In the Midst of the Fire

In the Midst of the Fire

Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 10:32.
A confession of Christ means something more than bearing testimony in social [prayer] meeting.
We have a different confession to make from that which we have made; and we shall have to make it under different circumstances. The three Hebrews were called upon to confess Christ in the face of the burning fiery furnace. They had been commanded by the king to fall down and worship the golden image which he had set up, and threatened that if they would not, they should be cast alive into the fiery furnace, but they answered, "We are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up." Daniel 3:16-18. It cost them something to confess Christ, for their lives were at stake.
Then the king commanded that the furnace be heated seven times hotter than it was wont to be heated, and the faithful children of God were cast into the furnace. "Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king. He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God." Verses 24, 25.... Then Nebuchadnezzar called forth the servants of God, and they had not so much as the smell of fire upon them. If you are called to go through the fiery furnace for Christ’s sake, Jesus will be at your side. "When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee." Isaiah 43:2.

The Lighthouse

The Lighthouse There's a Lighthouse on the hillside And it over looks life's sea When I'm tossed don't you know, It sends out a light A light that I might see And the light that shines in darkness now Will someday safely lead me home I know If it wasn't for that old Lighthouse I know my ship would sail no more Everybody that lives around us Well they all say, tear it down They say the big ship why they don't sail by this way anymore It just aint no use to it standing around Then my mind goes way out back to that stormy night Just in time I saw the light Don't you know it was the light, that old Lighthouse It still stands there on the hill And I thank God for the Lighthouse I owe my life to Him For Jesus is the Lighthouse And from the rocks of sin He has shown His light around me That I could clearly see If it wasn't for the Lighthouse (tell me) Where would this ship be?
