Today I read the familiar story of Daniel in the lions’ den (Dan. 6:16-28). I was especially struck by the parallel I saw between this story and what is happening to Donald Trump. In Daniel’s story jealous, fellow administrators were unable to find anything against Daniel so they had to concoct something related to his beliefs. In Trump’s case too, it is very hard to find anything against him (because his records are so clean). So, they concocted some bogus case and now they intend to throw him into the lion’s den—or so many years in jail!

It is amazing that in every time and in every culture we find evil men who are intent on doing evil against good men. I guess it is the nature of evil to always want to drag a good man down to your level.

I pray that the end for Trump will be much like it was for Daniel—that God would send His angel to shut the mouths of the lions and that instead the evil men would be found out and judged.
