Holy 149

"On that day holy to the Lord will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, and the cooking pots in the Lord's house will be like the sacred bowls in front of the altar. Every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy to the Lord Almighty, and all who come to sacrifice will take some of the pots and cook in them. And on that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the lord Almighty."
Zechariah. 14:20-21

This scripture has personal profound significance to me- even common cooking pots will be like sacred bowls - and so labeled - HOLY TO THE LORD- this is the seal the Lord instructed me to tattoo onto the inside of my right forearm. If any of you have ever had a tattoo, you may know that the inside of the forearm is one of the most sensitive and painful areas to tattoo- the Lord showed me that this pain was necessary- endurance and perseverance, even with pain, will at times be required in our lives, stepping out of our comfort zone.
We are these vessels- common pots being remade for uncommon and holy purposes.
Do not say, "I have no gifts, no skills, I am broken and worthless - how and why would the Lord use me?"
We are entering the season where God desires to use all of us, He is searching the whole earth looking for those who are willing; He is inscribing his labeling and making us HOLY. The requirement: total surrender.
