The redemptive fire

The redemptive fire most thinks it is about trials and tribulations of a negative place. But it does not have to be a negative place. Rather it also include going from grace to grace; is still a struggle because we are moving from familiar to unfamiliar. We know of the struggles, trials, and tribulations of getting out of a bad situation, the uneasiness, the trepidation, the fear, the not knowing, and the leaving of friends. What we fail to realize many time this is the same thing that happens when you move in an atmosphere, position, place, or arena, you have never been, or ever expected to be. It is same struggle, and we sabotage ourselves here as well there because we let the world, and the words of others to impede our progress. Whether it moving out of our madness, or moving into more abundance. So, the redemptive fires are actually a purifier for us, regardless of whether you are getting out of a negative place, or moving into more abundance. See in the redemptive fires, God decides – Phil. 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ…(AKJV). Therefore, God will not stop until it is completed, but that means the fat, the excess, the waste, unproductive things/people to your call has to be rendered out. This is not easy because although we know, we cannot take everyone with us, we cannot continue with the all the same habits we use to do, and we are changed from the inside out; we do not choose what, or who stays, or comes into our life. It is not just an external change; it is both – inside and outside. Yet, what we forget when we surrender, submit, let go and let God, we are no longer in control. The redemptive fires are not there to leave you like you are, but to clean out the mess, and so that the reflective spirit of His goodness is seen in you; this cannot be accomplished with us remaining the same; whether getting out of mess or going into more abundance. It grants the opportunity for the best in us to come out of us. God’s sees and desires all to feast on the greatness He has put in us. See, Marvin Sapp is right, it does not matter how we feel, what we did because God sees us for who we are. The redemptive fires allow for God’s lovingkindness to reign and spread to all. The redemptive fires are the manifesting of the God’s hands on you, and as He done with his Son for our salvation, He will do not less to us, to bless us. His son was sinless, and He went through the struggles to provide a way for us, what more would he do to you, me, us. It is not comfortable, it does not feel good, it is scary, and we feel alone. There are rivers of tears cried, there are head bent back in anguish, there are blows that leave bruises, and you wonder how long. Know, He will see you through, and he is there comforting you, and submit to his will as our example did – I commend my spirit, not my will but Thy will be done!! For God is Jehovah-Mkaddesh He is the God that sanctifies us (victory over sin) 1 Corinthians 1:30 - It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption (NIV)
