GIVE TO GOD

FAITH CAPSULE: Give back to God by seeking Him diligently.

Daniel 1

Think of what to give back to God in the place of always asking from God.
Seeking God with a custom approach will gain the attention of God not to become a victim of the wicked world.
Daniel lives a life of seeking God with a custom approach that delivered him from the wicked law not to terminate his life.
Daniel was a young captive when Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon besieged Jerusalem.
In the early days of Daniel as the captive, the King requested for young men in whom there was no blemish, but good-looking, gifted in all wisdom, possessing knowledge and quick to understand, who could serve in the palace.” (Daniel 1:4)
Daniel and others were to be treated with the daily provision of the delicacies and the wine of the King for three years of training to become serving the King.
Daniel refused to accept the offer of the King.
The book of Daniel 1:8 records, “But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore, he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.”
The response of David is of one that seeks God but not man.
The response of Daniel was as sowing a seed of deliverance for his life.   
Daniel had a custom of seeking God since his early days.
In your life, do you have the custom approach (way, a practice) of seeking God?
Besides, running in and out of praying before God, do you have a unique (uncommon) means of seeking God?
Having the custom to seek God is not a casual way but should be seeking God diligently.
Daniel was committed to seeking God continually and could not fail God.
The custom of seeking God is like a seed that should not die but remain alive before God.
The custom way of Daniel was his seed, sown before God since his early days.
The life of Daniel demonstrates what it means to plant and reap from the seed of deliverance in times of troubling challenges. 
Daniel 6:10 points to all about the seed of deliverance of Daniel, “Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.” 
The custom of Daniel was the seed sown that delivered him in the time of challenge.
When having a custom of seeking God that acts for those who wait on Him, such cannot be possible to become a victim of the wicked world.
Sow the seed of seeking God continually and be counted as having a custom approach to God without failing.

Prayer for today: Ask God to take charge of your life to seek Him alone.
