What does it say about the king and his belief in God when he has a person cast into his execution pit and yet he comes out the next morning with the hope and expectation that Daniel might be alive?
Does he have no confidence in his own methods of execution? Or has his time around Daniel taught him such amazing things about Daniel's God that the king is prepared to expect the miraculous?
I don't know what Daniel did when he was serving the king, but clearly the king was prepared to accept that the miraculous was possible with Daniel's God. Daniel must have been a pretty amazing witness to teach the king that God could do such things.
What kind of stories do we tell? How do we talk about God? Would the people around us expect God to do the same? Do we communicate a story of a God who can do such wondrous things?
