Hey guys, kinda related to what we talked about on Sunday, about standing strong for what we believe in. I was reading Daniel this morning and when Nebuchadnezzar asked Daniel and his buddies ,
"what god is there who can deliver you out of my hands?"
Daniel and friends reply,
"O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to give you an answer concerning this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire; and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king. But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we are not going to serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up"
Daniel 3:16-18
Shadrach, Meshach, Abed-nego, and Daniel are perfect examples of people who weren't afraid to stand up for what they believe in. Multiple times in the book, they stood up for God under the threat of death,
like a boss.
Well I hope you guys find this encouraging, or at least interesting.

like a BOSS indeed! They were so confident in God. Good reminder that we have no excuse to be afraid of what other people will think of us if we stand up for Him..
