BIBLE READING: 1 CHRON. 4-6
TOPIC: IF YOU DO NOT BOW
TEXT: “Then Nebuchadnezzar The King Was Astonied, And Rose Up In Haste, And Spake, And Said Unto His Counsellors, Did Not We Cast Three Men Bound Into The Midst Of The Fire? They Answered And Said Unto The King, True, O King. He Answered And Said, Lo, I See Four Men Loose, Walking In The Midst Of The Fire, And They Have No Hurt; And The Form Of The Fourth Is Like The Son Of God.” Daniel 3:24-25
Child Of God, No Matter The Situation Of Life That Rises Up Against Your Faith, If You Do Not Bow To It By Compromising Your Faith Or Succumbing To It, You Will Not Burn. Whether It Comes In The Form Of Hunger, Pain, Persecution, Delay, Lion’s Den Or Betrayal, If You Stand Firm On The Word Of God, Upholding His Counsel, You Will Come Out Victorious And Be Better Placed Than Where You Were Before That Challenge Of Life Started.
Challenges Of Life Reveal The Champion In You. They Reveal The Glory Of God Through You, Shooting You Forward On The Ladder Of Destiny. The Bigger The Challenge, The Greater The Glory. The Moment David Brought Down The Opposition Called Goliath, His Position Changed In Israel. To Have Bowed To The Philistines Is To Have Remained Their Servants Even Without Fighting (1 Sam. 17:9). What A Shame That Would Have Been To Israel!
If Mordecai Had Bowed To Haman, He Would Have Permanently Traded His Seat Of Glory Which Was In Contention By Haman. If Joseph Had Bowed To Potiphar’s Wife, His Essence Of Coming To Egypt Would Have Been Frustrated. If The Three Hebrews Boys Had Given In By Bowing Down To The Image Set Up By The King, They Would Not Have Become A Reference Point Of Glory Today.
Arise, Child Of God, Confront That Challenge In The Place Of Prayer, Armed With The Word; Refuse To Relent, It Will Bow To You.
PRAYER:
My Father! My Father! As I Begin To Pray, I Decree, My Challenges Will Bow To Me.
