cutting diamonds
He is making diamnds out of us
God is making that final cut on His brilliant diamonds, so the light of His glory can shine through and draw men unto Himself!!
Before you get too excited, let's examine what a diamond looks like before the polishing, cutting, and setting. As you can see in the picture, a diamond starts out as a black lump of coal. When that coal is washed, buffered, polished, cut, repolish and cut again, it is then that it begins to show forth brilliance! The light will hit a diamond and cause it to show forth a rainbow with the most brilliant light shining through it. Wow! Only our God can take us in our ugly state and transform us into something so magnificent and greatly valued!
When a diamond has that perfect cut, the light will hit it and it will light up and shine greatly!!!
There is a special polishing and cutting that brings great value to a diamond, so go on and let God make that final cut!!! hallelujah!!
A diamond was set in the breastplate of the priest. Exodus 39:11, And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
Jesus is now the high priest who died once and there was a need for change. There are those of us who he has chosen to set in his breastplate. Hebrews 7:26, For such a high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
Hebrews 5:5, So also Christ glorified not himself to be made a high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.
Hebrews 6:20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest forever after the order of Melchisedec.
Hebrews 4:14, Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our profession.
We are in the setting season, so do not miss the placement and the setting of you, His diamonds!
Psalms 91:14, Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
A diamond breastplate is used to cover the upper body as a defense against bodily attack.
"Ancient Greeks named the diamond "adamas," meaning "invincible," indestructible," proper," and 'untamed." Warriors in ancient Greece wore diamonds as the stones were thought to strengthen the warriors' muscles and bring them invincibility. The power, hardness, and beauty of the diamond have been prized throughout history in many civilizations. The famous Persian poet Hafiz remarked that "the rainbow is confined in a diamond forever"
"Going back to early history, diamonds were always used to engrave tools because of their hardness".
What is God engraving through you His diamonds? What weapon of warfare has God engraved your name on through you His diamonds? Don't believe God will write your name upon something for a purpose? Revelation 3:12, Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
Numbers 17:3, And thou shalt write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levi: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.
Let God cut you to set you and write your name upon His purpose for his glory and will to be done on the earth. Amen
