The document discusses God's protection over his children as illustrated in Daniel 3. It describes how the young Hebrews had strong faith that God would protect them despite what the King was saying and how they refused to worship the golden statue. It notes that as Christians, we should take a stand for our beliefs and live differently than others, and that while there will be problems, God is able to handle them if we give our problems to him. It concludes that God watches over his children and wants us to persevere through trials, as he rescued the Hebrews from the fiery furnace.

1. God’s Protection Over His Children

 Matthew 7:20 “He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if
you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move
from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
