The Requirements for Refining
The refining process requires us to be great stewards of our time, talent, and treasures, and we must manage this process with the partnership. I am dropping jewels on 4Rs that will help you help you on this CROWNED Life Journey.
Reading: Reading God's word is a transformative process. The Bible is our love language from God to his children and our manual for managing life's trials and tribulations. John 16:33 NLT; I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth, you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart because I have overcome the world." The Bible can speak to our now and heal our past while equipping us for the future.
Restructuring: Being refined will require you to partner with God and organize things differently. Encountering Jesus is a transformative and evolving process. God will require more of you in that transformative and evolving way, which isn't bad. It means that he will not allow us to walk into any season unprepared or ill-equipped just because he doesn't disclose all the details doesn't mean you're lacking destiny. It means that God wants you to trust him; as you rely on him more, he will reveal his plans to you more.
Refusal: You must have a mindset to refuse to live beneath what God has for you. In EVERY sphere of Life, The CROWNED Life is my rightful portion, and I won't accept anything less. It's my responsibility to teach others how to do the same, and it's an honor that God would choose me to bring something so royal and regal to the earth.
Rest: Now, this jewel is vital and biblical; we are often exhausted, disgusted, and unfilled, which compromises our ability to execute in the spirit of excellence and the ability to dominate in destiny. To do those things, we must REST throughout the refining process, life is a journey, not a destination. As we journey together and through our refining process, don't forget to journey with Jesus.
