“THE VESSEL HE MADE WAS SPOILED IN THE HANDS OF THE POTTER, AND HE REWORKED IT AGAIN, AND AGAIN”!!!!!

“THE VESSEL HE MADE WAS SPOILED IN THE HANDS OF THE POTTER, AND HE REWORKED IT AGAIN, AND AGAIN”!!!!!

I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was working at his wheel. And the vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter’s hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to do. Jer. 18:3-4

My friends I need you to focus over your life today, as far back as your mind will take you, starting from childhood to adolescent, and beyond to where you are on your JOURNEY Christ has placed you on as you go through each situation, circumstances and crossroads of your life.

Now close your eyes visualize and know without a doubt, it was always the  touch of the Masters hand, at each intersection in-spite of Satan REDIRECTING  the direction you were going which from all indications at that point you became useless, and unworkable. This is where the CLAY BECOMES SPOILED, so you discard, and move on to the next project.

As a teen I remember taking pottery in a art class and each time the clay would become unworkable I would just discard, and start over. OH BUT IN THE POTTERS HANDS, HE NEVER CEASES TO REWORK and FORM THE CLAY OR OUR CHARACTERS.

My friends continue to focus on the fact that the potter always has the power over weather the clay is discarded or not, but In Christ hands He never does. Instead He uses His CREATIVE POWER and just reshapes us OVER AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL WE BECOME THE IMAGE HE IS SEEKING.

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Eph 2:10 Yes my friends it was his hands that reached down and formed man and woman from the clay of the ground as He “breathed into our nostrils the breath of life”

So you see our SAVIOR or POTTER has a vested interest in the final product and where we end up. And if we have faith in the POTTER”S TOUCH nothing “…..in all creation, will be able to separate us from the POTTERS TOUCH, and LOVE that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

“Oh what a merciful God whose grace and mercy is good, and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.” So throughout our lives He was forever working, and reworking, and because he is God we personally become His sole project, unique in Character with only one trait in common with the rest of His handiwork, and that is the POTTERS TOUCH.

And as he Continues the process from day to day, perfection will be accomplished when Christ is revealed at His second coming to each of His faithful redeemed. Psalm 139:13-16. tells us “You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth; Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book were all written The days that were ordained for me,”

My friends this tells me that we have always been in the POTTERS PLANS “to prosper each of His faithful, and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future, In His earth made new.” But the choice is still ours. Remember the things of this world that Satan has placed in front of us can also shape our destiny the only difference is his only purpose is to destroy the clay.

But we must choose whose hands we want to remain in, for you cannot have two forces working on forming our Character, “Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other.”

So remember the POTTER will “never leave or forsake you” that choice becomes our decision. So my friends just continue to allow the master to do what He does best which is to rework, and transform WITH LOVE THE VESSEL OF OUR HEART UNTIL HIS APPEARING. And then the Master will say to us “Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’ Matt. 25:23

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
