Daniel 3: 1-30; The Image of Gold and the Fiery Furnace

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.

Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego are some of the most beloved characters in all of the Bible, and not just because they were able to stand in a fire and not get burned. They are also loved because they refused to recant their faith. They had the chance to stop believing in God and worship the idol the king had set up, but instead they held true to their faith and continued to believe in, worship, and rely on God. And in the end they were saved from the fire. In the end their faith in God was vindicated. When we are thrown into the fire, will our faith be as strong? When we are faced with persecutions, as well as trials and tribulations, what will we do? Will we turn away from God and follow someone/thing else? Or will we continue to believe in God and call on his name. We know what Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego would do. What would we do? God bless you.

Pastor Josh
