Sunday 4th October 2026.
This week, our Bible story was about 'Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and the Fiery Furnace'! Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were three friends who were living in Babylon, far away from their home in Jerusalem. The king of Babylon, called King Nebuchadnezzar, made a golden statue and ordered that, when music was played, everyone must bow down and worship the statue - and anyone that didn’t bow down would be thrown into the fiery furnace! However, the three friends stayed faithful to God and refused to bow down when the music played! The king was angry that Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego had not bowed down to his statue, and he had them thrown into a fiery furnace. But when the king looked into the fire, he saw 4 people in the fire, instead of 3. God had sent an angel to protect and save the three friends. The king was amazed. He called them out from the fire and said, “Praise the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego! He sent His angel and rescued these men who serve and trust Him!”
