North Naples Men are committed to growing deeper in their relationships with God and building friendships.

I was doing my reading for morning Bible study about Daniel’s friends telling the king of Babylon they would not bow down to his Golden statue. He says if they dont obey, he’ll have them thrown into the fiery furnace. ‘We trust our God can surely save us, but even if He doesnt, we wont bow down to this thing you have made.’

Then the study book refers to the passage in Acts where Peter and John were on trial for proclaiming Jesus as the Messiah. They were flogged and banned from further preaching.

“But Peter and the apostles replied, “We must obey God rather than any human authority.” – Acts 5:29

Lord God, help me to discern Your will and to trust You, no matter what.
