Daniel 3:1-27
[1] Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits and its width six cubits. He set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.
[2] And King Nebuchadnezzar sent word to gather together the satraps, the administrators, the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
[3] So the satraps, the administrators, the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces gathered together for the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
[4] Then a herald cried aloud: “To you it is commanded, O peoples, nations, and languages,
[5] that at the time you hear the sound of the horn, flute, harp, lyre, and psaltery, in symphony with all kinds of music, you shall fall down and worship the gold image that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up;
[6] and whoever does not fall down and worship shall be cast immediately into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.”
[7] So at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the horn, flute, harp, and lyre, in symphony with all kinds of music, all the people, nations, and languages fell down and worshiped the gold image which King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
[8] Therefore at that time certain Chaldeans came forward and accused the Jews.
[9] They spoke and said to King Nebuchadnezzar, “O king, live forever!
[10] You, O king, have made a decree that everyone who hears the sound of the horn, flute, harp, lyre, and psaltery, in symphony with all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the gold image;
[11] and whoever does not fall down and worship shall be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
[12] 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 which you have set up.”
[13] Then Nebuchadnezzar, in rage and fury, gave the command to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. So they brought these men before the king.
[14] Nebuchadnezzar spoke, saying to them, “Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the gold image which I have set up?
[15] 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?”
[16] Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.
[17] 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.
[18] 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 have set up.”
[19] 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.
[20] And he commanded certain mighty men of valor who were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, and cast them into the burning fiery furnace.
[21] Then these men were bound in their coats, their trousers, their turbans, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
[22] Therefore, because the king’s command was urgent, and the furnace exceedingly hot, the flame of the fire killed those men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego.
[23] And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
[24] Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished; and he rose in haste and spoke, saying to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?” They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.”
[25] “Look!” he answered, “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.”
[26] Then Nebuchadnezzar went near the mouth of the burning fiery furnace and spoke, saying, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, servants of the Most High God, come out, and come here.” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego came from the midst of the fire.
[27] 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.

Take praise and worship songs as led by the Holy Spirit.MFM Daily Devotional Message Saturday, 4th April, 2026.
No one enjoys the experience of fire. Yet, God uses fire to demonstrate His power. With fire comes intense heat, pressure, smoke and all kinds of discomfort. Fire burns. No human being can be too familiar with fire or romance it. Fire can destroy and at the same time, it can purify. Fire brings out the beauty in precious metals like diamond, silver and gold. Fire purges. God purges and purifies humans with fire to make them well moulded. Unfortunately, none of us can dictate how God reveals Himself to us.
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego didn't bargain for the fiery furnace of king Nebuchadnezzar, but they ended up being thrown into it. Even though the fire was made seven times hotter, they chose to burn rather than bow to the idol. The intensity of the fire killed the soldiers that threw them in while the young men were divinely insured. Their bands were loosed and they stood up inside the fire, unhurt. They had a visitation in the fire. The Lord, whom they served, became the Fourth Man in the fire.
You may ask, "Why did God allow then to be thrown into the fire before appearing? Why did God allow the king to carry out his threat?" This was an open demonstration of God's sovereign power. He comes when people think it's all over. He is the God of the eleventh hour! The One who appears in seemingly hopeless situations to prove that He has been at work, watching and waiting for the right time to prove His power. Through this event, the people watching had the opportunity to acknowledge God's supremacy over the kings of the earth. Beyond that, it was His way to prove His omnipresence to these young believers. Their faith was strengthened. Their confidence in the Lord God of Israel waxed stronger. He still does the same today for those who can trust Him absolutely even in the face of persecution and harassment of the enemy.
