TWISTING HIS HANDS at your peril

“Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?”
Isaiah 45:9
Main Text:

You need wisdom to succeed, to get the best from God and to enjoy a peaceful life on earth. Your struggle can be in vain if you refuse divine directions. God is our Father and Maker. He created you and should direct the course of your destiny if you will allow Him to that. If you are wise in your own eyes you are heading for a crash without knowing. The Bible says: “But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.” (Isaiah 64:8). If you live your life on this declaration, you can’t go astray at all.

The Bible says in the book of Jeremiah 18:6 that God’s the potter! He’s got a ready-made design for your life. That’s why you are not a failure on the earth except you accept what the devil and his cohorts have to say. The Lord your God says: “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you...” Jeremiah 29:11. He’s the Author and Finisher of your faith so He knows what you need most and how to get them supplied in due season. Stop the unholy search and ungodly peering with men of the underworld. The deeper you go and the closer you get with the world, the farther you go away from the reality of your God-given destiny

I say again, God is the potter! Stop twisting yourself in His hands. Sit still and let Him mould you into what He wants you to be. Don’t kill yourself with comparison and jealousy. Your season and time will come shortly. Let God break and re-mould you. He wants to tend and mend you before sending you. If you continue with this arrogance and self-righteousness, you will miss everything.

Prayer: I refuse to struggle with You O Lord
