May 2- Start Your Day Right Devotion Daniel 8:9-10 Out of one of them came another horn, which started small but grew in power to the south and to the east and toward the Beautiful land. It grew until it reached the host of the heavens, and it threw some of the starry host down to the earth and trampled on them. ANOTHER HORNOut of one of the horns came another horn that “started small,” referring to the Greek ruler, Antiochus IV Epiphanes, who in 168 B.C. set up an image of the Greek god Zeus in the Jerusalem temple and sacrificed a pig on the altar (Daniel 8:23-25). Judas Maccabeus later recaptured Jerusalem, purifying and rededicating the temple and altar to the true God (165 B.C.). BIBLE STUDY TOOLS I USE

March 11 - Start Your Day Right Devotion
Daniel 3:17-18 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to save us from it, and he will rescue us from your hand, O king. But even if he does not, we want you to know, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.
GOD, WE SERVE IS ABLE TO SAVE US
Being accused by these influential people (the astrologers) did not frighten these young men into compromising their faith. Neither did the king’s angry threats cause them to compromise their personal principles. Without hesitation, they boldly expressed their loyalty to the one true God. God had given them the strength to do the right thing, and they were completely confident that He would protect them (Psalms 46:1; 56:4). They also know that God’s judgment against sin and disobedience was far worse than anything people could do to them (Leviticus 26; Deuteronomy 28). They also know that God’s love and power to save them was grater than any power that man could provide to destroy them. Their faith was unconditional, no matter the outcome. Even if God did not rescue them in this particular situation, they refused to deny Him. Having faith does not mean we will always be spared from trouble. It takes more faith to stick with God through difficulty and danger than it does to escape the situation altogether. In a world that constantly pressures us to deny our faith and compromise our commitment to God, we must always remember that if we are ashamed of Him on earth, He will be ashamed of us on judgment day (Mark 8:38; Luke 9:26). But if we stand strong and boldly live for God in this life, He will stand with us both now and forever.

MARCH 10 - START YOUR DAY RIGHT DEVOTION
Daniel 3:12 But there are some Jews whom you have set over the affairs of the province of Babylon – Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego – who pay no attention to you, O king. They neither serve your gods nor worship the image of gold you have set up.
NEITHER SERVE YOUR GODS
Though the Bible teaches us to obey, honor and pray for those in authority over us (Romans 13:1-7; 1 Timothy 2:1-2; 1 Peter 2:13-17), our first duty is to God. If we obey what Jesus called “the first and greatest commandment” – to love the one true God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength (Deuteronomy 6:5; Matthew 22:37-38) – we cannot worship or honor any false god or any image representing a god. This would also include giving priority to anything above God in our lives.

MARCH 9 - START YOUR DAY RIGHT DEVOTION
Daniel 3:2 He then summoned the satraps, prefect, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates and all the other provincial officials to come to the dedication of the image he had set up.
THE DEDICTION OF THE IMAGE
At Daniel’s request, his three friends were appointed by the king to key positions in Babylon’s administration, while Daniel served the king directly (Daniel 2:49). Daniel may not have been present when the officials were commanded to bow down and worship the gold image. Perhaps his responsibilities were other than those mentioned in this verse, so it is possible that he would not have been called in at this time.

MARCH 8 - START YOUR DAY RIGHT DEVOTION
Daniel 3:1 King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, ninety feet high and nine feet wide, and set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon.
AN IMAGE OF GOLD
Nebuchadnezzar may have carried out this prideful act because of what had been revealed to him through Daniel (Daniel 2:37-38) – that he was the head of gold on the statue in his dream. Nebuchadnezzar’s empire had just risen to power, and he was surely trying to use some form of religion to unite all the territories he had recently added to his empire. His “religion” demanded worshiping the image as a way of promoting loyalty to himself. He was not the first, not will he be the last, world leader to use religion for political purposes or for self-promotion.
