Through the life of Daniel we learn how he was recognized as having an excellent spirit. The excellence in Daniel's life was achieved not by a gift from God but by choices that he made in his life. Like Daniel we are not to allow the spirit of this world to taint our lives. Daniel also was a man of prayer that chose  to trust in his God to deliver him . If you are going to be the kind of person that God can trust to carry a great anointing, you need to be a person of prayer and to live a righteous life. God is looking throughout the earth for those who have a humble heart and an excellent spirit.
