Morning Word from Pastor Peter Sunagawa
They were accused of refusing to worship idols, and the three were summoned before the king for questioning.
The king said to them, "If you now...bow down and worship the idols I have made, that is fine."
This reveals why the three men...🤔❓️
...refused to worship idols, even at the risk of their lives.
...Their answer was
"Even if that's not the case,"
...unconditional trust in God❗️.
That is truly a declaration of victory for believers.
...Even though we believe in God, our journey isn't always blessed😅
...There are many cases where things don't go as we prayed😓
...At that time...we encounter the devil's temptation😱.
"There is no God...you are being deceived😤"
...and he pressures us to abandon our faith❗️.
Verse 18 is a complete declaration of victory over worldly power and temptation.
...Even if things don't go as I wished, when you walk in trust in God, you will have overcome the devil. ✌️😃
Shalom.
