“Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire. And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king’s counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them. Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God. Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon.” Daniel 3:26–30

Beloved,
Say to those that are lost — there is a Deliverer.
Say to those that are without hope — there is a God.
Say to those that are in bondage or prison — that there is Freedom.
We are changed from the inside out — that within us is a Fire that desires to consume us with the Presence of God. That all flesh will be burned up in a Fire that brings a transformation of Holiness.
God will arise within us — we will be anxious for nothing; we will stand in the Presence of God — praising and worshiping His Name, Jesus.
To be steadfast in the belief that God is who He says He is — the Great I Am — is gained through Trust and a heart that is open to hear His Voice.
Father, in the Name of Jesus — come now and fill us up. Let not one part of us, be spared from Your Illumination, for we want to be the Bride of Your Son. Teach us to walk in the Path laid out before us. Bring us to the mountain, where You reside — where the very atmosphere is soaked in Your Presence — that Righteousness surrounds us, teaching us to be the Children of God.
To take our place as sons and daughters of the Most High God — we run to you Father, even in the midst of trouble or chaos. We have read your Promises and know of Your Great Love. We will have it always before us, this Cross on which the Lamb died for our sins.
Our voices will carry the Testimony of Your Son and His Presence in our lives. We will always long and hunger for more of You. It is the taste of the Bread and the Wine, the communion with the Lord of Lords — that is closer than a brother — and is sweeter than honey.
We take our steps today in Your Light — and we invite Holy Spirit to guide us in every move, every decision — for He is God and we will have no other.
Shine Your LIght Father. . .
