āIām still standingā Day 2
We had another eventful W.O.O.T. Group Zoom call this past Tuesday! Big thanks to all who joined! Who's ready for Day 2?! Focus Scripture: Daniel 3:17ā18 (NIV) āIf we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it⦠But even if he does not, we want you to know⦠we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.ā Dear Resilient Sister, Today is not for the faint of heart. This is the kind of day where heaven watches closelyābecause today, we choose to stand even when we donāt know what the outcome will be. Welcome to Day 2 of the āThough He Slay Me, Yet Will I Trust Himā Challenge. We are walking with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego todayāthree men who stared down the furnace and stood flat-footed in faith. They didnāt flinch. They didnāt fold. They didnāt negotiate with fear. They stood. Because their faith wasnāt tied to the outcome. Their faith was tied to who God is. Thatās todayās challenge for us. To cultivate the kind of fireproof faith that says, āI know my God is able⦠but even if He doesnāt, I will not bow.ā What to Expect for this Challenge: Weāre pressing into what it means to develop unshakable faith Weāre confronting the lies and fears that try to make us back down Weāre learning how to stand even when we donāt know how it will end And weāre writing our own declaration of bold, unflinching trust in God Today is your moment to say: āEven if it doesnāt go how I hoped, I still trust Him.ā Let those words settle into your bones. Speak them out loud. Let the fire hear your faith. Under the "Course" tab above, you will find your Day 2 Reflection Worksheet. Use it to reflect, to go deeper, and to declare your stand. Start with the trial. End with the truth. This is your faith in action. Sis, you werenāt made to break in the fire. You were made to rise in it. And today, you riseāwith a faith that will not flinch. Let this be the day you draw a line in the sand. You will not bow. You will not back up.
