Devotion:
Read Daniel 3:14-18.
Three young Hebrew men are able to stand up to a foreign ruler’s demands because they have a close relationship with their God, whether they are in this world or go on to be with God in the next world. They knew what they were doing. They had counted the cost. They had measured the risk. They were well aware what the outcome of their actions would be unless God miraculously intervened, which He did. They were convinced that their stand was right and that loyalty to God required them to take it. They were determined to honor God regardless of what anyone else was doing because they knew that God was with them. He was with them in the present and would be with them in life or death. Because of their stand, God also proved to Nebuchadnezzar that He was above any god and was the one true God. Everyone present during this event had the opportunity to experience the miraculous power of God because three men decided to stand for truth.
Personal Worship Option:
Is God calling you to stand for Him? Ask him for boldness and courage. He will be with you - you can trust God, no matter what!!
