In Jeremiah 18 we God comparing Himself to the potter. We see him say He will raise up nations and tear them back down as the potter reshapes clay that has defects. The Lord tells Jeremiah to prophesy unpopular words to his kinsmen. He was put in stocks and ridiculed and made fun of for his obedience to the point that He wished He was never born. Still the truth burned within Him and He could not be silent.
The same king sent for Jeremiah to inquire of Him and again the message was not pleasant because they had built their house on unrighteousness. They were in nice paneled houses yet their house (nation) was to be destroyed because of being a stiff necked nation.
What are we building our house on today? What is He telling you today? The Lord has plans to prosper us and bless us exceedingly, abundantly above anything we can ever imagine. Will we be able to enjoy His blessing, or is there still work that He must do first?
Dan Holley
