Today's Scripture *June 19, 2009*
Isaiah 48: 10
I have refined you, but not as silver is refined.
Rather, I have refined you in the furnace of suffering.
Rather, I have refined you in the furnace of suffering.
Do you find it easy to complain when your life becomes complicated or difficult?
Why would a loving God allow all kinds of unpleasant experiences to come to His children?
This verse shows us plainly that God tests us and refines us. Rather than complain; our response should be to turn to God in faith for strength to endure and rejoice in our afflictions (Romans 5:3 We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. ; James 1: 2-4 Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.).
For without the testing, we would never know what we are capable of doing, nor would we grow. And without the refining, we will not become pure and more like Christ.
If you are facing adversity or suffering, seek God and His refining work in your life.
Thank You Father for Your purifying and refining in our lives.
We worship You and thank You for all You have done and all that You will continue to do.
In the Matchless Name of Jesus, Amen...
God bless and have a wonderful weekend!
