Thank-You for the Trials - Hope in Exile - Daniel

Описание: 🦁 “Thank You for the Trials” | Daniel 6 | Pastor Nathan | WSPC Sermon
What if the way you live before the trial determines how you stand in the trial?
In this message from Daniel 6, Pastor Nathan challenges us to examine the patterns shaping our faith long before pressure hits.
Daniel didn’t survive the lion’s den because of a last-minute burst of courage—he stood firm because of a lifetime of private prayer, consistent gratitude, and daily dependence on God. Trials don’t reveal who we want to be; they reveal who we already are.
📖 Key Scriptures:
Daniel 6:1–11 | Matthew 5:10–16 | 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 | Philippians 4:4–8
💬 Highlights:
Why trials are inevitable—but panic is not
How your circle and inputs shape your spiritual reflexes
What made Daniel “distinguished” in a hostile culture
Why faith is personal but never private
The danger of wanting a lion’s den victory without everyday obedience
Why prayer must be a pattern, not a panic response
How gratitude rewires the heart and silences anxiety
Why thanksgiving keeps you aligned with God’s will
🙏 Daniel prayed, gave thanks, and stayed faithful—even when it was illegal.
Gratitude didn’t remove the lions, but it positioned Daniel for peace, confidence, and God’s protection.
🔥 Gratitude is kryptonite to fear, worry, and anxiety.
Learn how a thankful life prepares you to stand when the trial comes.
