How do we know God's sovereignty is true in the story of Daniel?

Answered in 1 source

The sovereignty of God is evidenced by His control over the events that led to Daniel's trial and subsequent deliverance.

In the account of Daniel in the lion's den, God's sovereignty is illustrated through the unfolding of events initiated by King Darius and the actions of Daniel's adversaries. The decree, which was designed to trap Daniel, ultimately exemplifies God's control over earthly powers. Darius, upon realizing he had been deceived, worked tirelessly to save Daniel, but the unchangeable law mandated that Daniel be thrown into the lions’ den. God's sovereignty is perfect and unwavering, as He ensured Daniel's safety, demonstrating His power over creation, even preventing harm from the lions. This reflects the broader theological tenet that God orchestrates events for His glory and the good of His people.
