Words of Life|Pastor Balan Swaminathan|HIPM

• Clay has no value, but the jewel inside the clay is valuable
• God has put potential inside of us, when we develop our God given potential, people will come to know our value
• Real transformation exhibits kingdom characters as kingdom of God is within us.
• Once you experience transformation within you, transform others.

I believe the best is yet to come because
• It happened in the past & it's happening today
• If we love, believe & follow Jesus, the best is rest assured
• If we are willing to improve, the best is certain. Willing to Believe, Pray, Learn, Change & Serve.

• We are living in a world where battle never ends.
• When people around us harm us, God wants us to do two things.
• He wants us to allow Him to fight by doing good
• He wants us to ask Him to protect us by trusting in Him
• When we leave it to God, He has his own way of fighting the battle for us.

As we hear a teacup speak with respect to Jeremiah 18:1-6 this is what God is teaching us.
• As the clay is in the hands of the potter, we are in the hands of God.
• God knows what He is doing in our lives, so don't be too concerned about your life.

• Some of you maybe standing in front of a closed door.
• God is telling you that don't wait for a closed door to open. It's not going to open, you need to move ahead.
• Some of you may be looking for another door to open.
• God is telling you to keep an eye for an open door. God is going to open a new door for you soon.

Final thoughts:
• Our lives began in the past (eternal past) even before we were formed.
• Our lives are not going to be done even when we leave this earth.
• Life is valuable, it must be protected, other lives matter, this life must be used to bless others and to bring glory & honor to our creator.

Today if your life is boring, dull and with no motivation certainly there is something missing. Ask the following questions.
1. Am I saved
2. Am I doing something to save others

• When we approach God in prayer and found self-righteous, our prayer is not going to be heard.
• Even if we fast and regularly tithe, if our attitude is not right, our prayer is not going to be heard.
• Our prayer will be heard only when we humble ourselves realizing our sinfulness

• Pray for you and for those who are affected by injustice caused to them
• God wants His people to cry out to God day and night, until we see justice
• If you continue to persist on God asking according to His will, even if it delays, it will certainly come.

In this sermon of the Prayer series we learn,
• God wants us to be persistent in our prayer for the right motives that are according to the will of God.
• Many things in life won't happen automatically unless we persist in prayer.
