SKIMMING THE DROSS
I AM removing another layer off you, My beloved ones. You have gone through a fiery circumstance and the dross in this has risen to the surface. Fret not, this is My doing as I carefully watch over all that touches your life. Like silver that is tried in a furnace, My Word in you is purified seven times. I AM keeping you and preserving you through this.
Through these fires, I AM giving you My heart for the oppressed and the needy, for the widows and orphans. I AM giving you My passion for justice. I AM restoring My judges and counsel upon the earth. My faithful ones shall reign in righteousness.
Prov 25:4-5 NKJV
Take away the dross from silver, And it will go to the silversmith for jewelry. Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne will be established in righteousness.
Ps 12:5-7 NKJV
“For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now I will arise,” says the LORD; “I will set him in the safety for which he yearns.” The words of the LORD are pure words, Like silver tried in a furnace of earth, Purified seven times. You shall keep them, O LORD, You shall preserve them from this generation forever.
Isa 1:22-26 NKJV
Your silver has become dross, Your wine mixed with water. 23 Your princes are rebellious, And companions of thieves; Everyone loves bribes, And follows after rewards. They do not defend the fatherless, Nor does the cause of the widow come before them. 24 Therefore the Lord says, The LORD of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel, “Ah, I will rid Myself of My adversaries, And take vengeance on My enemies. 25 I will turn My hand against you, And thoroughly purge away your dross, And take away all your alloy. 26 I will restore your judges as at the first, And your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.”
Ezek 22:18-19 NKJV
“Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to Me; they are all bronze, tin, iron, and lead, in the midst of a furnace; they have become dross from silver.
