Daniel also records that God sent his angel to protect Shadrach, Meshach,and Abednego and rescue them from the fery furnace (Daniel 3:19–30). They were doomed to die but God did not forsake them. He chose to intervene in the midst of their crisis by sending an angel to shelter them from the ferceness of the fre. It was a truly amazing rescue that testifed to the superiority of the God
of Israel. Furthermore, it was God’s way of showing Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and His people of all times that He protects His own.
