Daniel Prays in the Lions’ Den

Daniel stands unharmed among resting lions inside a rocky den, lifting one hand upward in prayer while the beasts lie subdued around him. The cavern setting and the calm authority of Daniel identify the biblical account in which the faithful servant of God is cast into the lions’ den for continuing to pray despite the king’s decree. The scene emphasizes divine deliverance: Daniel does not fight the lions, but entrusts himself to the Lord, and God shuts their mouths. This artwork is well suited for teaching on courage, steadfast prayer, persecution, faithfulness, and God’s protection in the book of Daniel.
