The title will likely spark your curiosity to read about the house of worship our beloved Bishop TD Jakes shepherds, however not this time.. Long before The Potter’s House in Dallas, Texas was birthed there was another Potter’s House that the prophet Jeremiah was commanded to “Go down to.” For Jeremiah verses 18:1-6 gives us an account of what God told him to do.

As Jeremiah was obedient unto God, he saw the potter “working” at the wheel. He was not idle. We must work while it is day, for when night cometh no man can work. Don’t allow distractions to come upon you to hinder the work that the Lord has assigned to “YOUR HAND” to complete. The potter was shaping from the clay was “marred” so he formed it in another pot, shaping as it seemed best to him. “Marred”, hmm, A disfiguring mark; a blemish. We all have blemishes, for none of us are perfect, yet we strive for perfection. We have been disfigured by the cares and stresses of this life.

When the Lord spoke to the prophet Jeremiah, and asked him, “CAN I NOT DO WITH YOU, ISRAEL, AS THIS POTTER DOES?” “Like the clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel.

So I say unto you this day, will you allow THE POTTER to mold you, shape you, purge you,  and renew a right spirit within you?

I AM HIS SERVANT,
