VARIOUS POTS - WHICH VESSEL ARE YOU?
I had a vision where I saw
a minister climbing the stairs on the back of a huge outdoor
stadium in Argentina. It was very steep incline. He had a
large basket of people’s donations on his shoulders. They
were the sacrifices of the Lord’s people and he was being
used to collect them. I saw other woman who had their own
baskets that were doing the same thing in the back of the
stadium. I heard the minister begging the Lord. He said,
“Lord just let me preach. If You want me to preach (a
deceased prophet’s) messages from for the rest of my life, I
will. Just let me preach!” When I heard him pray that, I
sensed that the minister was carrying people’s offerings as
a priest unto the Lord but he was really wanting to be in
the Lord’s Presence on the stage and preaching the Word of
the Lord. I heard the Lord respond, “Is that what you want
to preach - someone else’s sermons?”
Later in a vision I was
looking over the tops of many preachers. Then I heard a
conversation of several. Someone was saying I am a Holy
Ghost bouncer, I throw the devil out of regions.
Someone responded, I do
not want to do that. Ask him what he had to eat? Cow’s
dung. Results are birth defects. We need His Blood and
mercy for our bloodlines.
Then I heard yet another
person say, Count it all joy and he was exclaiming it was
the Lord’s will that he enter into tribulations. I heard
the other respond, What he had to go by. Faith. I don’t
want to do that either.
James 1:2-3 My brethren,
count it all joy when you fall into various temptations; 3
Knowing this, that the trying of your faith works patience.
I heard the Lord say, Yes
discern everything. Even the bad ones. I saw a bunch of
pigs laying down on their sides. This is not My will for
you. This is My house, the Word of the Lord.
I saw a bunch of
blackened pots that had been well used from the past. They
were all benched on a shelf. This is not My will for you.
Yes I want you to preach. Creator. Some have been chosen
for a season. Some for a life time. Which message are you?
I heard someone respond, God wants me to restore.
Romans 9:20-21 Nay but, O
man, who are you that replies against God? Shall the thing
formed say to him that formed it, Why have you made me thus?
21 Has not the potter power over the clay, of
the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another
unto dishonor?
After seeing the pots I
thought I had remembered Bonnie Jones had a vision some time
ago of old pots but I didn’t remember what the message was
about. I heard the phrase, I miss him so badly. I
got very homesick for Bob as I heard that.
The people of God are
reserved and feel as though they have been left alone. Do
you understand? I heard a crowd say a resounding YES. The
past is behind, up and out. People’s passions and hunger.
They are crying out, we are so dry. They walked into the
new. God uses strange ways. I saw a pile of handkerchiefs
that had been washed white. I will use them as glory rags.
I came to your house. Holy Spirit.

POT VISION
www.bobjones.org
In a vision I was shown
different color and sized cooking pots being distributed to
a multitude of people. Many of these pots were large like
the kind you would cook stew in while others were smaller.
Perhaps the size used for cooking spaghetti noodles. Some of
these pots were brand new while others were old and badly
dented and worn. Several pots were blackened from being on
the fire too often or too long. I began prophesying to the
people concerning their pots.
All of these pots came
directly from the Master Potter Himself. Each one arrived at
its destination clean and shiny and waiting to be utilized.
The current condition of these pots were determined by its’
owners use. Some of them were still in their wrapper because
their owner never opened the package. They were unwilling or
afraid to use the gift God had given them and explore the
gifts of the Holy Spirit. Others were unwrapped but barely
used and therefore sat on a shelf still looking new but were
literally useless. Fear of man and timidity set in the
owner’s heart allowing their soul to rule over their spirit.
Then there were ones that
were dinged and dented. They looked like they had been
through a war. As a matter of fact, they had been through
many, many battles of war and came out victorious. They
triumphed over the enemy and had the battle scars to prove
it. Their owners were valiant and brave and fought the good
fight of faith.
I saw many that were
blackened and full of soot from being on the open fire.
Their owners chose to stay the course. When the battle got
extremely hot they girded up their loins and marched forward
into battle. They overcame the enemy by the blood of the
Lamb and the word of their testimony. They feared not their
life and unto the death they chose to stay in the furnace.
All are called, but few choose to stay in the furnace.
For many are called, but
few chosen.” (Matthew 20:16b)
The owner’s calling or
anointing determined the size of their pot. Some were called
to do little while others were called to do much. Therefore
the greater the anointing, the bigger the pot. I took notice
of their many different colors. Each color represented their
anointing; blue for revelation, red for mercy, white for
righteousness and silver for sanctification.
There were also new cooking
pots being distributed to the owners that stayed the course
and chose to stay in the fire. Their old pot was hanged up
as a badge of honor and they were now being issued new ones.
My new cooking pot was very large white with red trim and
had a lid to match. Therefor I am called to lead others the
way of righteousness and truth in this next season and the
Father is my covering.
My questions to you are: what
color is your cooking pot? Has it been unwrapped yet? Does
it still look brand new or is it being used? Is it dinged
and dented or perhaps burned by the fire? It’s always our
decision to stay in the fire or turn back when the going
gets tough.
The last will be first
because they are the ones who choose to stay the course
while the first will be last because they are the ones who
turned and walked away.
So the last will be first,
and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen.” (Matthew 20:16)
Be encouraged because the
Master Potter is polishing His wares. He’s an equal
opportunity employer that plays no favorites. But He pays
close attention to those who choose to follow after Him with
a whole heart.
WORD TO PONDER: WHICH
VESSEL ARE YOU? 6/16/16
Beloveds I have created you
for My purpose. Please do not wrestle with the way I AM
forming you for use. I use vessels of dishonor and vessels
of honor. All have a distinct purpose in My kingdom. What
is My purpose for you dear one? I have chosen you to
RESTORE what has fallen. Yes you shall preach My Word in
power and glory. Yes you shall help restore all that has
fallen. I will use all your tears and even handkerchiefs as
glory rags, washed white and clean. My glory shall be upon
all that you touch and you shall heal, deliver and restore
My people. Be content now to be My priest bearing up many
people and also their sacrifices. Through your humble
service, bring them to Me with your prayers, faith and
compassion. Let My will and purposes work through you in
each season in your life.
Romans 9:20-21 Nay but, O
man, who are you that replies against God? Shall the thing
formed say to him that formed it, Why have you made me thus?
21 Has not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump
to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?
Amos 9:11 In that day will
I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close
up its breaches; and I will raise up its ruins, and I will
rebuild it as in the days of old:
Malachi 3:3 And he shall
sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify
the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that
they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.
