Today's Scripture
Daniel 3:28, NIV
Then Nebuchadnezzar said, "Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who has sent his angel and rescued his servants!"
Today's Word
In Daniel 3, when three Hebrew teenagers wouldn't bow to King Nebuchadnezzar's golden idol, they were thrown into a fiery furnace. They should have perished instantly, but they were miraculously spared. After the teenagers came out unharmed, King Nebuchadnezzar, who had been against them and everything they stood for, was giving God praise. Why? God displayed awesome power through those teenagers so other people would be changed.
That's what God is going to do for you. You can try to convince some people about your faith, debate with them, but words don't always affect people. He's going to open doors you can't open, thrust you to new levels, and cause you to overcome what looks impossible so they will know the Lord is on your side. God is not going to do this all in private. He's going to give you a public sign, something so amazing that people notice. As with Nebuchadnezzar, they will want what you have. Every morning, get up and say, "God, display Your awesome power through me today."
