SOLID GOLD

6/28/2018

These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold--though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. 1 Peter 1:7

This verse above is simply a guide in your daily devotion. What I wrote is my personal revelation from the Holy Spirit, and which I want to encourage you with. I suggest you read the whole chapter of 1 Peter 1 and receive your personal revelation as well. 

As I was laid prostrate before His presence, I glanced at my forearms as my hands were clasped together. They looked shiny … and golden. I then heard His voice in my mind saying, “I am solidifying you like gold.”
 
I began to research how a gold is solidified. This is what I do when the Holy Spirit imparts something to me during my deep worship; I seek for more.
 
It took a while before I found something that really spoke to my spirit. Here is what it says about solid gold.
 
Solid gold is produced by refining mined gold to a high purity and then processing it into a final shape by melting and forming (https://www.quora.com/What-is-solid-gold-How-is-solid-gold-made).
 
From here, I went on and researched how to determine the solidity of gold. I watched a video that showed three ways to test if something is of solid gold or not: color test, thermo conductivity test, and particle test.
 
All tests measure one thing – the consistency of gold: the color test for the color; the thermo conductivity test for the compatibility of the outer and inner surface; the particle test for the consistency of gold particles as compared to other particles in it.
 
“I WILL SOLIDIFY YOU AS GOLD”. I kept repeating these words in my mind, the way the Holy Spirit spoke it to me. He did not say, “I will refine you.” He said, “I will solidify you.”
 
While purifying refers to cleansing and healing, solidifying refers to establishing consistency and integrity.
 
God does not only want to purify you, but to solidify you. He wants to create a testimony in you that will weather the storms in your life. He wants you to be able to stand strong in the midst of trials. He wants you to be a witness of His full restoration, something that will stand the test of time. He wants a SOLID PRODUCT that will prove its value in whatever way it is tested.
 
Are you getting weary waiting for His promise for you? Are you wondering when He is going to release you? Are you questioning why He is allowing you to be in a pinch? Are you thinking that He has forgotten about you? Do you feel like He has suspended you on air? Have you been waiting for Him to rescue you from your situation?
 
Take courage, My child,” I hear Him say. “I am solidifying you like gold. I am producing in you a product that will continue proving its value, no matter how it is tested. What I am doing to you is so much bigger than what you are asking for. All you see is your present situation …  your personal life. What I see is My story … the building of My kingdom here on earth.

I have chosen you not as an earthly vessel but a golden vessel … and a solid gold at that. You are not just gold-plated. You are chosen to be solid pure gold. If you will continue to endure the process, you will see the result not only once … not only in your lifetime … not only in this world. You will see the result endure for eternity.
