Scripture of the Day - February 12, 2012

Jeremiah 18:4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.

If you truly want God to work in your life He may need to break you in order to work with you. In order for the potter to mold the clay it must be pliable in his hands... if it's not, he had to beat it down and start again. God says Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand.

Sometimes we let nasty things build up inside of us and the only way to get rid of them is through the fire. In order for gold to be purified it must first have all the dross burned out. Peter talks about the trials of our faith being much more precious than gold that's been tried with fire. Jesus is coming back for a church that is without spot or wrinkle, that means a church that's been purified, a church that's allowed itself to be molded by the Master's hand.

Let God mold you into a perfect vessel, a vessel in which He can pour his grace and power. Don't close yourself off to God, rather, surrender to Him and let Him work miracles in your life.
