BASIC SCRIPTURE: ZECHARIAH 13:1-9 (KJV)
-
In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.
-
And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall be no more remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
-
And it shall come to pass, that when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begat him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the name of the LORD: and his father and his mother that begat him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.
-
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he hath prophesied; neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive:
-
But he shall say, I am no prophet, I am an husbandman; for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.
-
And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.
-
Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.
-
And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.
-
And I will bring the third part through 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, The LORD is my God.
BASIC SCRIPTURE: ISAIAH 48:9-11 (KJV)
-
For my name’s sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
-
Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
-
For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.

ADDITIONAL REFLECTION
Key Verse (Zechariah): Zechariah 13:9 — “I will bring the third part through 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, The LORD is my God.”
Key Verse (Isaiah): Isaiah 48:10 — “Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.”
The Three Parts (Zechariah 13:8-9):
| Portion | Outcome |
|---|---|
| Two parts | Cut off and die |
| One third (the remnant) | Brought through the fire, refined, called God’s people |
Why God Refines:
| Zechariah 13 | Isaiah 48 |
|---|---|
| To purify and try | To remove dross |
| So they will call on His name | For His name’s sake |
| So He can say “It is my people” | So His glory is not given to another |
The Furnace of Affliction:
-
Not punishment — purification
-
Not rejection — selection
-
Not the end — the entrance into calling on His name
The Fountain and the Fire:
-
Fountain (Zechariah 13:1) — for sin and uncleanness (grace)
-
Fire (Zechariah 13:9) — for refining and trying (discipline)
Both are acts of love. The fountain cleanses. The fire purifies.
Question for the Day: Are you in the furnace of affliction right now? Do not despair — you are being refined, not destroyed. The third part comes through the fire, not into it.
