This study we are in Dan. ch.3.
When we look back at ch.2 we see that God gave mercies and revealed the king's dream. We see that the king recognized Daniel's God. He thought the dream was from another source and that Dan's God was the interpreter. We see that God gave the dream. When a leader hears about miracles from God, he can at times forget them. America has on the news a regular announcement of what people call miracles, some hearts are not moved. Some say they even believe them but like a sermon they are soon forgotten.
The whole world should know by now about the miracle in Mt. Ararat region. That Ron Wyatt has found the original ark. The miracle was that Ron was having a hard time getting to the ark as it is buried under hard deep dirt. All of a sudden a earthquake came and fixed the problem so they could get in and do their archeology.
We now see that in Dan. 3, a very puzzle picture. First Daniel must not have been there because he wouldn't bow either. Then we see only 3 people out of all the rest, including the Jews, not bowing.
only 3 go into the fire. Notice they will be like burning bushes. The fire will not touch them. Yet before they went in they said they will obey Moses law. They won't bow down.
Getting into today thinking. They don't give a $100.00 to get a $100.00 to be delivered It is called salvation) prosperity is also called salvation. All salvation is a free gift. 3Jn.1:2 prosper and good health are a free promise. give to get is paying for something that is already yours by faith.
God has promised to heal us for free. Isa. 53:5 by his wounds we were healed. In Matt. 8:17 we see that Isa. 53 was saying , bare our sicknesses
The 3 men were given the choice to bow to their gods or go in the furnace. Also the promise of the furnace being turned up hotter.
We see here the same in our time. If you won't submit to our insurance plans, which are really gods of fear, we will turn up the penalty of increasing the fine each year. $95.00 first year and $295.00 the next year. The bible tells us that we must trust God for our health and not medical science. We honor all authority unless we are asked to disobey God.
I am concerned (like) Daniel or the 3 men. For all the people were Jews who also bowed and only 3 men were obedient to God's word. Now it is not Jews but Christians who must decide what tom do.
Gal. 2:20 We are crucified with Christ, that he may live in us and take care of us.
What is wonderful is in Genesis 15: when God made covenant with Abraham, it was a furnace and a lamp that passed between the pieces. The offerings, including the lamb were laid out. God cut a covenant. Our covenant God Yahweh Rophe I am the Lord that healeth thee. Ex. 15:26
The covenant God passes between the sacrifices by appearance of a furnace and a lamp (fire).
Certainly Jesus the Lamb of God and the blood of the everlasting covenant Heb. 13:20 will bring us healing.
The king of Babylon was amazed and just like when Daniel told the dream he could see God's Spirit was in the 3 men also. All four men honored the king even after the ill treatment.
