Who Is Your God?
by Jerome Stewart 
Daniel chapter 3; Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego violated a decree given by King Nebuchanezzar to fall down and worship a golden image. Vs. 12 says; “There are certain Jews whom you have set over the affairs of the province of Babylon: Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego; these men O king, have not paid due regard to you. They do not serve your gods or worship the gold image you have set up.” They disrespected a King! Vss. 13 thru 15 says; Then Nebuchanezzar, in a rage and fury, gave the command to bring Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego. So they brought these men before the king. Nebuchanezzar spoke, saying to them, “Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden image I have set up? Now if you are ready at the time you hear the sound of the horn, flute, harp, lyre, and psaltery, in symphony with all kinds of music, and you fall down and worship the image which I have made good! But if you do not worship, you shall be cast immediately into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. And who is the god who will deliver you from my hands?”
Vss. 16 thru 18 says; Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the king, “O Nebuchanezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand O king. But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you set up.” Nebuchadnezzar did not understand that they trusted in the living God! Vs. 19 says; Then Nebuchadnezzar was full of fury, and the expression on his face changed toward Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. “He spoke and commanded that they heat the furnace seven times more than it was usually heated.” They were thrown into the furnace! Vs. 23 says; the flame of the fire killed the men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. King Nebuchadnezzar looked into the furnace and said; “I see four men loose walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.” So the question is this— Who is your God?
