WHAT SHOULD I DO WHEN THE HEAT’S ON

By Pastor Greg Rodermond, September 17, 2023

WHAT SHOULD I DO WHEN THE HEAT'S ON?

  1. DON'T YOURSELF. "Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you.” Daniel 3:16 (NLT)
  2. , GOD HAS THE POWER TO SAVE YOU. “If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve is able to save us.” Daniel 3:17a (NLT)
  3. GOD WILL SAVE YOU. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve is able to save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty." Daniel 3:17 (NLT)
  4. YOUR LOYALTY TO GOD NO MATTER WHAT. ‘If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve is able to save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty. 18 But even if he doesn't, we want to make it clear to you, Your Majesty, that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up.’ Daniel 3:17-18 (NLT)

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I TRUST GOD IN THE FIRE WHEN THE HEAT'S ON.

  1. GOD WILL THROUGH THE FIRE WITH YOU. But suddenly, Nebuchadnezzar jumped up in amazement and exclaimed to his advisers, “Didn't we tie up three men and throw them into the furnace?” "Yes, Your Majesty, we certainly did," they replied. “Look'” Nebuchadnezzar shouted. "see four men, unbound, walking around in the fire unharmed! And the fourth looks like a god!" Daniel 3:24-25 (NLT)
  2. GOD WILL OFF EVERYTHING TYING YOU DOWN. “Look!” Nebuchadnezzar shouted. "I see four men, unbound, walking around in the fire unharmed! And the fourth looks like a god!" Daniel 3:25 (NLT) “I have refined you, but not as silver is refined. Rather, I have refined you in the furnace of suffering.” Isaiah 48:10 (NLT)
  3. GOD WILL YOU A NEW FREEDOM. “But look!” he said. "I see four men, walking around freely in the fire, completely unharmed! And the fourth man looks like a son of the gods!" Daniel 3:25 (MSG)
  4. GOD WILL YOU OUT UNHARMED. "Then Nebuchadnezzar came as close as he could to the door of the flaming furnace and shouted: “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out! Come here!” So Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego stepped out of the fire. Then the high officers, officials, governors, and advisers crowded around them and saw that the fire had not touched them. Not a hair on their heads was singed, and their clothing was not scorched. They didn't even smell of smoke!" Daniel 3:26-27 (NLT)
  5. GOD WILL THE GLORY. "Then Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise to the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego! He sent his angel to rescue his servants who trusted in him. They defied the king's command and were willing to die rather than serve or worship any god except their own God. Therefore, I make this decree: If any people, whatever their race or nation or language, speak a word against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, they will be torn limb from limb, and their houses will be turned into heaps of rubble. There is no other god who can rescue like this!” Daniel 3:28-29 (NLT)
