Have a blessed week! As the master potter, God can do amazing things with our life re-surrendered each day to Him!
“Lord You Are The Potter” (Here's a link to the video, if the youtube screen does not display)
Here are the lyrics to the song.
"Lord You Are The Potter & (reprise)"
Lord, You are the Potter and I am the clay.
Mold me and make me, have Thine own way
Lord, I need Your Spirit,
Lord, I need Your grace;
help me to run this Christian race.
You are the Potter, I am the clay.
Mold me and make me, have Thine own way.
You are the Potter, I am the clay.
Mold me and make me, have Thine own way.
Lord, I give my life,
I give my all to You,
to be a willing vessel,
to use me through and through.
Lord, I need Your Spirit, Lord,
I need Your grace;
help me to run this Christian race.
Have Your way,
have Your way in me.
Have Your way,
have Your Way in me.
"Lord You Are The Potter & (reprise)"
Lord, You are the Potter and I am the clay.
Mold me and make me, have Thine own way
Lord, I need Your Spirit,
Lord, I need Your grace;
help me to run this Christian race.
You are the Potter, I am the clay.
Mold me and make me, have Thine own way.
You are the Potter, I am the clay.
Mold me and make me, have Thine own way.
Lord, I give my life,
I give my all to You,
to be a willing vessel,
to use me through and through.
Lord, I need Your Spirit, Lord,
I need Your grace;
help me to run this Christian race.
Have Your way,
have Your way in me.
Have Your way,
have Your Way in me.
Listening to the song and reading the complementing relevant scriptures gives the reader an opportunity to let God’s Spirit increase faith and praises to Him. Be blessed this week!
To Worship the Big Lie
The Message (MSG)
Jeremiah 18 1-2 God told Jeremiah, “Up on your feet! Go to the potter’s house. When you get there, I’ll tell you what I have to say.”
3-4 So I went to the potter’s house, and sure enough, the potter was there, working away at his wheel. Whenever the pot the potter was working on turned out badly, as sometimes happens when you are working with clay, the potter would simply start over and use the same clay to make another pot.
5-10 Then God’s Message came to me: “Can’t I do just as this potter does, people of Israel?” God’s Decree! “Watch this potter. In the same way that this potter works his clay, I work on you, people of Israel. At any moment I may decide to pull up a people or a country by the roots and get rid of them. But if they repent of their wicked lives, I will think twice and start over with them. At another time I might decide to plant a people or country, but if they don’t cooperate and won’t listen to me, I will think again and give up on the plans I had for them.
11 “So, tell the people of Judah and citizens of Jerusalem my Message: ‘Danger! I’m shaping doom against you, laying plans against you. Turn back from your doomed way of life. Straighten out your lives.’
12 “But they’ll just say, ‘Why should we? What’s the point? We’ll live just the way we’ve always lived, doom or no doom.’”
13-17 God’s Message:
“Ask around.
Survey the godless nations.
Has anyone heard the likes of this?
Virgin Israel has become a slut!
Does snow disappear from the Lebanon peaks?
Do alpine streams run dry?
But my people have left me
to worship the Big Lie.
They’ve gotten off the track,
the old, well-worn trail,
And now bushwhack through underbrush
in a tangle of roots and vines.
Their land’s going to end up a mess—
a fool’s memorial to be spit on.
Travelers passing through
will shake their heads in disbelief.
I’ll scatter my people before their enemies,
like autumn leaves in a high wind.
On their day of doom, they’ll stare at my back as I walk away,
catching not so much as a glimpse of my face.”
