WHEN THE TRUTH COSTS YOU SOMETHING
Our Daily Devotional | October 18, 2026
Text: Daniel 6:10
"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 kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed." — Daniel 6:10 (KJV)
Doing the right thing is easy when everyone supports you. But what happens when standing for truth could cost you a friendship, an opportunity, or someone's approval?
Daniel continued praying to God even when a new law threatened his freedom. He would not abandon his convictions to satisfy human pressure. His example reminds us that faithfulness is not measured only by what we say but by what we do when obedience becomes difficult.
A tree with deep roots can remain standing when strong winds blow. Build your life on God's truth so that pressure will not easily move you away from righteousness.
Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to stand for Your truth when it is unpopular or costly. Help me remain humble, wise, and faithful. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Have you ever had to choose between pleasing people and obeying God? What did that experience teach you?
