Class Name: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

LESSON:

1. The teacher begins with greeting our “young heroes”.2. Teacher reviews other young heroes of the bible with the stu-dents. Example: Daniel and Samuel 3. Next introduce the 3 Hebrew children that were friends of Daniel. (Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego)4. Use the flannel graph to dramatize the story for the children.5. While using the flannel graph, read the Bible scripture that coordinates with each scene. o Scene 1: Daniel 3:1-7 o Scene 2: Daniel 3:8-23 and Daniel 3:16-19 o Scene 3: Daniel 3:20-28 and Daniel 3:24-256. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were heroes because they took God at His Word!7. Play quote from 64-0207 “And there was a fourth Man standing in there, with a key that unlocked the heat from the fire, and it could not do nothing but set them free. Amen.”8. All of you are heroes because the God that we worship & live for today, is the SAME God that was with Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, Samuel, Daniel, & Bro. Branham.

Quote:39 Now as we check some of these seeds, let’s think. We think of the He-brew children, I have here, thinking of that, on the Hebrew children, after they had been tested against image worship. Now, you remember, the king said, “Whosoever will not bow down to this image, shall be throwed into the fiery furnace.” Now, these children believed that God’s Word was right, that they should not worship any kind of an image, but when they come to the showdown and they were tested whether they would.

40 When, all the rest of the children down there received and went to the worship, they went right on in the way the king said. They went with the popular thought of the day, that they must do it.

41 And when they were tested, whether they would worship images and break the Word of God, they stayed true to the Word. Regardless of the circumstances, they stayed true to the Word. And when they throwed them into the fiery furnace, God’s promise was fulfilled. They possessed the gates of their enemy. And there was a fourth Man standing in there, with a key that unlocked the heat from the fire, and it could not do noth-ing but set them free. Amen.

Scriptures16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchad-nezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.17 Ifitbeso,ourGodwhomweserveisabletodeliverusfromtheburningfieryfurnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.19 Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

Daniel 3:16-19 24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?Theyansweredandsaiduntotheking,True,Oking.25 Heansweredandsaid,Lo,Iseefourmenloose,walkinginthemidstofthefire,and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.
