Burn the Wood, Hay and Stubble

I dreamed I was in a dark chamber of some sort. It was so dark I could only make out very faint shadows of something all around me. I decided to light a match so I could see better. As soon as I lit the match, I could see piles and piles of large stacks of wood, hay and stubble (worthless, no spiritual value) all around me. I thought to myself, "Wow! Look at all the useless junk in this place. I had better put this match out or this dry, worthless stuff is going to ignite like a torch!" Just as I was about to extinguish the match, I heard a voice from Heaven say, "Belinda, throw the lit match on the wood, hay and stubble". (Zec.13:9) And I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried. They shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people; and they shall say, Jehovah is my God. (1Pe.1:7) that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold that perisheth though it is proved by fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ: (Job23:10) But he knoweth the way that I take; When he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. (Eph.5:26) that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word. (Note from David: In the midst of the trial, when we reject our own thoughts and works to save ourselves, we cooperate with Father in burning up the wood, hay and stubble that represents these things. Therefore, the command to Belinda to set them on fire represents this. These works will not survive the test of time and trial, if we reject them.)

Suddenly, I realized where I was. I was inside my own heart and this was my wood, hay and stubble. I said, "Yes, Lord, I will set this awlful stuff on fire right now!" (Pro.17:3) The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold; But Jehovah trieth the hearts. (Psa.139:23) Search me, O God, and know my heart: Try me, and know my thoughts. As soon as I threw the match onto the largest pile, it immediately shot fiery flames all the way to the top of the chamber. In what appeared like mere seconds, all these piles of useless garbage in the chamber were burning. I thought to myself, "This is the best fire ever!" I just stood, looking all around me, as these beautiful flames were burning off all this worthless junk that had attached itself to the ceiling, walls and floor of my chamber. (1Co.3:12) But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble; (13) each man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man's work of what sort it is. (14) If any man's work shall abide which he built thereon, he shall receive a reward. (15) If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as through fire.

After the flames had subsided, a beautiful, brilliant bright light engulfed my entire chamber and I saw Jesus standing in my chamber with me. Oh, praise the Lord! Jesus had a white garment with Him. He came over to me and put the beautiful, white garment on me Himself. I was so happy because I knew this was a bridal garment and Jesus himself was giving it to me. Thank you, Jesus!
