TODAY’S TOPIC: Why you must serve God with all you have?


Text: Jeremiah 18: 1-4, 6 (AMP Bible)


“The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord: “Arise and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will make you hear My words.” Then I went down to the potter’s house, and saw that he was working at the wheel. But the vessel that he was making from clay was spoiled by the potter’s hand; so he made it over, reworking it and making it into another pot that seemed good to him. “O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter does?” says the Lord. “Look carefully, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel."



*SHOWER:*

Today's scripture used stories of potters to remind us the wonderful power of God. A Potter can decide to unmake a pot already made by adding more features to it so that it will become bigger. Or by reducing the size to become smaller. A Potter can also beautiful or reshape an old pot, repackage it, change the colour or so. That is a typical example of what God can do in our life. Hence, the need for us to utilise the skills, knowledge and talents He gave us to serve Him diligently. When you refuse to honour Him with that gift, He can take it away from you and give it even to an older person, a younger person, less educated person or someone you least expected could possess the skills. It is also a sign that God can change you from whatever situation or level you found yourself now to another bigger, better or lesser situation. He did it to Nebuchadnezzar when he thought he was all and all on earth. You must submit yourself to Him so that He could take you higher. That is why He said in another passage that He can raise stones to worship Him if we humans refused to do that. Think twice and start using that He gave to you. 



*PRAYER/DECLARATIONS*

*2. I will continue to rise and grow in my faith.*


*3. I hereby decree and declare total submission in the things of God, total promotions and divine turn around in Jesus name, Amen.*
