Who is putting out your fires?

So I have been studying the book of Daniel, and I think it would make an extremely excellent movie! I am just totally into the story and it has been really useful for me and some self evaluation.So here is a quick, very vague synopsis of Chapters 1-3, it doesn't even give the story the life and intrigue that the story actually has..so READ Daniel, it's short and a great story and if you want to converse about it I am ready anytime:)So far it is about Faith testing; at least that is how I am reading into it right now. Their faith is tested by God in each chapter and in each chapter you can see how God stays faithful. In chapter 1 they are given choice meat and wine to drink but they eat veggies and H20 because God has told them how they should eat. And they end up being the healthiest, best of the best and the King favors them.Next in Chapter 2 God tells them the dream King Neb has had and interprets it to them, so they can be saved from being cut into pieces.Now here is what today's blog is about,They (not Daniel but the 3 others) will not bow down to a statue King Neb has made and they say God will save them and even if they are not saved they say they choose God. They are bound and cast into the fire(the fire is so hot it kills the guys that toss them into the furnace) and yet they come out unscathed, not smelling of smoke not singed NOTHING! The only thing that has burned is there bindings. God delivered them from the fire.SO, Fiery trials (this is from the Beth Moore Study Daniel BTW) 3 things can happen from them:
You can be delivered from it and faith is built(everyone onlooker that day must have been awestruck and saw the power of God and I am sure many of them had faith in God at that moment, just reading I got goose bumps)
You can be delivered through it and Faith is refined.
You can be delivered into Gods arms and Faith is perfectedI liked her cancer example..so you can find a lump and pray and when you go into get it checked out, it could be gone or nothing at all(1st case scenerio), you could be diagnosed with cancer and survive and be cancer free..GLORY to GOD for his healing(2nd senerio) OR you could died from the cancer and be in heaven.So God has really opened my eyes to something...they are all winning scenarios.
But it's letting go and letting God. Giving him control that we can see these things. I have been reflecting on fiery trials since yesterday, I have a difficult time because I think I have had an easy life compared to most but I have had some and I am going to share because maybe someone can relate...1st fiery trial, I can think of is my mom having cancer, everything happened to quickly and she was having surgery the next day and then 2 weeks later she is recovering and my father is killed in a freak accident. In this case our faith was built, in fact my mom clung to the Lord and by example so did I. I had always believed in God but never relied on him until that moment, it was later that year that I can remember surrendering to Christ and asking him into my heart more sincerely then I ever had previously.
2nd one I am going to share is the house in SD. We built this big beautiful house in the BH and it became our God. We quit attending church so we could work on the house, we didn't have time to read his word because we had to get the house finished, we got wrapped up in materialism and the ways of the world and forgot all we know to be good and true and FAITHFUL! In the end we began to pray for deliverance and he began to deliver us through it within 3 months of when we began to pray and allow him to be in control again. It took 14 months of us being more faithful then we had been before we were finally delivered completely through it. This is how we ended up in Texas.
3rd one is happening now. I am struggling with depression and just getting through with life, but this time I know that God will deliver me in someway and I am staying faithful this time. I do not need anything but him to speak and me to surrender which is still a daily struggle. As I am listening I hear him clearly and sometimes I chose not to obey and it results badly but when I listen and obey only goodness.
So what are your fiery trials and most importantly who is putting out your fire? Since I have lived in Texas and been more faithful I feel like God has perfected my vision I see things more clearly, though Satan loves to lie and try to tell me other things, I chose to ignore and not play into his lies.
Just today he tried to get me to call a friend and tell her I was sick of putting up with her and her not being my friend, but that isn't the case at all. She is doing all she can do to survive right now and she needs me more than I need her. God tells me call her, make the effort let her know you care and are praying for her.Glory to God for Andrew is healing and I wasn't going to take him into the Doctor after I spoke to the nurse on Friday but I could feelGod pushing me to take him on Saturday, so I did and it wasn't at all what they had thought over the phone and he was given some medicine that helped him so much and he is doing better each day.

Please pray for my cousin Sarah as she is having some serious complications with her pregnancy. I am praying for her deliverance through this, please join me. God hears you! Please do email me your trials, I really do want to hear....
