—Prayer/Seeking—

  1. Opening Question:

    Is it harder to admit you were wrong, or to keep believing in a situation where nothing seems to change?

  2. What Does this Teach Us about God?

  3. What Does this Teach Us About People?

  4. Main Point:

    Honest prayer owns our sin. Daniel pleads with God not on the basis of his own goodness but on God's great mercy — a model of humble, persistent intercession.

  5. Discovery Questions:

    What prompts Daniel to start praying, and what is he reading beforehand? Daniel confesses sins he didn't personally commit, speaking of "we" and "us" — why do you think he prays that way for his whole people? What does Daniel base his appeal on: his own faithfulness, or something about God?
