| Fourth Day: Review Daniel 5, concentrating on verses 10-17.
1. Who came into the banquet hall and what did she say? (Daniel 5:10)
2. How did she describe Daniel? (Daniel 5:11-12)
3. After calling Daniel, what did the king promise him if he could interpret the writing? (Daniel 5:16)
4. What did Daniel reply to the king? (Daniel 5:17)
5. Challenge: Read Genesis 14:14-23, and write down verses 22-23. Then read 2 Kings 5:1-16, and write down verse 16. How do these passages help you understand why Daniel refused to accept the king’s gifts in return for his interpretation?
6. Personal: Just as Abram refused to become obligated to anyone but God, and Elisha did not seek monetary gain for proclaiming the word of the Lord, Daniel also did not wish the king to think he was interpreting the writing in return for a reward. God wants every believer to serve others without thought of what we might receive in return. If you lived by this principle, how would it change your attitude and actions in the particular circumstances of your life? If you find it hard to serve without thought of return, why not pray about it now?
