That’s what the devil tries to do all the time—burn you up on something, make you sicker when you’re prayed for, make you think you’ve lost your experience with God. He’s a lying to you. The time comes when you have to stand on God’s Word. Stand alone. But when that time comes, stand there. There’s got to be a time when you’ve got to separate yourself between your feelings and your faith. That’s the time it is tonight. The time comes that when these Hebrew children had to seal their testimony by a fiery furnace. I can see them that morning. Let’s look immediately. I can see them that morning. There’d come a great time in Babylon. The king said, “Now, look. We’ve got some fanatics down here. And they’re ‘causing us a little trouble with their religion. So we’ll just build a furnace fire over there, and heat it seven times hotter than it ever was het. And we’ll burn that out of them.”
