Daniel 3-4

The moral of this story: God is able to humble those who walk in pride (4:37).

The Fiery Furnace. This story has become so well known that it has become a cultural reference point to going through trials ("being tried by the fire"). Take the preconceived notions you've had away and read these chapters with fresh eyes and perspective.

Remember that the king that is building this gargantuan statue to be worshipped is the very one who in the last chapter was giving praise to the one, true God. How quickly we forget! When will you acknowledge that the Most High is ruler over the kingdom of men?
