AI OVERVIEW: Daniel's prayer life is deliberate, humble, and integrated into daily life: he turns his face to the Lord, sets aside distraction, and seeks God with fasting while he reads the prophets. He addresses God as the great and awesome God, the covenant-keeping Lord, and confesses on behalf of himself and Israel, 'we have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly,' acknowledging communal responsibility and personal fault. Reading Jeremiah 25 cues him to plead that the exile end in mercy, not by his own righteousness, but for God’s sake and for Jerusalem. Prayer here is intertwined with God’s unfolding plan, and daily Bible reading is presented as essential for right orientation and trust, even amid hardship.
