Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

Day 1 –  THE STORY

Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were Daniel’s friends who wouldn’t eat the bad food. They were also told to bow down to the image of the king from Babylon. These guys knew God’s Word and knew that God is the only God. They also knew that God had commanded them not to bow down to anything else but Him. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego didn’t want to bow down to the image because they believed God to be the real thing! Look at what happened when they didn’t bow down.

Did Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego believe that God could save them?

Do you believe that God can save you?

Day 3 – THE SOURCE

God’s plan is always to save His people. In the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, God showed us that He has the power to save anyone in any situation. Jesus died on the cross so that you wouldn’t have to pay the price for your sin. He did it for you. All you have to do is believe… just like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego did.

Read Romans 6:23 and Romans 10:9

Do you believe that God loves you so much that He died for your sin? Do you believe He can save you no matter what you have done? If you haven’t told Him you believe, tell Him now!

MEMORIZE IT.

This week memorize 2 Peter 3:9

Day 4 – THE MOTIVE

God has a big heart and He does not want anyone to pay the price for their sin.

He wants everyone to believe in Him. He will save anyone who believes in Him.

Read 2 Peter 3:9 and memorize.

Does God want people to perish?

Day 5 – CAUGHT IN THE ACT

Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego showed everyone in Babylon that God can save them. You don’t have to go into a blazing furnace to show people that Jesus saved them. All you have to do is tell someone about Jesus. Is there someone that you can tell about Jesus this week?
