Theme of the Month: The Secrets of Victory
Mon, 29 August

“The wicked worketh a deceitful work.” (Prov. 11:18).

When the princes brought their charge against Daniel, the king suddenly realised how he had been fooled and deceived. He had signed the decree without thinking. That is how many officials to get into trouble. They don’t look into the papers sufficiently before they sign them. We should never sign any paper before we have properly read and understood it. Though Darius was a good king he was foolish. Sometimes we can be both good and foolish, and that is why human goodness is often no real goodness at all. If we trust God, He will give us true wisdom, and thus save us from all evil schemes.

The king found he was helpless. He longed to deliver Daniel from the lions’ den, but every effort failed. Though he tried all day, he found he could not succeed because when he had signed that paper, it became “a law of the Medes and Persians which altereth not.” Now he wanted to change what he had signed but the princes said, “No, No, You cannot alter the laws of the Medes and Persians.” Then the king realised that he could not alter the law, and those crooked, cunning men had deceived him. He was now bound by his own word, and was forced to issue the command himself that Daniel was to be cast into the den of lions. (Ch. 6:16 ).
