—Daniel 3:1-7
by: Linda Harris.
Right before he built the statue, Nebuchadnezzar acknowledged Daniel’s God as the “God of gods and the Lord of kings and a revealer of mysteries” (Daniel 2:47, NIV). Yet Nebuchadnezzar set up his image for worship. His tribute to God was shallow and fleeting. He still viewed himself as master of his own life and built a sculpture to prove it.
People can pray the “sinner’s prayer” and call themselves Christians and yet be far from God. Being a Christian involves more than making a profession with your mouth; your words must become a profession, a way of life. Have you made the profession and are you living it?
