UK NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER - The Potter’s Wheel

The Lord said, “Can I not do with you, Israel, as this potter does?” declares the Lord. “Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel. Jeremiah 18:6 .......then how much more the Lord can say this to every other nation on the face of the earth...including the UK.

Are we not clay taken up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay" (Ps. 40:1-2 and for centuries had foundations centred on the Word of God and Christ.

The political turmoil which has engulfed the UK Parliament is a symptom of a much deeper problem - what we really need as a nation is to return to the Lord Himself.....and we would find the answers.

And in case anyone doesnt know or remember what a nation looks like centred on the Word of God.........

King George VI called for a National Day of Prayer in May 1940, when British troops were trapped at Dunkirk, about to be annihilated. People queued to get into Westminster Abbey so they could fall to their knees and pray. the population in millions went to local churches and chapels which were so full that congregations had to stand in churchyards or pour out onto the street. And the King made a broadcast to the nation, urging people to repent and turn to the Lord. A storm arose over Dunkirk which grounded the Luftwaffe, and the English Channel became a sea of tranquility which allowed hundreds of boats, large and small to rescue 336,000 soldiers. And so the miracle was sent by God, and the multitudes gave thanks and praise for their deliverance.
