to the lion's den, and there was Daniel, unharmed! The King ordered Daniel out of the den and the men who falsely accused Daniel were thrown in the lion's den and the lions crushed them.
The King issued a decree to his kingdom:
"I issue a decree that in every part of my kingdom people must fear and reverence the God of Daniel".
See, some people will say and do anything to destroy you, and THAT should NOT be your focus! Your focus should be doing to others as you would like done to you, praying, meditating, and strengthening your mind, body, and Spirit; God shall deal with your enemies and those that try and cause you harm, and you will continue your predestined journey of a blessed life.
Do not worry about the den, concern yourself with what you do in the den!
