Daniel 2

Then Daniel went to his house, and made the decision known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions, that they might seek mercies from the God of heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. vv.17-18

Read chapter 2
Wise move on Nebuchadnezzar's part in this chapter.  He wanted his dream to be interpreted, but instead of the astrologers, wise men, magicians  to interpret after they heard the dream the king said they must tell him what the dream was; he must have known they were charlatans and was putting them to the test.  But oh how great the true God is that knows all things, our every thought and dream even.  This wasn't just any dream either but a prophetic dream from God to a gentile king.  
Now Daniel, Hannah, Mishael, and Azariah are about to be killed because, as we remember from chapter one they were placed as wise men and all wise men were being killed until someone could tell and interpret the king.  They were placed as wise men because God gave them His wisdom the superseded everyone else, yet now it seems like God put them in a life-threatening situation because of this- kind of ironic isn't it?  They probably never felt so dependent on God as this situation.  If we're never at risk and always in our safe bubble, makes you wonder if we're living by faith and full trust and reliance on God.  How sweet it was too for Daniel not to be alone in this, but after he heard the news of what the king was commanding he went to his friends to pray together.  Oh how I hope every believer out there has someone to run to and pray with at any given moment.
Have or are you being called to a place of danger or discomfort that you learn to trust and lean on Christ more?  Do you have a prayer partner?  If so, what's that like?  If not, how can you seek one out?
