Under the microscope of Jesus!

His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me today about this subject.

This started in the Garden of Eden with God asking Adam and Eve how they knew they were naked. They both had defied God and sinned. This caused a cataclysmic wave of sin to enter into the lives of all humanity.

The beautiful creation of God became a blight and brought darkness, sorrow and suffering to all.

If you are a believer you are under the scrutiny of Jesus at all times.

The analogy used in this scripture is a winnowing fork which was used in ancient days to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Sin never goes away. You might be living a life pleasing to God but there is an undercurrent of sin in your nature.

We will all have to face God at the judgment seat. He will store the wheat (your good work) in Heavenly glory and the chaff (your sin) will be burned up and disappear forever.

God is holy and there will never be sin in heaven.

Getting back to the reality of life today, Jesus is omniscient and sees everything. He evaluates your thoughts, motives and actions with the values of God.

God sees the part of your personality hidden from your eyes. It is not a pretty picture. The Holy Spirit is constantly at work to convict and correct a believer.

Most importantly, God wants to deal with the underlying core issues driving your sin. He accomplishes this by intercession and the fires of God.

The role of a believer is to confess your sins and ask Jesus to cover you with His blood. You must also have an open heart asking God to convict you of sin and then seek repentance.

At times, Jesus will bring up your past sins as a reminder of your disgusting actions and the mercy of God. The wake up calls confirm the importance of walking with Jesus under the authority of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus desires for a believer to be a fountain of Living Water touching all those in his life. Remember, yours is not to judge for the measure of your judgment of others will fall upon you.
