Daniel had a strong faith in God and God rewarded his faithfulness when he was lowered into the lion’s den for praying to a different God unknown to the god of the land.

Sub-Topic 3: GOD’S PROTECTION AVAILABLE FOR ALL PEOPLE AT ALL TIMES. PSALM 91

From all appearances both in the Old and New Testaments added to present day events, occurrences and experiences, it is very clear that God never forsakes those that are faithful to Him.
