We will survive the refiner’s fire if we keep our eyes focused on God’s sovereignty and what He is doing. His goal in this process is to refine us so that He might pour out His power and His glory on us.
The refiner’s fire sets us free from hindering imperfections and works God’s character and nature into us. And when the flames subside, what emerges from our lives will be pure, perfect, indestructible and worth more than the finest gold.
