Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the area of Babylon. Daniel 3:30

You have the ability to stand up for what you believe and for whom you believe in. This is true of your loyalty toward friends and family as well as your loyalty to God.

You do not allow others to dictate your values or coerce you into an uncomfortable position of questionable ethics.

As the three Hebrew boys risked their entire future in order to remain true to their own sense of values, you too, are sometimes called upon to stand when everyone around you bows.

The temptation to accommodate powerful people, not matter how disgraceful, may be great, but as you maintain your stance and walk through the fire, you will find there is honor and promotion waiting on the other side.

You may sometimes be alone in your convictions, but you can count on Jesus to be at your side.

When you emerge from the fiery trial, you will discover that the burning shame did not touch you, and not even a hint of humiliation remains.

The promotion that you receive after walking through the fire may come from the same source who attempted to destroy you. This is an act of God, on your behalf. It is His pleasure to see His children promoted.

God has the power to change the heart of any authority figure, and He will happily do so, in order to place good people like you in positions of power.

Zadok rebuilt the wall in front of his house. Samaiah, who protected the East Gate, rebuilt the section after that. Nehemiah 3:29

You have a persistent drive to repair and protect. Whether the source of disorder is a structure, a landscape, or a person, you recognize evidence of original design buried beneath the messy surface.

You have been given the gift of spiritual perception which sees past the damage and identifies true hidden value.

You understand that each child of God is a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit. You possess a unique level of expertise in which you can clearly assess damages and identify appropriate steps to restore original beauty and brilliance, reflecting the Designer’s intent.

Many seek you out for your advice and input.  Your natural ability to accept people in their current state, and not shy away from dysfunctional behaviors, places you in a position of great influence.

Much like the experts who made repairs to the destroyed walls in Nehemiah’s day, you work to reconstruct the protective boundaries for God’s lost children who have been demolished by addiction, tragedy and poor choices.

With your relaxed demeanor and casual sense of humor, you build bridges for communication. With your commitment to stability and safety, you offer support to those who are feeling unsteady.

As you open your heart to those who are vulnerable and at risk, you are guarding the gate from the enemy intruders of lies and deception. 

You maintain secure boundaries. You dedicate your time and talents  to creating safe spaces and developing a secure sense of community.

Exodus 3:20…”I will use my great power against your oppressors. I will make miracles happen in that land.”

The Lord cares deeply about you. He sees that some of the things you go through are unfair, but He always brings you through them and into a position of power.

You sense God’s presence with greater intensity during times when your burden seems too heavy to carry alone.  Because of this, you can be grateful for your struggles, because they generate a new level of intimacy between you and your Creator.

Knowing that God does what is right, you have come to rely on His justice. You do not hesitate to ask Him for a judgment call any time you see a violation of what is honest, fair, and right.

Because you know God is just and will help you carry the heaviness you feel after having been wronged, you are able to move easily into forgiveness where freedom is found. 

Assured that the Creator of the Universe is interested in what happens to those who are harmed by human injustices, you remain alert to any violation of basic human rights.

God promises to hand down a ruling that is just, bringing integrity where there was once corruption; and equality where there was once disparity.

You know that you are called to speak for those who have no voice. You feel impassioned to stand up for those who are held in bondage by prejudice and inequity. You reject any ideology which promotes bigotry or derision.

You often cry out to God about this particular aspect of the human condition. You pursue all remedies available to eliminate its ugly presence in society.

In answer to your passionate prayers, the Commander of Angel Armies is empowering other individuals who will help you advance this cause and shed light on the social injustices which have plagued society for centuries.

No human will be able to stand against His plan. Justice will be served. Honor will be given where honor is due.
