“The form of the fourth is like the Son of God.” Da 3:25 NKJV
There comes a time when we have to face our fears and take a stand for what we know is right. That’s what Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego did. They risked their lives when they refused to bow to King Nebuchdnezzar’s idol. They could have rationalized, “But they took a stand for what is right, and it set the stage for miracles. “Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished…saying to his counselors, ‘Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?’ They answered and said to the king, ‘True, O king.’ ‘Look!’ he answered, ‘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;” (vv. 24-25 NKJV). When you place yourself in a defenseless position, it sets the stage for God to show up. But if Shadrach. Meshach, and Abed-Nego had bowed to the idol, (1) they would not have received promotions, (2) the Jewish people would not have gained protected status within the Babylonian kingdom, (3) idol worship would have continued in Babylon, and (4) Nebuchadnezzar would not have experienced a life-changing encounter with God. “Nebuchadnezzar spoke, saying, ‘Blessed be the God…who sent His Angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him…there is no other God who can deliver like this.’ Then the king promoted Shadrach. Meshach and Abed-Nego in the province of Babylon” (vv. 28-30 NKJV). By honoring God today, you are positioning yourself for Him to bless and honor you.
