“He's been my fourth man in the fire, time after time”.
I played a new (to me) song in a worship team I'm a part of this weekend and that lyric grabbed me…
When the three men were thrown in the furnace for following God, God did not immediately bring them out, but instead was present with them in the fire. Whether your hand is on a candle, you're standing in a burning building, or maybe you're fine and know someone else in the fire, remember God's presence and share it with those around you. He's taken care of our eternity, and He's with us till we get there..
Blessed Assurance, Jesus is mine
He's been my fourth man in the fire, time after time
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood
And what He did for me on Calvary is more than enough.

Read Daniel 3 for the whole event.
Daniel 3:24-25 NIV
[24] Then King Nebuchadnezzar leaped to his feet in amazement and asked his advisers, “Weren’t there three men that we tied up and threw into the fire?” They replied, “Certainly, Your Majesty.” [25] He said, “Look! I see four men walking around in the fire, unbound and unharmed, and the fourth looks like a son of the gods.”
Isaiah 41:10 NIV
[10] So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Psalms 73:21-26 NIV
[21] When my heart was grieved and my spirit embittered, [22] I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you. [23] Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. [24] You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. [25] Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. [26] My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
