STANDING FIRM IN THE FIRE

Daniel 3:8-30

These trials will show that __________________. It is being tested as _________________and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through

many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. 1 Peter 1:7 NLT 1) A FAITH THAT’S TESTED IS A FAITH THAT CAN BE TRUSTED. When you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and other musical instruments, __________ to worship King Nebuchadnezzar’s gold statue. 6 Anyone who refuses to obey will ________________________. _______________Daniel 3:5-6 NLT 2) THREE QUALITIES OF STANDING IN FAITH

FAITH OBEYS ________ INSTEAD OF FOLLOWING ________. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, _________________________before you in this matter.” Daniel 3:16 NIV

FAITH _______________ IN SPITE OF WHAT IT __________. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, ________________________________. ___________________from your power, Your Majesty. Daniel 3:17 NLT 3) FAITHFUL ____________________ IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY. THE _________________ IS GOD’S. But _______________________________, we want to make it clear to you, Your Majesty, that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up. Daniel 3:18 NLT Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished; and he rose in haste and spoke, saying to his counselors, "Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?" They answered and said to the king, "True, O king." 25 "Look!" he answered, "I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the ________________________________" Daniel 3:24-25 NKJV

They trusted in him and defied the king’s command and were ___________________ _________________rather than ______________________________________.” Daniel 3:28 NIV

TALK IT OVER You’ll find that discussing the message with a friend is a great way to let it change the way you live.

1. Have you had a bad day recently? How can something as ordinary as a bad day challenge your faith?

HOW TO BECOME A MEMBER OF GRACE BAPTIST CHURCH

First you must present yourself for membership during a worship service. Our Pastor will be at the front during the invitation to help you with your decision then you will encouraged to attend a membership 101 class. Secondly you must express your desire for membership through one of the follow-ing ways: 1) Profession of faith: If you have never made a public decision acknowledg-ing that you have or are receiving Christ as your Savior, you will be given that opportunity. After you have made a public profession of faith, your baptism will be scheduled. 2) By statement of faith: If you have previously made a public decision acknowledging that you have received Christ as your Savior, we will be happy to receive you. It will however be necessary for you to be baptized at Grace if you have never been baptized by immersion or if you were baptized in a church which holds a different view of salvation, bap-tism or eternal security than Grace. 3) By letter: If you are currently a member of another Southern Baptist Church, we will contact that church to notify them of your decision to join Grace.
