The Sovereignty of God | Jeremiah 18 | Pastor William Hixson

God is the potter and you are the clay - be what He made you to be, and you won't be broken into shards by your maker. Isaiah 64:8 - "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". Jeremiah 18:6 - "O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand". 2 Timothy 2:20-21 - "Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for honorable use, some for dishonorable". Romans 9:21 - "Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?".
