Trusting God's Refinement.


Life is full of unpredictable situations, shifting economies, and unexpected challenges. But none of these determine the dimension to which God intends to take us. The economy is not a determinant of our destiny, and our circumstances do not define the experiences we encounter when we truly surrender and let God have His way.

Our future is certain—not because of our strength or plans, but because of His promise. God has assured us of a place of peace, but what He hasn’t revealed is the full process it will take to get there. Often, that journey involves refining, testing, and transformation.

God is brewing something in His children. Yes, it takes time for the final product to emerge, but the furnace of affliction is shaping us into a better version of ourselves—the version He desires to reveal to the world. He is testing our hearts and assigning us to new designations, positioning us for purpose.

Friends, God can be trusted. He is faithful in every detail of our lives, even in the things we don’t understand. There is a guarantee we hold in Him, and it's found in:

Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV): “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”

The journey may be tiring. At times, it may feel overwhelming. But those who wait upon the Lord will be like Mount Zion—unshakable and immovable. Just because God has promised something doesn’t mean it will happen without resistance. Challenges will arise to test whether we’re truly ready for the blessings we seek.

But surely, there is an end. And the expectation of the righteous will not be cut short.

We will receive what we desire—in due time.


Stay revived!
