"...If that is the case, our God whom we serve Is able to deliver us from the fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, o king. But if not, let it be known to you, o king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up." Daniel 3:17 [nkjv]
[1] ...THESE MEN KNEW THEIR GOD ...AND THEY MOVED IN THE PROPHETIC...note..."He will deliver us from your hand, o king"...
[2] ...THESE MEN WERE TOTALLY COMMITED TO THE THE LORD, WHATEVER THE COST !!!... "BUT IF NOT"......
[3]..THESE MEN HAD IRREVOCABLY DECIDED THAT THEY WOULD WORSHIP THE LORD AND HIM ONLY FOREVER !!!!!!
WHERE ARE MEN LIKE THESE TODAY ?....WHEN WE SEE AT EVERY HAND THOSE WHO WILLINGLY AND IMMEDIATELY 'BOW THE KNEE' TO........'POLITICAL CORRECTNESS'....'PEER PRESSURE'.....'POPULARITY'....'COMPROMISE'....'EXPEDIENCY'...'THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE'..'KEEPING ONE'S OPTIONS OPEN'....etc., etc. !!!!!!!!!!!!
The LORD Is seeking those ,at this time , who will commit to paying the ultimate price...if need be...and WHOLEHEARTEDLY.FOLLOW AFTER HIM.( as did Joshua and Caleb, to mention two others!!! ].
MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU.
