Have you ever wondered why God takes us through the wilderness? It’s God’s process to mold us and shape us just like a silversmith does with valuable metals. What we often don’t realize is that It’s impossible to form a metal without first applying heat and removing the impurities. We want the finished product without going through the process. We want the results without the work and the blessings without the sacrifice. We can choose to allow God to form us through this process or continue to blame everyone else and stay stuck in the furnace. In this message Pastor Chris teaches that God’s fire is not meant to consume us, but to refine us.
