Favor in God's Refining Fire (7.15.21)

My Child,
Please do not mistake My Fire for My Displeasure, because they are not the same thing. 

There are times when you will go through 'My Refiner's Fire' to remove impurities and anything that would hold you back from being closer to Me.

I Am your Heavenly Father, and as a Good Father, I Will address the areas that hinder your walk with Me. I Will remove the chaff that prevents you from receiving and moving into the fullness of what I Have for you.  And I Will purge you of your old nature, so that My New Nature will consume you.

You must die to your old nature; so that My New Nature may consume you.

And the process of dying to the flesh is never easy, and it must be forged in My Refiner's Fire.  You are not in the fire because I Am angry with you. Not at all.  This Fire was sent so that I Might perfect you, and form you, into the Image of My Son in your life; and there are always times where I Will permit adversity and hardship during your transformation process.

This Fire is not to punish you.
This Fire is not to destroy you.
This Fire is to perfect you, for My Glory.

My Children, for those of you that think I Am angry with you - please stop thinking that.  Please stop thinking that I Am angry with you. For that is the furthest thing from the truth. 

Let Me ask you, do you think I Was angry with Joseph when I Allowed him to be sold into slavery and cast unfairly into prison? I Loved Joseph, and I Had great plans for him. I Permitted My Refiner's Fire, so that I Could smooth out the rough edges, and to prepare Joseph for the destiny I Chose for him. I Was with Joseph during each and every hardship; and caused him to prosper in whatever he put his hands to do. My Favor was upon his life; however, I Still permitted him - it was still necessary for him to go through My Refiner's Fire, to prepare Joseph for the task that lay ahead of him. 

For many of you, this is what you are going through right now. 

I Am using My 'Fire of Adversity' to prepare you.
I Am using My 'Fire of Adversity' to form you, into
      the perfect vessel for My Service.

Please do not worry. 
I Won’t leave you in the fire,
      longer than necessary.

My Favor was upon Joseph.
My Favor was upon My Son.
My Favor was upon David, Ruth, Naomi,
     Abraham, Noah, Paul and many others.
My Favor is also upon you.

Therefore, allow Me to work My Refinement in your life.  So that you will be prepared for the Great Work - My Mighty, Abundant, Extraordinary Plan for your life - that is already 'on it's way.'

While I Am doing this work, please be patient.  And allow Me to form you into The Perfect Vessel - My Perfect Vessel - for My Service.

So, do not allow this Fire - My Refining Fire - to worry you any longer.  It is not a sign that I Am displeased with you.

Rather, it is a sign that I Have 'a call and a destiny' for your life, and that I Am actively preparing you for it.

Be encouraged this day.
My Favor is upon your life.

Never forget how much I Love you.
And that I Am with you, in all things.

I Will not abandon you,
     in the midst of the fire.
In fact, now you know.
I Love you, always.
I Never leave nor forsake you.
Even when I Correct or Purge you.

And I Am always there with you,
     in "My Refiner's Fire."

Daniel 3:24-26 - Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king. He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high GOD, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire.
