Life Saving Trust

Daniel 6:23 - Daniel had life saving trust in God who was able to deliver him from the lion's den. We don't have to scratch and claw our way out of the "lion dens" that we often find our way into. But we do have to trust in the One who can deliver us from the "lion's den." But that trust doesn't just happen, it is built over years and decades of following and obeying and experiencing His life saving power.

An appropriate question to ask ourselves is: What am I doing today that helps to build "Life Saving Trust" that I will need when I find myself in the "lion's den?" Am I spending time with God getting to know Him through His Word and through prayer? Or am I just expecting God to all of a sudden show up when I find myself in a place where I need Him - even though I haven't taken the time to build my relationship with Him?
