The story of the three Hebrews boys in the third chapter of the book of Daniel is one of the most inspiring stories in the Bible. The government of the day promulgated a decree that everybody must bow to a golden idol set up by the king. But Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego refused to bow because they believed in the only true God. King Nebuchabnezzar became enraged and ordered them to be killed in a burning furnace, but these guys were unperturbed.
The king was infuriated by their defiance, but Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego didn't cry or beg for their lives; they weren't afraid. They said, "O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not worried about what will happen to us. If we thrown into the flaming furnace, our God is able to deliver us; and he will deliver us out of your hand, Your Majesty. But if he doesn't, please understand, sir, that even then we will never under any circumstance serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have created " ( Daniel 3:16-18 TBL).
They didn't talk like victims. Their situation didn't alter their trust in the unfailing power of Almighty God to deliver. The young men in the face of adversity epitomized what the Christian attitude should be. There is an attitude for living that every Christian should cultivate, and that's the attitude of a victor. You can never be disadvantaged. Always remember that that : irrespective of the circumstance, you can never be disadvantaged.
