What does this show me about God?
- The king sees a fourth figure walking in the fire. What does that tell you about where God is when things are bad?
What does it show me about people — and about me?
- They say God can rescue them — "but even if he does not," they still will not bow. What kind of trust is that?
What will I obey this week?
- What is one thing you will do right this week even if it costs you something?
Who will I tell?
- Who is standing alone on something? Could you stand with them?
Grow
Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
Pray
God, three friends said they would obey you whether you rescued them or not. Thank you that you were in the fire with them. Help me trust you even when I do not know how it ends.
