Shalom Kingdom citizens, Last month I told you about the process of making wine; it is poured from one vessel to another vessel and emptied. The process goes on until the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life are all settled on the bottom and plucked by God, so that we can be used by Him.

Shalom Kingdom citizens, It is a very clear theme: Re-shaping. You can see the vessel on my left hand. It came from a long way, from China to Ubud, Bali. We know there are the potter’s fingerprints on it. Before it has the shape like this, it must have been broken several times and re-shaped. So if you believe you are in the Potter’s hand, you should be calm, do not get stressed or worried.

Shalom Kingdom citizens, We are entering a very interesting theme, i.e. Re-shaped. Whatever happens in our life is not a coincidence, but it has a purpose of God. When I was little, I used to visit my grandfather’s house in Probolinggo, and there was a ceramic factory nearby. Therefore, I knew clearly how to make ceramic vessels, how to make them shine and how they were molded on the potter’s table.

Shalom Kingdom citizens, I just shared last week that if a person failed to know God’s plan and to re-align, the result would be fatal like the case of Jonathan the son of Saul. However, we can see a person who did not fail to understand. 1 Samuel 22 tells us about the priests of Nob that were murdered by Saul because of the betrayal of Doeg, the Edomite.
