Divine Demolition: A 3-Day Planಮಾದರಿ

Oftentimes times the Lord uses painful trials as part of the sanctification process in our lives—the controlled demolition project. When we are going through a series of trials, it can feel like the implosion of a building, like one explosion after another going off in our hearts, leaving billows of dust. It can seem chaotic and be very painful and frightening. We might wonder why the Lord is allowing it to happen. We might even question whether there will be anything left when it's done.

Many times, though, the Lord is using these trials to implode strongholds in our heart. He is very strategic, precise, and purposeful, even though the process can be painful and at times extremely confusing and frightening from our point of view. God has an incredibly beautiful way of destroying the old without harming the new and even growing, strengthening, and establishing us in the process. Even as we are in the midst of or healing from some of the destruction, we can rejoice over the new He is building!
