You need to watch the furnace go through several heating cycles. It could be gas valve solenoid (not likely) or ignition system... more likely.

You need to watch and listen carefully and write down what you hear... clank, flow of gas, ignition getting red to white hot (or sparking) depending on ignition system.

Once you know where the ignition process stops/fails, then it's easier to find the answer.
