(Jeremiah 18:1-6) The Lord gave another message to Jeremiah. He said, “Go down to the potter’s shop, and I will speak to you there.” So I did as he told me and found the potter working at his wheel. But the jar he was making did not turn out as he had hoped, so he crushed it into a lump of clay again and started over. Then the Lord gave me this message: “O Israel, can I not do to you as this potter has done to his clay? As the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand.

(2 Kings 4:3-4 NLT) And Elisha said, “Borrow as many empty jars as you can from your friends and neighbors. Then go into your house with your sons and shut the door behind you. Pour olive oil from your flask into the jars, setting each one aside when it is filled.”

(Psalm 72:1-8 NLT) — Give your love of justice to the king, O God, and righteousness to the king’s son. Help him judge your people in the right way; let the poor always be treated fairly. May the mountains yield prosperity for all, and may the hills be fruitful. Help him to defend the poor, to rescue the children of the needy, and to crush their oppressors. May they fear you as long as the sun shines, as long as the moon remains in the sky. Yes, forever! May the king’s rule be refreshing like spring rain on freshly cut grass, like the showers that water the earth. May all the godly flourish during his reign. May there be abundant prosperity until the moon is no more. May he reign from sea to sea, and from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth.

A Fire Shut Up in Your Bones

(Jeremiah 20:9) - But if I say I’ll never mention the Lord or speak in His name, his word burns in my heart like a fire. It’s like a fire in my bones! I am worn out trying to hold it in! I can’t do it!

(Luke 5:5) - Simon answered, “Master, we have worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.” When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

Vs 4 - “Now go out where it is deeper, and let down your nets to catch some fish."


#1 – God wants to do something out of the ordinary for you.

#2 – What feels like the end may be the beginning.

(Galatians 6:9) And let us not be weary in well doing; for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

(2 Corinthians 1:20) For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through Him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God.

(Psalm 30:5) Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.

#3 – What feels like a little thing is often the big thing.

· If you want to change the life you have, you need to change the words you speak.


James (3) said, "We can make a large horse go wherever we want by means of a small bit in his mouth.” 


"A little small rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot chooses to go, even though the winds are strong." 


#4 - Don’t talk yourself out of what God is speaking over you!

WIN --- you have to send your words out in the direction you want your life to go!

(Numbers 11:31) Now a wind went out from the Lord and drove quail in from the sea. It brought them down all around the camp to about three feet above the ground, as far as a days walk in any direction.

#1 - Believe Bigger than the Current Conditions in Your Life.

The Bible says “Faith comes by hearing the word of God."


#2 - A Divine Shift can cause favor to come from Unlikely, even Distant places.

#3 - A Divine Shift can end a Season of Waiting and make things happen Faster than Normal.

The Bible says “those who wait on the Lord shall renew your strength.”

#4 - The Goodness of God goes beyond Sustaining us to Blessing us and others.

Don’t count yourself OUT on what God is including you IN.

(Philippians 4:19) “My God shall supply all of your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus."

(Matthew 25:40) "Whatever you did for the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."

(1 John 3:17-18) If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.

Serve others, not save others.

· Relief and restoration

· Relief is immediate temporary help during and after a crisis.

· Restoration is a long-term relationship to rebuild wholeness.


Relate with people, not rescue people.

Reach out, we never reach down.

"We've divided the world into those who need help and those who offer help. The truth is, we are both." - Brené Brown

√ LOVE Can Embrace Orphans.

(James 1:27 TPT) True spirituality that is pure in the eyes of our Father God is to make a difference in the lives of the orphans, and widows in their troubles, and to refuse to be corrupted by the world’s values.

(Psalm 82:3-4) Defend the defenseless and the forgotten, the destitute. Your duty is to deliver the poor and the powerless; liberate them from the grasp of the wicked.

√ LOVE Can Empower the Poor.

(Proverbs 19:17) "If you help the poor, you are lending to the Lord."


(1 John 3:17-18) "If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech, but with actions and in truth."


√ LOVE Can Reconcile Racism.

Dennis Leary - “Racism isn’t born folks, it’s taught.”

· A victim of hatred.


· It is taught.

· Ignorance.

(James 2:9) “If you favor some people over others, what are you doing?” You are committing a sin. He said, you are guilty of breaking the law of love.

WIN – LOVE Matters!!

Matthew 24:3) As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” 


(Matthew 24:12-15) Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations…


...and then the end will come. “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’ spoken of through the prophet Daniel--let the reader understand.” 


(Daniel 9:24-27) “Seventy ‘sevens’ are decreed for your people and your holy city…

...are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy. Know and understand this:... 


From the issuing of the decree…there be a time...to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One,


...the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty- two ‘sevens.’ 


It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble. After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be cut off and will have nothing.

The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary.


The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed. He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’ In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing [of the temple] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.” 


So I said a lot -

· √ 70 sevens = 490 years of prophecy


· √ 483 of the 490 years have been fulfilled.


· √ 49 years to rebuild the temple.


· √ 434 years later, Jesus gave His life.


· √ 7 years of prophecy yet to be fulfilled.

Daniel 12:1-4

(Daniel 12:8-13 NLT) I heard what he said, but I did not understand what he meant. So I asked, “How will all this finally end, my lord?” But he said, “Go now, Daniel, for what I have said is kept secret and sealed until the time of the end. Many will be purified, cleansed, and refined by these trials. But the wicked will continue in their wickedness, and none of them will understand. Only those who are wise will know what it means. “From the time the daily sacrifice is stopped and the sacrilegious object that causes desecration is set up to be worshiped, there will be 1,290 days (3.5 years). And blessed are those who wait and remain until the end of the 1,335 days! “As for you, go your way until the end. You will rest, and then at the end of the days, you will rise again to receive the inheritance set aside for you.” 


2 Peter 3:10-12

1. I should think clearly.

2. I will be ready for Christ’s return.


3. I should make a difference.
