Daniel lived during the very worst of times. His nation was apostate; Jerusalem lay in ruins, as did the temple; and he was an exile in a heathen country. Yet even in those desperate times Daniel became a man of unimpeachable character, moral strength, and spiritual integrity! Let me say it again—under the very worst of conditions God produced the very best of men—Daniel. Be encouraged. Although we are living in desperate times, God can do the same for your sons and daughters! He can transform them into godly men and women.

“They could find no corruption in [Daniel], because he was trustworthy and neither corrupt nor negligent.”

— Daniel 6:4 (NIV)

Father God, protect our children from every evil thing. Renew their minds and transform their character. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.
