Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 6, 2021

In addition to a prayer of repentance, Daniel also offered up a prayer for the release of the Jews from their captivity in Babylon. Yet, the answer to his prayer was delayed, and it had something to do with an unseen battle.

Daniel’s prayer reminds ...read more
