Gold is always in demand, even during recession. Very rarely does gold depreciate. Everyone loves gold – the real deal! But we must remember that gold must go through a process – and a stringent one!
Gold is cleaned during the process of refining, which filters out impurities from the raw gold. The most common method of refining is called the

Miller process. Using this method, gold is melted in an induction furnace. As it melts, chlorine gas is carefully and precisely added to the molten gold. This turns the by-products and base metals (such as silver and nickel) into solid chlorides.
The chlorides float to the top of the gold and are then skimmed off. They are called “slag.” Gold is usually put through this refining process at least two times, each time taking two to four hours and resulting in a purity factor of from 99.0% to as much as 99.5%.
In other words, if we are to come out as gold at the end of the day, then we are going to be put through the process many times to remove the dross. We will go through the fire, but it is to bring purification. The value of your gold depends on the fire it goes through.

Now there are different karat levels of gold and it refers to the quality, hardness and other qualities.
All of us must go through the fire and through the water; there is a pathway that we must follow before we can walk into prosperity. Faith must and will be tested. Great faith is going to attract great testing. (Psalm 66: 10 – 12)
“For You, O God, have tested us; You have refined us as silver is refined. You brought us into the net; You laid affliction on our backs. You have caused men to ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water; But You brought us out to rich fulfillment.”
Our fire can be affliction, adversity, injustice, lack, lies and persecution, though painful it is sometimes necessary in order to bring us to a place of maturity in God.

If you have been through the fire, then get ready to come out into your wealthy places!
Get ready for a season of great favor, great opportunities! For some of you, God is about to increase your finances. Debts are about to be written off! God is going to position you into investor-friendly atmospheres, and in the presence of business partners and donors!
Get ready!
