A vessel can be a container of liquid.Biologically, a vessel is a tube or canal that carries fluid in animal, human or plant.A vessel can be traced biblically as an instrument of use in the hands of the Father, as we are aware that an earthen vessel is made by a potter who is at discretion to mold the vessel whichever way he pleases,so also our Father can mold our lives anyway He chooses in order to make us vessels unto honor and worthwhile in His house (Jeremiah 18:3-6).
A chosen vessel is an instrument in the hands of the Lord to deliver His message accordingly and strictly, as a vessel is usually known to be a container of water, or any other liquid for home use,so also if we make ourselves available to the Father, he is keen to fill us up to the brim with the words of Life and truth such that as people take water from earthen vessel for use, people will begin to take from us the words of Life deposited in us by the Father which can never run dry.
In the book of (Acts 9:15-20), we were shown how Saul who was a persecutor of Christians met with the Everlasting Father and his encounter was such that he eventually became a preacher of the word.All of these happened because he was a chosen vessel.
Finally, our Father is not a discriminator of any individual he chooses to mold as he is even known to remold any broken vessel as in the case of Saul above who later turned Paul and a very useful one in the kingdom.However, there are vessels unto honor and vessels unto dishonor.we can only be vessels unto honor by sanctifying and getting ready for the Father's use,fleeing from iniquities,youthful lusts and making ourselves guarded and guided by the Spirit of the Living God.(2 Timothy 2:20-21).
