“More Precious than Gold…” Really? How could a trial be “more precious than gold?”
“That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.” I Peter 1:7
In Numbers 31, the Israelites had just won a major battle. They gathered so much “stuff,” 67,500 sheep, 72,000 cattle, 61,000 donkeys, not to mention everything else! But Eleazar the priest told them, “Every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make it go through the fire.” Numbers 31:23
So, if you are “going through the fire today,” you are about to come out with the victory! Have a great day!
