0814 耶穌是精鍊者

他顯現的時候,誰能立得住呢?因為他如煉金之人的火,如漂布之人的礆。他必坐下如煉凈銀子的,必潔凈利未人,熬煉他們像金銀一樣;他們就憑公義獻供物給耶和華。 

瑪拉基書 3:2b-3

耶穌是精鍊者。祂以火的洗禮熔化我們,除去我們一切的雜質,以至於我們的身體作為活祭,將是聖潔、蒙神接納,並為神所喜悅的。耶穌說……

當你聽見我對你說話之時,你的心豈不在你裡面燃燒嗎?我豈沒有溫柔地用凈化處境與關係之火嗎?我熔化你裡面和外面,直到留下來的,全都是讚美……

0814 JESUS is the REFINER

JESUS is the REFINER.  His baptism with fire melts us to remove all impurities from us so that our bodies as living sacrifices will be holy, acceptable, pleasing to God.  JESUS says…

Doesn’t your heart burn within you when you hear Me speak to you?  Don’t I apply the purifying fires of circumstances and relationships with gentleness?  I melt you within and without until all that remains is praise…

“And who can stand when He appears.  For He is like a refiner’s fire and like fuller’s soap.  And He will sit as smelter and purifier of silver, and He will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present to the Lord offerings in righteousness.”

Malachi 3:2b-3
