Are you a vessel ready for the Master Potter to break, knead, bend and re-shape over and over in the potters’ wheel? Yes, many of you may attempt to put yourselves to use, without the process of the breaking, molding, refining fire, the hardening, and the process of waiting to be form into a shape to stand firm and strong by the Mater Potter! In this manner, you will never make it to the ultimate and high calling that He has for you, if you do not allow Him to take you through this process.
If you try to make it happen yourself, without waiting for Him to make it happen.. If you jump out of the process, and run out to do the “work of the Kingdom”, you may do some, but you will not accomplish all He has set for you to do while you are on this earth instead be burned out physically and depress!
He is looking for completely yielded vessels. A yielded vessel that means a vessel yielding his/ hers desire to be something, yielding their desire to make something happen, yielding their wants and thoughts of what “they are call” and ministry will be…yielding it all to Him, and letting Him break it, mold it, and make it, into what He wants it to be. He is looking for vessels of honor, set apart, holy and righteous unto Him!
Are you one of those who has been taken through the extreme breaking? The crushing & molding? The refining fire and the hardening? Have you been sitting on the shelf waiting?
Don’t worry, my brother, my sister…you are simply being made a vessel, fit for the Master’s use! You have been taken into the furnace, and the heat has been turned up very hot…to melt away the impurities. Because you are not just any vessel…you are being made to be a vessel of honor, to fit in the Master’s hand, and to be used as a drink offering unto Him! Your life will be one poured out for Him.
You all have cry and sang to the Lord asking Him not to let fire in His altar burns out! Now many have been in this process, Lord saying: “Do not become discouraged in the breaking, in the refining fire, and in the waiting! For He has not forgotten you, but have simply answered your cry…the cry of your heart to be made a vessel formed and shaped by My hand.
He has been forming you, molding you into something beautiful for His particular purpose…and you will be used in a greater way, for a greater purpose, than even what you have imagined. He has been forming you into a beautiful vase, with intricate details that only He know and understand. He has made sure you are hardened for the task ahead, but remember to still stay pliable in His hand, and do not let the hardening process harden your heart!
You must be soft hearted, yet strong in will and purpose! You are being formed and fashioned into a beautiful masterpiece, yet only the Master Potter can see what the final result will be. Let Him heal you of your wounds, and of your scars, so that you will be a purified vessel, so that you will be a vessel without the marring of the process. Let Him smooth out your jagged edges, and make you a beautiful creation, the vessel He has chosen to carry His Glory!
“I am setting you apart, a holy vessel, set apart for My use alone, made fit for My purposes.
Do not think it strange that you have had to walk through so much to come to this place, for it is the ancient path, and it is the way of Your Master.”
Will you cry out with me again today ~ “Master, make me a vessel fit for Your use! I surrender it all to You…not my will, not my desire, not my ambitions, but Yours! Make me what You want me to be, and make me fit, spirit, soul, and body…a vessel of honor, completely fit for Your use!”
“Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also vessels of wood and of earthenware, and some to honor and some to dishonor. Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.” (2 Timothy 2:20-21)
