Will Satan Receive Our Worship?

The importance of worship isn't something that I think about that much, probably fair to say not many of us do.  I don't consider it a critical part of life, but at some point it will become a life or death issue.

We will be comparing the historical event of Daniel chapter 3 with a very similar situation that will occur during the Tribulation.  In Daniel's day only 3 men stood their ground out of an entire kingdom when commanded to worship a man.  The Bible tells us this situation will happen again, how will Christians handle the temptation to survive by a simple act of sin versus a violent death?  Do we consider worship sacred enough to die for?
