The Three Hebrew Men

The Three Hebrew Men

 

 

 

There were three Hebrew men with one desire.

They served the true God!  And were cast into the fire!

 

King Nebuchadnezzar ordered them to bow to a false idol.

But they made up their minds

 to serve the God of the Bible!

 

He ordered them thrown into the furnace so hot!

But there was a lesson here, that was to be taught!

 

As he looked in…  He couldn’t believe

what he saw!

He had seen the living son of God, after all!

 

At this sight, his words broke and his body trembled!

The Hebrews were unharmed!

No matter how hot the fire was kindled!

 

He called them out, yelling for them one by one.

He knew they had a visit from God’s holy son!

 

He looked!  And their bodies weren’t even burned!

They trusted their God! And had no reason for concern!

 

This same God who rescued the three Hebrew men…

Is the same God who can rescue you from sin!

 

Though the “fires of life, may be “hot and burning.”

It’s in the direction of God…

That you need to be turning!

 

The living son of God would like to visit you today!

Won’t you listen to the words of life, he has to say?

 

He is the true God!  The king of kings is he!

And invites you to be with him!  For all eternity!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
