God is not a man, so he does not lie.

He is not human, so he does not change his mind.

Has he ever spoken and failed to act?

Has he ever promised and not carried it through?

Listen, I received a command to bless…

Do you know how God controls the storm

and causes the lightning to flash from his clouds?

Do you understand how he moves the clouds

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.”

Very early the next morning,

the king got up and hurried out to the lions’ den.

…”Daniel, servant of the living God!

Was your God,

whom you serve so faithfully,

able to rescue you from the lions?”

Daniel answered…

“My God sent his angel to shut the lions’ mouths…”

Daniel 6:16, 19-22

…His rule is everlasting,

and his kingdom is eternal.

All the people of the earth

are nothing compared to him.

He does as he pleases

among the angels of heaven

and among the people of the earth.

No one can stop him or say to him,

‘What do you mean by doing these things?’

…praise and glorify and honor the King of heaven.

All his acts are just and true,

and he is able to humble the proud.

he heard us and sent an angel

who brought us out…

when you first learned about Christ.

Remember how you remained faithful…

that will last forever.
