“即便如此,我们所事奉的上帝能将我们从烈火的窑中救出来。王啊,他也必救我们脱离你的手;”
但以理书 3:17
“If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire; and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king.”
Daniel 3:17
When King Nebuchadnezzar threatened to throw Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego into a blazing furnace if they didn’t turn away from the true God to worship his golden statue (Dan. 3:13–15), these three men displayed courageous and confident faith. They never doubted the Lord was worthy of their worship (v. 17), “even if” He didn’t rescue them from their current predicament (v. 18). And God didn’t leave them alone in their time of need; He joined and protected them in the furnace (vv. 24–25).
God doesn’t leave us alone either. He remains with us through trials that can feel as destructive as Nebuchadnezzar’s furnace. Even if our suffering doesn’t end on this side of eternity, God is and always will be mighty, trustworthy, and good. We can rely on His constant and loving presence.
Lord,
thank You for being with us, no matter what we’re going through.
Faith relies on our Almighty God’s unchanging character, not on our circumstances.
