“How wonderful it is to know that we go through no experiences where God is not there in divine companionship, and the hotter the fire the sweeter the fellowship. You know, I can tell you, folks, in my own experience, that whenever I get into a situation where I decide to take a stand for something and it’s the unpopular thing to do, and you start getting flack, you have this tremendous sense of divine companionship. It’s what Peter talked about when he talked about the fact that when we go through persecution, the Spirit of grace and glory rests on us. I had this overwhelming sense of the presence of God strengthening. And here they were in the fiery furnace in divine companionship. - Uncompromising Faith in the Fiery Furnace, Part 2 (Sermon)” FaithChristianityBibleEncouragementTrialsPersecutionSermonsBible StudyHardshipsJohn Macarthur Author:John F.
