THE ULTIMATE POTTER

TOPIC: THE ULTIMATE POTTER

BIBLE TEXT: Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. - Isaiah 64:8

Young children often love clay because it does whatever you want it to. It is easy to bend, fold and squish. And if you make a mistake, you can fix it instantly by pushing the clay back into place.

Some of these children go on to become potters. They form intricate sculptures that sell in art galleries via social platforms for thousands of dollars both in Africa and overseas. They create gorgeous clay pots, mugs and bowls. These potters are artists. They put their heart and soul into their work. They are diligent, making sure that every aspect of their creation is just the way they want it. They know it has to be perfect because it will be a reflection of who they are as artists. In the hands of these talented artists, the clay becomes a masterpiece, bearing their signature.

Get a mirror this morning and look at the beautiful creation of our Heavenly Father. We are God’s artwork. He forms us like clay, modeling us with his own hands. We bear his signature. He does not make mistakes. He is God—the ultimate potter. And we are God’s masterpieces. Wherever we go, the handwriting of God is seen upon us and no man or spirit can claim the originality of our existence.

PRAYER

Dear God, thank you for creating us. Thank you for intentionally making each of us unique. Thank you for loving us. Amen.

INSIGHT

You are a master piece made by God in Heaven.

MARY, DID YOU KNOW?

Date - December 19th, 2021 Topic - MARY, DID YOU KNOW? Bible Text - But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.” - Luke 1:30-31 If God had asked the women of Israel who wanted to be the mother of the Messiah, every one of them would have raised her hand. If they had known what that privilege would actually involve—becoming pregnant before marriage, enduring terrible gossip, watching helplessly as their Son was mocked, ridiculed, tortured and crucified—those hands would have come down in a hurry. Mary certainly didn’t volunteer for the job. And she was stunned to discover she’d been selected for such an important role. She handled the extraordinary situation with grace and humility. She asked one question to help her understand God’s plan, then agreed to it immediately. God has a plan for each of us. Ours may not be as earth-shattering as Mary’s. Ou...

DO TI NOW

May 11th – Capsule 11 TOPIC : DO IT NOW BIBLE TEXT : Redeeming the time, because the days are evil – Ephesians 5 vs. 16 How many times have you said, “I will do it tomorrow?” sometimes you put somethings off because you don’t think you know enough, can’t do it well enough. The fact is, there is no magic age at which excellence emerges and quality suddenly surfaces. Thomas Jefferson was 33 when he drafted the Declaration of Independence. Charles Dickens was 24 when he began his Pickwick Papers, and 25 when he wrote Oliver Twist. Newton was 24 when he formulated The Law of Gravity. A second danger is to think that creativity and invention belong to the young. Not so! Emmanuel Kant wrote his finest philosophical work at age 74. Verdi at 80 produced crossing the Bar, and Michelangelo completed his greatest work at 87, Moses was 80 when he led God’s people out of Egypt and 120 when he got to Canaan. Seize the day! Redeem the new moments of your life. Because the time and age ...

Look to Jesus Christ

DATE 21st JANUARY, 2023 TOPIC Look to Jesus Christ LIVING SCRIPTURE Hebrews 12:2 KJV Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. This morning we look at the perfect example given to the church by the LORD, where we should set our attention to meditate, ponder or let occupy our mind palace and heart. There's only one deep focus, and that is Jesus Christ the Son of the Living God. By the Spirit of God that revealed this truth in the anchor scripture, He shows us the author; the mind behind the working living faith, Jesus Christ is the author of the book called faith. Look up to Him by searching in the volume of books He wrote and build up your faith from there. Jesus wrote everything needed for the manifestations of realms. Faith does not stop here alone on earth but faith is heard above in the heavens. Let the word of God gu...
