J Curve | Contentment To Backlash | Week 1

Pastor Derek Meekins

( Daniel 5:17-30 )

Nothing wrong with contentment, in fact it’s a scriptural command to be

content in life for it keeps us from chasing after things we shouldn’t. With

that said, contentment can also be problematic, especially when it causes

us to settle when God doesn’t want us to settle. As great as it was for

Daniel to be favored by Nebuchadnezzar, God had more in store for Daniel

while in exile.

When Persia unexpectantly conquered Babylon, Daniel had a new boss,

Darius King of Persia. No longer could Daniel rely on his past

accomplishments rather he had to prove himself once again to a new king

who had no appreciation to his faith in God

In contentment to backlash, teach on what happens when God wrecks our

comfortable existence by allowing a trial that stretches us. Teach on what it

was like for Daniel and how God used this experience to grow his faith.
