“The Clay In God’s Hand”
Saturday, October 19, 2024Key Verse
“O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.” Jeremiah 18:6
Text — Jeremiah 18:1-6
Message
Have you ever gone on an excursion to a potter’s workshop before? How about a factory where pots and other vessels are being manufactured? The potter moulds vessels of different sizes and shapes. In the course of moulding. If any has a defect, the potter breaks it down and remoulds it.
God is the potter and we are the clay in His hands. He knows and determines what is best for us at every point in time. He knows your weaknesses: strengths and every secret thing no other person knows about you. Just like it is impossible for a pot to dictate what form it wants to take to its moulder, it is dangerous for anyone to try to instruct God on what to do with his or her life. Surrender your entire life to Jesus today and let Him lead you one day at a time. God is still at work in your life. He has not finished with you yet. He will fulfil all that He has promised concerning you.
