During a recent worship session, a song came into my spirit: "You are the fourth man in the fire, the one who does no wrong, the one who always comes true for His own." I sang this song, and although I only recall it during worship, its message stayed with me.
This morning, while reflecting on certain challenging events, I realized that God is our only ultimate help. Having relocated far from family and familiar surroundings, I sometimes face numerous challenges. In one of these moments, I thought of where and who would I depend on. The song's message became a reminder that "God is my security".
I thought about how God helped the three Hebrew men, and to me, that was a responsible Father who cared for His child caught in the world's fire.
Because they had an understanding of who God is they were able to say this From Daniel 3:16-18
16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered King Nebuchadnezzar, "Your threat means nothing to us.
17 If you throw us in the fire, the God we serve can rescue us from your roaring furnace and anything else you might cook up, O king.
18 But even if he doesn't, it wouldn't make a bit of difference, O king. We still wouldn't serve your gods or worship the gold statue you set up."
I often feel stuck in challenging situations, and while I know how to navigate some, I sometimes wish for a Father to guide me. As I sang, I thought about God's help and said, "Father, help me. You know best!"
Reading the story of the Hebrews, I saw God's fatherly nature and loved it more. It felt real to me. God is concerned with our life details and will step into any challenge with us if we acknowledge Him.
Stay Revived!
