Nebuchadnezzar spoke, saying, ” Blessed be the God of Shadrach Meshach and Abednego, who sent His Angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and they have FRUSTATED THE KING’S WORD, and yielded their bodies, that they SHOULD NOT SERVE NOR WORSHIP ANY god EXCEPT THEIR OWN GOD!” Daniel 3:28
Then the king PROMOTED Shadrach Meshach and Abednego in the provine of Babylon..
Daniel 3:30
Lesson: Our whole being should serve and worship ONLY The One and Only True God-YHWH and His Son JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH.
Do not be afraid of any king that will force you to kneel before an image..instead be afraid of God. Be like the three ( Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego) who did not Compromise their faith. They did not wave in the face of extreme test. A courageous people. “..but the people who know their God shall be strong and carry out great exploits.”
“..O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.
If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king.But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship your gold image Which you have set up.” Daniel 3:16-18
God requires the faithfulness of His people.

The prophecy of Paul in his letter to timothy specifically said “.That in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of Godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” ( 2 TIMOTHY 3:1-5 NKJV)
These last days spoken of Paul are now here. The prophecy is coming to life. Before our very eyes it is unfolding. The spirit of darkness is spreading a strong delusion that even those who seems to be strong in their christian faith and perceived to be knowledgeable in the Word and look upon by many as “authority” because of the numbers in their congregation, and because some of these “giants” has published popular books and millions of these books were sold gaining a name for themselves are slowly, quite unnoticeable, inching into the new doctrines of darkness-ecumenical doctrines where Christianity is merged with islam which they call chrislam. They put the quran side by side with the bible in their pews.(even muslims will not give a green light to this kind of practice but look at this: so called big names in christianity are doing this unimaginable thing) Their reason for this is the words of Jesus that said “Love your neighbor” which was taken not according to biblical context. The letter of Paul to 2 corinthians 6:14-15 “Do not unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?.” The above words of Paul negates their premise.
This movement is gaining popularity because we have gone so far in pleasing the world at the expense of the Truth. A popular preacher in america having thousands in his congregation when interviewed by a popular TV host in one of the most recognized news stations in the world where millions are viewing daily did not answer straight to questions about homosexuality etc,. because we have become man pleasers, we do not want to offend people, we want people to hear only good words that are pleasing to the ears. The church has become “a nice guy next door”. Didn’t Paul mentioned of this in 2 timothy 4:1-4 ” I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing in His kingdom:PREACH THE WORD! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, BECAUSE THEY HAVE ITCHING EARS, they will heap up for themselves teachers: and they will turn their ears away from the truth..”
The deception of the evil one is gaining momentum because some in the church has endorsed it and practice it. People of God beware, more delusions are coming as we approach the end. Armed yourself with the Word of the Spirit. Fortify your position in Christ. Read the word. Remain in the truth and pray for one another specially those who are in the authority-your pastor and leaders. God bless LOTN Church.

“Do not be deceived: ‘Evil company corrupts good habits’”
1 Corinthians 15:33, NKJV.
Sometimes, in order to embrace the destiny God has in store, you have to be willing to make some changes in your life. You have to be willing to examine where you are and what you need to move forward. This may mean that you need to change some friends that you’re spending time with. Maybe they were fine for a season in your life, but now you’ve outgrown them. This is a new season, and in order for you to rise higher, you have to break away from relationships that are limiting you. You have to develop some new relationships with people who are going to pull you up and inspire you to rise higher. And this doesn’t just mean separating yourself from people who are holding you back spiritually. I’ve found that if you’re the smartest one in your group, your group is too small. Find people who are smarter than you are, people who will challenge you to stretch to the next level and become everything God’s created you to be. Remember, he who walks with the wise becomes wise. Choose your friends wisely and don’t be deceived. Choose your friends wisely so you can walk and live in the destiny God has in store for you!
