—Daniel 3:1-7
by: Tiffany Anne Crowder.
Nebuchadnezzar consolidated his political and religious authority over his subjects by building a 90-foot-tall idol and commanding its worship. Furthermore, anyone who did not fall down in praise to the idol would face death. God calls for our commitment to truth above nationalism and false religion and even goes as far as to say they are our enemies. We may not have to choose between life or death in our faith, but we are called to integrity in all situations, even if we think it would be “harmless” to stay silent. With God’s armor and authority, we can stand against all adversity.
