The three Hebrew boys stood up to Nebuchadnezzar and boldly said that God is capable of delivering them, but even if he didn't they still wouldn't bow.

Will you stand even if God lets you go through the trial? Will you continue if the promised "prosperity" taught in many modern churches is not God's will? Will you continue to fight on even if God allows you to suffer, even die, for His Name's sake?

Those three boys stood to the king and they stood in the fiery furnace, but they were not alone. They were, however, willing to go to that same fiery furnace even if He didn't deliver them from it.

Our mission is the same. To stand in the face of opposition, adversity, and even persecution knowing that God is able to deliver us, even if He doesn't.
