"I have chosen you in the furnace of affliction." Isaiah 48:10
The Lord's people are an afflicted people. The afflictions that the Lord's people have to pass through are not meant to be light ones. The Lord lays no light burdens on His people's shoulders.
His purpose is to bring them to a certain point to work a certain work in their souls—to reduce them to that helplessness, weakness and powerlessness in which His strength is made manifest.
