REFINED AND RENEWED=IN JESUS
To REFINE=means to
Make fine again=and to PURIFY
Refining processes may include fire=
Certain chemicals=or machinery=
But for us human beings-
It just means
To TAKE ON Jesus=to go
Through whatever you must
Whatever pain=you you must ENDURE
To make Jesus
NUMBER ONE=in your life
“For he is like
THE REFINER'S FIRE........” Malachi 3:2
COVID-19=has brought
Much pain and anxiety
To our lives
Will we ever RECOVER
Our past lives?
Will our lives EVER
Be like=they once were?
PERHAPS NOT
Will the political divisions=and
The civil UNREST=ever be done
Maybe not
But we are being
REFINED in this world
We are being refined=FOR JESUS
So that one day=
We can be TOTALLY RENEWED-
In God the Father=and in CHRIST JESUS
“Therefore this is what
The Lord Almighty says
'See I will REFINE
And test them=for what else
Can I do
Because of the sin
Of my people?'” Jeremiah 9:7
“This third one=I will put
Into the fire=I will REFINE THEM
Like silver=and test them=like gold
They will call=on my name
And I will answer them
I will say=
'They are my people'
And they will say=
'The Lord is our God'” Zechariah 13:9
HOW have challenges
And HARDSHIPS refined you?
How have you been RENEWED?
How have you=
REDEDICATED yourself to God?
This world is not easy=
We are-
CONSTANTLY being tested
Pass the test=and renew yourself
In the Lord
Let the Lord REFINE YOU=
Let the Lord=redirect you
In his ways=
RENEW yourself
In the Lord today
“........who satisfies your desires
With good things
So that your youth
Is RENEWED=like the eagle's” Psalm 103:5
“Therefore we=
Do not lose heart=though outwardly
We are wasting away
Yet inwardly=
We are BEING RENEWED
Day by day” 2 Corinthians 4:16
Yes=this life is refining us=
We are being RENEWED
With Jesus
Until we are ONE
With the Lord
In the names of Jesus=and our ever RENEWING=God the HOLY FATHER!
