  Speaker 1: It's your early morning praise party. I am Sherry Mackie,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: and it's time right now for today's word. Breaking Free
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: in the Fire Daniels three twenty seven says. They saw
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: that the fire had not harmed their bodies, nor was
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: a hair of their heads singe. Their roles were not scorched,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: and there was no smell of fire on them. And
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Daniel three. Three Hebrew teenagers, Shad dried Mishek and a Betnago,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: stood before King Nebukan Nazure with unshakable faith. When commanded
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: to bow before the golden idol, they refused, declaring that
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: they would worship only the living God. The king's anger
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: burned hotter than the furnace. He ordered them to be
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: thrown into bound hands and foot. They were cast into
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: flames that were seven times hotter than normal. But here's
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: the miracle. When the king looked inside, he didn't see
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: three men bound. He saw four men walking freely in
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: the fire. The ropes had been burned off, but not
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: a hair on their heads was singed. Not even the
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: smell of smoke was on them. The very fire meant
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: to destroy them became the fire that freed them. What
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: was intended to stop them, only separated them from their limitations.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: They came out not weaker, but stronger. They came out
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: full of faith. They came out with greater confidence. They
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: came out with undeniable influence. See this is a picture
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: of how God works in our lives. Sometimes He allows
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: us to walk through fiery seasons, not to punish us,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: but to purify us. The fire of trials can burn
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: away fear, in security, doubt, or unhealthy attachments. The furnace
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: may feel unbearable, but it's often the very place where
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: God sets you free from what's been holding you back.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Maybe today you're facing the fire disappointment of loss, a betrayal.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: It may look like the end, but God is saying
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: this fire will not destroy you. It will deliver you
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: what the enemy meant for harm. God will use it
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: to lift you higher. You're coming out with greater strength,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: greater faith, greater clarity about who God is and who
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: you are in Him. And just like those three young men,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: you're not coming out smelling like smoke. You're coming out better.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Come own. Jesus Father, thank you for being with us
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: in the fire. Thank you that the flames of adversity
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: do not consume us, but it refines us. We choose
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: to trust that every challenge is burning off what we
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: don't need and preparing us for new levels of strength,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: new levels of influence, and new levels of destiny. God,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: we believe we're coming out better. We believe we're coming
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: out with greater faith and confidence in You and Jesus' name. Hey,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: now that's your word for today. Take it applied to
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: your everyday life, and you continue to be encouraged and inspired.
