• Guided by the Spirit | John 16:1-15 | Shine Thomas

  John 13-17 is called the upper room discourse. This covers one night of Jesus’ discourse. Jesus has these final words to give to his close followers. This is the night before his arrest, crucifixion and trial. Jesus is telling them that he is leaving. He is going away from them. After his ascension, the way that Jesus is going to be with his disciples is going to change. Jesus is going to be with them through the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is God and the Holy Spirit is someone who comes alongside another person to help and to guide them. It is like someone helping an old person to cross the street. Jesus is saying there’s a new character (a character who as with me from eternity past, the Holy Spirit who was already there) is coming into the story. Jesus can be in one place in one time. He’s in the room with them twelve. They can all hear Him, but He, if the Jesus Movement is going to spread and if Jesus is going to become a personal reality and presence to every one of His followers, He has to go and He has to come and be with them in a different way than He has been up to this point.

  In John 13-17, John records for us the final words of Jesus before his arrest and crucifixion. Jesus spoke to them that they will receive the Holy Spirit in John 14. The Spirit will be their teacher and will maintain His presence with them. But they have a job to do as well. Their job is to remain or abide in him.

• In the Hands of the Master Potter! | Jeremiah 18: 1-6 | Rev. Samuel T. Koshy

  In today's sermon, titled "In the Hands of the Master Potter," we delve into the powerful imagery presented in Jeremiah 18:1-6 (NIV). This passage provides a profound metaphor of God as the potter and His people as the clay, illustrating His sovereign control and loving guidance in shaping our lives. Key Points Covered: The Master Potter's Vision: God has a purpose for each of us, just as a potter envisions a vessel before shaping it. Our lives are not accidents; we are created with intention and destiny. The Master Potter's Method: Life's circumstances are like the wheel turning under the potter's hand, shaping us through trials and challenges. Romans 8:28-29 reminds us that God works all things for good, conforming us to the likeness of His Son. The Master Potter's Faithfulness: Despite our imperfections and failures, God persists in molding us into vessels of honor. His love and commitment are unwavering, ensuring our growth and transformation. Illustrations from Scripture: Exodus 15: God as a triumphant warrior. 1 Samuel 8: God as a just king. Job: God as the master architect. Psalms 23 & 95: God as a shepherd and the rock of our salvation. Hosea: God as a faithful husband. In this message, we explore how God, the Master Potter, uses every circumstance to shape us, emphasizing His control, care, and ultimate purpose for our lives. We are reminded of the importance of surrendering to His will, trusting that He is shaping us for His glory and our good.1
