     | 28,616 views

    God formed us, shaped us, like a master potter. Do we trust Him? When He directs our path, do we make excuses why we can’t do it, or do we walk boldly along that path in faith? God didn’t create you to be the centerpiece on a display shelf… He created you as a clay pot to be useful for His kingdom!

    Before the anointing was released at the start of Jesus ministry, He was baptized. “When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptized; and while He prayed, the heaven was opened.” (Luke 3:21 NIV) Baptism symbolizes death. The spices that made up the Anointing Oil ...read more
