‘If The Husband Dies.’
1 Corinthians 7:39-40.
Here is some more of God’s counsel offered by Apostle Paul to the early (Corinthian) Church which could also be of help to us today.
a) The wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives.
b) If the husband dies then she is free to marry anyone she wishes to.
c) The new husband should be a True Believer.
d) Paul’s opinion is that she would probably be happier if she did not remarry.
e) When he wrote this Apostle Paul sensed this advice was from the Holy Spirit.
(This QT shows me what may happen to the wife If The Husband Dies)

‘At The Potter’s House.’
Jeremiah 18:1-6.
a) Jeremiah 18:1. This was a Word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord.
b) Jeremiah 18:2. Jeremiah was to arise and go down to the potter’s house where the Lord had said to him that He would speak to him.
c) Jeremiah 18:3. Jeremiah wisely obeyed the Lord and there was the potter at work in his house.
d) Jeremiah 18:4. When the potter made an imperfect pot he put it back on his wheel and remoulded it.
e) Jeremiah 18:5. Then the Word of the Lord came to Jeremiah.
f) Jeremiah 18:6. The Lord deals with His People as the potter deals with his pots.
(Through this Second one I confess that I am At The Potter’s House)

Jeremiah wisely obeyed the Lord. It is always wise, whoever we are, to obey the Lord. The place of Obedience is a very safe place to be in. When the Lord speaks to us we should obey Him.
