Now When Daniel Heard

Daniel 6:10-12

"Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house, and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he got down upon his knees three times a day and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he had done previously.
Then these men came thronging [by agreement] and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.
Then they came near and said before the king concerning his prohibitory decree, Have you not signed an edict that any man who shall make a petition to any god or man within thirty days, except of you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be changed or repealed."

"...As he had done before..." Daniel heard that they got the king to sign their papers. He went straight up and opened his windows towards Jerusalem. After that he continued serving The Lord like he always has... Better to be right before The Lord Jesus... Than with with any other thing...
