THE POTTER WHO LIVES IN US

“Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand.”

— Jeremiah 18:6 (NIV)

God sent Jeremiah to a Potter's house to show him an illustration of His love and faithfulness. The scripture says, “ But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him. Then the word of the Lord came to me. He said, “Can I not do with you, Israel, as this potter does?” declares the Lord. “Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel.” (Jeremiah 18:4-6 NIV)

Beloved, when we were dead in sin, our Potter did not abandon us ,rather He predestined us to be conformed to the image of His Son, so He can love in us, all that He loves in His Son. Romans 8:29 NIV says, “For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.”

We are the clay, and our Potter is the God who loves us, lives in us, and is committed to shaping us into the image of Christ. All those troubles we face are molding us to a greater glory, for He never molds us for harm but for His glory and our good. “For I know the plans I have for you... plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV).

Our responsibility is simple: surrender to Him and align our minds with His Word. As we yield to His hands, He faithfully shapes us into all He created us to be. In the end, both the Potter and the clay will rejoice together

.

WE PRAY FOR THE GRACE TO SURRENDER TO OUR POTTER IN HIS WORDS IN JESUS NAME AMEN!

THANK YOU JESUS!
