I Just Want to be Clean - by Neal Hatfield

We Must Be Refinded Like Gold

The LORD wants to purge us. When gold is mined out of the earth, it is
surrounded by impurity. They take it and boil it under intense heat and all
of the impurities rise to the top and are skimmed off and the pure gold
remains. Psalms 51:1-13 talks about that. David sees his ugly sin, knows he
has broken the heart of GOD and yearns to be cleaned, purged, and set free.
He cried out things like , blot it out, purge me, create in me a clean
heart. The bottom line is he was desperate about his sin.

Are you there? Do you want that kind of cleansing? The truth is only JESUS
CHRIST can do that. The Bible says we must repent, that means we come to the
place that we hate our sin, confess it to the LORD and then forsake it. When
we are really broken about our sin we not only want to be forgiven but we
want to be changed and not go back to it.  Many times I have prayed "LORD I
am sick and tired of being sick and tired. Please change me".
Maybe your are in the cleansing fire right now, run to JESUS and let him
skim off all the filth and let is HIS purity shine in your life. I love the
kids song: let others see JESUS in you, let other see JESUS in you, keep
telling the story so faithful and true, let others see JESUS in you. I
really do JUST WANT TO BE CLEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
