The King Looks for Daniel

King Darius leans over the rocky mouth of the lions' den, raising his hand as he calls down to Daniel. Inside the deep pit, the aged prophet lifts his face upward in calm trust, preserved through the night by the God he refused to stop worshiping. A praying child at the side connects Daniel’s faithfulness with a devotional response for young learners and ministry teaching.

The scene reflects Daniel 6, when Darius hurried to the den at dawn and cried out to see whether Daniel’s God had saved him from the lions. Daniel’s deliverance proclaims that faithful prayer is not silenced by human decrees and that God rules above earthly kings.
