Harm or Help

God said to Jeremiah go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. I went down to the potter's house and he was working. He was making a vessel of clay. It got messed up so the potter thought that he should try making it again. So the Lord said cannot I do as this potter? As the clay is in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand. (Jeremiah 18)

If that nation, against whom I have spoken turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them. If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, that I said I would benefit them. And the response was there is no hope, we will do what ever we want to do. We will, each one of us, do the imagination of our evil heart. (Jeremiah 18)

Joseph said to his brothers who had sold him into slavery; be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves for God sent me before you to preserve life. God sent me to save your lives by a great deliverance. So now it was not you that dropped me in a ditch and ultimately sold off as a slave, but God. (Genesis 45)

As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth. Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word. (John 17)

What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. So then it is not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God that shows mercy. For the scripture says unto Pharaoh, "even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth." Therefore, I, the Lord; will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and whom I harden, I will harden. (Romans 9) And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall follow after the people of God and I will be honored upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; that they may know that I am the Lord. (Exodus 14)

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the Called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8)

Exercise your authority to tread on serpents and to cast out demons. You are the head and not the tail. Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. Exercise your holy boldness.
