WHO??? WHAT?!? WOW!!!!!!!!
Happy Blessed Wednesday Family,
For today's Mona Girl Blog, Holy Spirit has me sharing with YOU one of my Fave MIRACLES in the Bible, which you can read in its entirety here: Four Men in the Furnace!
It's an Off the Hook Testimony of FAITH, COURAGE, TRUST, LOYALTY and LOVE!! Whewee! Me so excited to SHARE with you today! Here we go......... Thanks Holy Spirit!!
**WHO???**
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego (Yeah, that's a mouth full...just rolls right off your tongue - LOL!), were three Hebrew Men back in the Old Testament Book of Daniel who LOVED and I mean LOVED and WORSHIPED their Lord...even until death. Back in their day, there was a King....King Nebuchadnezzar, who was ALL about himself. He was the King, he was the Man, he was the Bomb! And because of King Nebuchadnezzar's over appreciation for himself, he built a HUGE gold statue and ordered all the important folks in Babylon to attend the dedication ceremony. At the ceremony, the leaders were informed that whenever the Band played, you were to fall to your knees and worship King Nebuchadnezzar's gold statue. And the down side to that mandatory request was that anyone who did not kneel and worship would be thrown into a roaring furnace. (See Daniel 3:1-7, MSG) Geez! Harsh punishment for not stroking the King's ego, don't you think?
**WHAT?!?**
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who were three of the King's leaders in Babylon, did NOT buy into King Nebuchadnezzar's self-aggrandising tactic. When they chose NOT to kneel in worship of the gold statue when the Band played, they were called out for their disobedience. In fact, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were called out in such a public way that they insulted and angered King Nebie (Mona Nick-name) but he gave them a second chance. Oh Yeah!! Here's where it gets interesting.......the Hebrew Mighty Men were not afraid of King Nebie or his threats of death by the roaring furnace. They stood FIRM and UNMOVABLE in their Faith in God....their Almighty Sovereign Lord.....and, as a result, spoke some of the most Powerful Words in the Bible: "Your threats mean nothing to us. If you throw us in the fire, the God we serve can rescue us from your roaring furnace and anything else you might cook up, O king. But even if he doesn't, it wouldn't make a bit of difference, O king. We still wouldn't serve your gods or worship the gold statue you set up." (Daniel 3:16-18, MSG - LOVE, LOVE the underlined portion of this Scripture!!!!) Family, Y'all notice how the Message version used the lower-case "k" when the Hebrew Men referred to King Nebie?!? Just adding fuel to the fire (pun intended).
Soooooo, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego disobeyed/disrespected him publicly and THEN when he gave them a 2nd chance, they dissed him even further with their strong reply and allegiance to God!!! Oh Yeah! King Nebie was DONE!!! As a result, he ordered the furnace fired up 7 times hotter.....7 TIMES HOTTER THAN USUAL.....ordered his strong army men to bind up Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in every way possible and throw them into the roaring furnace. (See Daniel 3:8-23, MSG).
**WOW!!!!!!!!!!**
Now for those of Us who've been doing this Faith Walk thing for a while....or even if You just gave Your Life to Christ.......WE Know Our Abba Father DOES NOT LIKE UGLINESS.....especially when it's directed towards HIS Anointed, HIS Children, HIS Loyal Sons and Daughters. After all, it's part of Our Heavenly Father's Covenant Promise to US that He will ALWAYS look out for US because we are His. Thank You Jesus! Now, here's where it gets really interesting..........here's how the MIRACLE played out.........
After the Three Hebrew Men were thrown into the ferocious fiiery furnace, which by the way burned up the strong army of men who were obeying King Nebuchadnezzar's orders,.....(Hmmmmm, beware who you chose to follow/obey....you could get Burned, literally!!), King Nebie was shocked to see FOUR Men walking around FREELY in the Fire!!! Remember they were completely bound hand and foot!! And it even further AMAZED King Nebie that the FOURTH MAN looked like JESUS!! Oh YEAH! Like the seasoned Saints at my church in Harlem say: "Our God is an ON Time God......He may not always show up when we want Him to but HE's Always On Time."
But Ohhhhhhh Loves, because JESUS was in the Fire with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, when King Nebie called them out of the furnace,.......the Fire had not touched the three Mighty Men of God...the Fire had not singed ONE hair on their heads......the Fire had not scorched their clothing......they DID NOT EVEN HAVE THE SMELL OF FIRE/SMOKE ON THEM! So King Nebuchadnezzar, because of his arrogance and wrong choice in his godly worship, secured himself a front row seat to witness One of the Bible's Most Powerful MIRACLES!! Whewee!! All King Nebie could say after witnessing such an Awesome Sight was: ".......There has never been a god who can pull off a rescue like this." (Daniel 3:29, MSG) AND to put the icing on the cake with a cherry on top........Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were promoted by the True King!! (See Daniel 3:24-30, MSG).
Oh YES! Family! When We STAND FIRMLY ON OUR FAITH, when We do NOT waver, when We are NOT swayed/manipulated/bullied by the world, when We are Loyal, Trusting and Courageous, when We are NOT afraid of what we are facing, when we Believe in Our Lord no matter what, when We Walk by Faith and Not by Sight, when We really...REALLY Love & Worship Our Heavenly Father........HE'S GOT OUR BACKS no matter the firey trials, challenges and stuff life brings!! Oh Yeah! Take it from my boyz, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, when You Love, Honor and Respect Our Sovereign Lord -
Get Ready for Miracles.........Get Ready for Promotions!!
"And the satraps, administrators, governors, and the king's counselors gathered together, and they saw these men on whose bodies the fire had no power; the hair of their head was not singed nor were their garments affected, and the smell of fire was not on them." (Daniel 3:27, NKJV)
