“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 Son of God.” Daniel 3:25

Another in the Fire

Have you heard the song played on K-Love by Hillsong called, “Another in the Fire”*? I love getting this song stuck in my head because all day long I’m singing, “There is another in the fire.” I looked at myself in the mirror one day as I sang those words and I could feel the truth of that lyric wash over me. There is another in the fire with me. Jesus is right beside me no matter what I’m going through. He hasn’t left me, He isn’t watching from afar. He’s right there with me, putting His arms around me when I’m sad, tapping my shoulder to calm me down, standing beside me to give me strength. Through my trials and tribulations, He is right beside me! What a good God He is that He doesn’t make me go through things alone! And He doesn’t make you go through things alone either…

…In your marriage that is struggling…there is another in the fire with you

…In your job situation that is overwhelming…there is another in the fire with you

…In your despair about your children…there is another in the fire with you

…In your resilience to stand firm in your faith…there is another in the fire with you

…In your sadness and grief…there is another in the fire with you

…In your loneliness…there is another in the fire with you

…In your pain…there is another in the fire with you

…In your confusion…there is another in the fire with you

Whatever situation you are going through right now, tell yourself, “There is another in the fire with me.” Be encouraged that you are not alone and you are not ON your own. There is another in the fire with you and He loves you so much.

Father, we thank You that You are not an absent God, but a good Father who loves and stands with His children. May we all claim this as truth today; that You are IN the fire with us! Let this truth give us strength, confidence, peace, and love as we continue on in this world. Thank You for Your love, Lord! Amen.
