Daniel was one of the most powerful men in Babylon. Evil men wrote a new law that everyone in Babylon had to bow down and worship the king, or be killed.

    Because Daniel worshipped only the Lord, he would not bow down before Darius. Daniel's enemies rejoiced. "King Darius, now you must punish Daniel. He has broken the law."

    Sadly, the king ordered that his friend Daniel be thrown into a den of hungry lions. How he marveled the next morning when Daniel was still alive. He wrote a letter to his nation, "Daniel's God is the living God. He does mighty miracles. He saved Daniel from the lions."
