Embrace Purification

Daily Truth:

We’ve gotten used to living without a strong sense of God’s presence, whether it’s the result of our losing our fear of God or vice versa. But I believe with everything in me that that’s about to change. May we humbly and reverently embrace the mystery of God. The King we serve does not fit in a tidy box or a predictable formula. And He’s not to be trifled with. Up to this point, I fear we’ve been too sure of ourselves and completely unsure of how mighty God actually is. Jesus is coming for a pure and spotless Bride. If our battles don’t purify us and make us more like Him, then what did they accomplish? I’ve noticed that the more I rehearse the ways God has come through for me in the past, the stronger my confidence grows that He will carry me through, fight for me, and make a way for me in my current battle. I’m pretty sure we can say that all of our trials thus far have made us better, stronger, and more secure in Him, right? He tempers every storm and filters every attack so there’s just enough opposition to make us stronger. The devil is on a short leash. And God has planted grace in every space!

2 Corinthians 11:2 NLT ~ For I am jealous for you with the jealousy of God himself. I promised you as a pure bride to one husband—Christ.
