Daniel 3:1-12
King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold and proclaimed "This is what you are commanded to do, as soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither,lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the image of gold." If don't will be thrown into a blazing furnace. He declared it in the dedication of the image.
At that time some astrologers came forward and denounced the Jews, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, said to king they neither serve the gods nor worship the image of gold the king has setup.
Why?
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were administrators over province of Babylon, so these astrologers saw they didn't worshiped the image of God. They my dislike those Jews administer them without serve their gods.
Daniel is remained at the royal court, these men feared to accuse Daniel.
This is a religious and faith issue to Babylonians and Jews. One more opportunity to show the power of the Lord and His Holy.
How?
What command are we obey is the faith in our heart, it might devote our life or all of our property. My life is belong to the Lord, so there is nothing can over the Lord. When I face the choice of the truth and false, I believe I will choose the truth. The mercy of the Lord has to much came upon me, I know He is the Lord.
