The Potter and His Clay (Jeremiah 18-19)
God breaks our old life to make it new, and molds our new life to make it His.
1. God molds our new life (Jer. 18)
– We want to be open and receptive to God molding us like clay. (1-10)
– Our obedience to God does matter, because His people obey Him. (11-17)
– When we’re mistreated, we pray for God’s will to be done. (18-23)
2. God breaks our old life (Jer. 19)
– God is patient, but will stop us from continuing to disobey Him. (1-5)
– God knows what we need to be restored, even if it’s extreme. (6-9)
– We let God break our old life like a jar, to form a new life in Him. (10-15)
