Meditate On
…“I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire;
and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.”
Daniel 3:25
God Is
With You In Your Fiery Trial
When Daniel’s friends, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego,
were cast into the fiery furnace by Nebuchadnezzar, guess who showed up? Jesus!
He was there in the furnace with them to protect and deliver them. Shadrach,
Meshach and Abed-Nego came out of the fire totally unharmed—“the hair of their
head was not singed nor were their garments affected, and the smell of fire was
not on them” (Daniel 3:27)!
My friend, when you go through a fiery trial, the Lord is
not somewhere far away, saying, “Yep, from the comfort of My heavenly throne, I
can see what you are going through. Even though I’m not with you, I can see
you, so just hang in there, okay?” No, He is right there with you in your
trial. Not only that, He will protect you and deliver you. The Bible says that
“God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are
able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be
able to bear it” (1 Corinthians 10:13).
So whatever the fiery trial you are going through today,
God is right there with you. He will protect you, comfort you and make a way of
escape for you. Put your hand in His hand and let Him bring you out of the
“furnace” without even smelling of the smoke of your negative circumstances!
