Daniel 3:16-18 16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. 17 If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king. 18 But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up.
Lord God, You are the One and Only True and Living God; Creator of heaven and earth. Everything made was made by You. Your existence is eternal, with no beginning and no end. Gracious God, thank You for being a trustworthy God, who maintains our well-being and guarantees the security of our souls through time and eternity. Lord, there is none like You; in all creation and beyond - there is none like You. Glory!
Gracious God, You are our constant companion and our eternal friend. Wherever we go, You are there; promising never to leave nor forsake us. You may assign doctors as Your instruments for healing, but You never discharge us to their care alone. You are always the doctor in charge of our medical needs; the attorney in our courtrooms; teacher in our classrooms; and best friend as we negotiate the dark pathways of life. You are our all and all.
Holy God, we benefit most from Your presence when we choose to obey You. Then we are strengthened and sustained according to Your perfect will. We can walk confidently through the storms; confront our fears during our midnight hours; and maintain hope in the Resurrected Savior “even if” things turn out differently than we hope. Master, You alone have the words of truth, power to save and authority to rule all of creation. In the middle of the uncertainties of life, we find rest and peace in You. Thank You Lord - You are our All in All. In Jesus Name we pray and give thanks. Amen.
