Daniel 3 · Grade 2
Our God Is Able
Read the Story
King Nebuchadnezzar made a big gold statue. He told all the people to bow down to it when the music played. Everyone bowed down, but Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego did not. They worshiped only God.
The king was angry. He said they would be put in a very hot fire. The three friends said that their God was able to save them. They still would not bow. They were put into the fire. Then the king looked and saw four men walking in the fire! The friends came out safe. The fire did not even make them smell like smoke.
