“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.” Isaiah 43:2 ESV
God uses water and fire throughout the Bible as necessary passages of faith which not only prove His presence with us but also usher us into new realms of spiritual life and blessing.
This promise reminds us of God’s miraculous provision and breakthrough for all who face seemingly overwhelming circumstances.
The Red Sea, Jordan River, Nebuchadnezzar’s fiery furnace, and Jesus’ baptisms of water and fire all testify He’s using it for good to give us a future and a hope.
