Come Forth as Gold

Today’s #Snippet

Scripture Anchor:

“But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.”  Job 23:10 KJV

Apostolic Insight:

The fire was never meant to become your identity. God had something greater in view.

We began this month talking about walking worthy of refining.

Now we end with Job.

Job did not understand everything happening around him.

He could not see the conversations in heaven, could not explain the sudden losses, did not know how or when his circumstances would change.

But in the middle of what he could not understand, he knew something about God: “He knoweth the way that I take.”

There is tremendous comfort in those words. God knows the road. He knows the heat: He knows what has been removed. what has survived, and what He is producing.

Refinement was never about leaving us scorched by the fire. God the Refiner intends that something purer emerges.

So as August closes, we do not glorify difficult seasons. We glorify God who remains faithful within them.

We carry forward the lessons.

■The wisdom.

■ The restraint.

■ The humility.

■ The discernment, and

■ The deeper dependence upon Christ.

God has the final word. And by His grace, we come forth as gold.

Ponder This:

What has God developed in me that I intend to carry beyond this season?

Declaration:

My season of refinement is not wasted in the hands of God. I come forth strengthened, purified, wiser, and more deeply established in Christ. What God has developed within me will bear lasting fruit.

Prayer of Agreement:

Father, thank You for remaining faithful through every stage of my refinement.

I release what belonged to the process and carry forward what You have produced through it.

Wisdom, humility, discernment and obedience remains.

Christ will be increasingly revealed through my life. I enter the next season strengthened by Your grace and confident in Your continuing work.

In the matchless name of Jesus Christ, Amein.

Shalom,

Hephzibah Christly
