Title: I will protect you
Contents:
When Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon returned from defeating Israel, he fell in great pride and had to make a golden statue. He made a huge statue 30 m high and 3 m wide. At the inauguration ceremony to enshrin this huge statue, all the people bowed down to the sound of musical instruments. Anyone who does not bow down will be thrown into the blazing furnace.
The dignity and command of the king at that time was absolute. Also, the people, who were oppressed by the threat of the furnace, fell to their knees so that no one could resist.
This shows the event in which millions of people will succumb to the threat of the Antichrist at the end of the day. However, God protected those who kept the faith until the end.
He protects you from the accusations and accusations of princes.
The Chaldean princes were not the ones to hand over it. With all their might, they accused Daniel's three friends. The world and the devil are our accusers. Satan accused the righteous Job against God.
He protects you in the scorching furnace.
Daniel's three friends had to be thrown into the fiery furnace. There was no one to defend them or take their side. Rather, they are only accusers and ridiculers. The princes and people gathered together like a cloud, not only accusing them, but also making the king's orders to be thrown into the furnace. The furnace was made 7 times hotter than usual, so hot that those who held Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were burned to death.
But something strange happened. He was bound and thrown into the fire, and there was a man with him, unbound and unbound, and he looked like a son of God, said Nebuchadnezzar.
That is what the Lord has kept.
There is no need to be discouraged when there is no one, no one to protect me. The Lord is a helper and a protector. The Lord is with people of faith wherever and whenever.
raises you even higher.
Tribulation not only brightens the faith of the believers, but also becomes an opportunity to reveal the glory of God. After overcoming all temptations, God elevated Joseph to become the prime minister of Egypt. Job's righteous faith shone like gold after going through the long passage of hardship. Daniel, who was thrown into the lions' den and came back to life, gained more and more honor.
If you keep your faith in any situation
God protects and helps.
