Daniel’s three friends
are confronted with the choice to bow down and worship the king’s image or to
face certain death in the fiery furnace. Courage in the face of fire is
uncommon. Clearly Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were living for the glory of
another. Their faith in the Almighty God and trust in His perfect plan allowed
them to remain faithful. In preparation for our corporate gathering on Sunday
morning, seek God’s grace to live for fully for His glory.
