Daniel 6:1-28 — In this sermon on Daniel 6:1–28 titled “Let Everyone Worship the God of Daniel,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones asks the listener if people talk about the Christian’s God like they talked about “the God of Daniel.” This is the only true and living God. What can the Christian do to proclaim their belief and trust in Him? Look at the faithfulness of Daniel in his work and character. He was a worker not marked by error or fault, but rather as being the best, most reliable, and honest of all workers. Listen to the history of other faithful Christians who proclaimed the gospel of Christ through their exceptional work ethic. Does the gospel have such a clear influence on the Christian’s life? It was obvious that Daniel knew the God he worshipped; he had a clear and specific religion that could be defined. Daniel did not even compromise his religion. There was no superficial excitement. Daniel stood on the gospel principles in the face of death itself. A man of character who thanked God, whatever the circumstances. The Christian is encouraged to know the way of salvation, so that they can rely upon God and be ready to suffer anything for Him.
