Daniel 2: 24-49 & 3

The story of Daniel interpretting the dream of the King. & of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego being thrown into the firely furnance and coming out unharmed.

Because these three men were willing to "Trust in [God] and defied the king's command and were willing to give up their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God" God protected them in the fire. He even sent someone to protect them and be with them inside the fire.
There are times in my life when I know I am being refined by fire. I must trust God and deny the ways of the world and he will be there. Seriously be there right next to me...
Thank you God for refining us by fire and standing next to us through it all.
