Scripture reference: Psalm 34:17 (ESV)
Transcription:
Today I want you to know that God will bring you out smelling like a rose.
This was surely the case for Shadrach, Meschach, and Abednego who were thrown into the fiery furnace for refusing to worship the king’s gold image.
God not only delivered them, but their clothes were not burned, their hair was not singed, and they didn’t even smell of smoke.
God may allow you to go through the fire, but if you remain faithful, He will bring you out—even smelling like a rose.
Recently I ran into a woman who I knew had been enduring some challenging times. When I saw her, I could see the toll her situation had taken on her. In other words, she had been through the fire—and it looked like it.
In times of distress, let us turn to the one who will bring us out unharmed and even smelling like a rose. As you think about that, remember these words:
“When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.” Psalm 34:17 (ESV)
This has been your B Moment. Your moment to be still…to be fed by the Word of God…to be grateful.
