Daniel 3:8-30 – As Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego remained faithful to God, ready to face death, they were cast in the fiery furnace, only to go unharmed, while a mysterious fourth person (Jesus?) appeared with them. King Nebuchadnezzar acknowledges that their God is the only one who can rescue them like that. As Jesus heads into Jerusalem, He’s heading into the “fire” if you will, as He knows what lies ahead for him in the next week: death. As He faces that, we know Jesus will not go unharmed, but He is the only one who can rescue us because He is not just a man, but He is the same God who rescued Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
