00:00V. God's presence in trial. A remarkable pattern runs through scripture and history.
00:06When trials intensify, God's presence becomes most real. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego met
00:12Christ in the furnace. Daniel encountered divine deliverance in the lion's den. Paul testified,
00:19the Lord stood with me and strengthened me. David Brainerd preached through illness and hunger.
00:25A Jai Crowther encountered God amid the horrors of a slave ship. Jonah met God in the belly of a
00:32great
00:33fish. We may flee God's call, but his arm is long. Storms, trials and interruptions often become
00:40instruments of mercy. God pursues his servants not to destroy them, but to redirect them.
00:46Nothing can hinder God's saving purpose.
