Passing Through the Fire

I saw an image of a loaf cake fresh out of the oven. I feel God is saying that He desires to take us to a new level, however we first have to pass through the fire. In the same way that the cake has to go through the oven in order to change from a batter into a cake, so we have to go through God’s refining fire to reach a new level of what He has in store for us.

I felt God saying, “My child, are you willing to go through the fire for Me? I desire to purify you and strengthen you for the plans I have for you, however this can only take place by passing through the fire. Do not fear the heat or flames, for I will protect you. You will emerge as refined metal, equipped for that which I have in mind for you. ”

I was reminded of Psalm 66:10 – “You have tested us, O God; you have purified us like silver.”

When we go through the fire, God will be with us in the midst of it. We will emerge strengthened in every aspect of our faith and we will experience a deeper intimacy with God. He forms us and purifies us, preparing us for a new level of service to Him.
