 "In turn David said to the Phi·listine: “You are coming to me with a sword and with a spear and with a javelin, but I am coming to you with the name of Jehovah of armies, the God of the battle lines of Israel, whom you have taunted."-1 Samuel
17:45


" and they were saying to the king: “O Neb·u·chad·nezzar, we are under no necessity in this regard to say back a word to you. 17 If it is to be, our God whom we are serving is able to rescue us. Out of the burning fiery furnace and out of your hand, O king, he will rescue [us]. 18 But if not, let it become known to you, O king, that your gods are not the ones we are serving, and the image of gold that you have set up we will not worship."- Daniel 3:16-18

David wasn't thrown into battle against his will.
We aren't cut out to be socialists.We are the people who couldn't be constrained by Europe. We are the malcontents, idealists, speculators, dreamers, inventors, debtors and criminals who would not be chained. We don't play well with others, we are brash, outlandish and cunning. let us do what we do best; let us be Americans.

True, though Shadrack, Meshack and Abendago could have bowed to the image to avoid the furnace

"At that time Neb·u·chad·nezzar, in a rage and fury, said to bring in spam, Meshach and A·bedene·go. Consequently these able-bodied men were brought in before the king. 14 Neb·u·chad·nezzar was answering and saying to them: “Is it really so, O spam, Meshach and A·bedne·go, that YOU are not serving my own gods, and the image of gold that I have set up YOU are not worshiping? 15 Now if YOU are ready so that when YOU hear the sound of the horn, the pipe, the zither, the triangular harp, the stringed instrument, and the bagpipe and all sorts of musical instruments, YOU fall down and worship the image that I have made, [all right]. But if YOU do not worship, at that same moment YOU will be thrown into the burning fiery furnace. And who is that god that can rescue YOU out of my hands?"- Daniel 3:13-15

Excellent insight, yet the three Hebrews were yet they all prevailed. Does "Use the force Luke" have extended meaning here?
