Daniel, Man
of God: Being a Man of Character in a Babylon World (retitled, revised, republished 2018) by Dwight L.
Moody. Narrated by Mark Christensen
If you study and read
biographies of heroes of faith outside Biblical characters, one of the names
that will most probably appear is D. L. Moody (1837-1899). Men of God like
Moody, R. A. Torrey, Andrew Murray, A. W. Tozer, John Bunyan, J. I. Packer,
etc. are treasures to Christendom. While most Christian leaders (celebrities?)
nowadays are light without heat and their books are average; these faithful men
through their writings, especially, are used by God to expound and explained
the Word of God with deep knowledge and mind on fire. Try reading contemporary
Joyce Meyer's God Is Not Mad at You and the classic Jonathan Edward's Sinners
in the Hands of an Angry God, you'll see the vast difference of view of the
sovereignty of God and the supremacy of Scripture.
Now, let's come back to
this book... D. L. Moody wrote with clear and context, simple and Scriptural,
powerfully and pleasurable to listen to through audiobook. It wasn't too
technical and easy to understand if you're already familiar with the Book of
Daniel in the Old Testament. The character and example of Daniel's (and his
friends') faith are ever relevant in the modern world. In fact, we need more
Daniels in our homes, churches, workplaces and government today. What kind of
man he was? Integrity before God and
men, uncompromised amid temptation, favor by kings without corruption or duit kopi, God-fearing rather than men-fearing,
faultless but not perfect, led by convictions rather than power, spiritual
leadership, and more. I feel so small standing on the shoulder of Daniel. I
knew my downfalls, inadequacies, and iniquities. This is good, right? As Mr.
Moody says, “The voice of sin is loud,
but the voice of forgiveness is louder.” Thank God for Christ, the
Forgiver. Only by the grace of God, I can imitate - to some extend - Daniel.
