I feel as if I m a vessel created for destruction. Please please please pray that God will change His mind & redeem me. I didn’t do anything I did with a high hand (intentionally). I will do anything to be forgiven. I want to know Jesus. Please I didn’t understand.
Please everyone pray

Ask Him for forgiveness. You sound desperate for Him and He knows it. Ask forgiveness. Repent(turn away) from whatever sin is holding you down. Get into His Word. Read it. Listen to it. Pray it. Keep praying. Cry out to your Father. He didn’t create you for bad. He created you because He loves you.

2 Peter 3:9 indicates the answer to be "no".
"The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance."

I am praying.... and I would recommend reading the near death experience account of former Skeptic Howard Storm. It is unlikely that you are in a worse mess than Howard was in at the first part of his near death experience.

Paul doesn't say that God created some vessels for destruction. This is what the passage says:
You have to read the context of Romans 9, which explains that God extended His righteousness to the Gentiles by faith, not according to the law.
Paul concludes chapter 9 with this:
Romans 9:22 (AMP)--What if God, although fully intending to show [the awfulness of] His wrath and to make known His power and authority, has tolerated with much patience the vessels (objects) of [His] anger which are ripe for destruction?
You have to read the context of Romans 9, which explains that God extended His righteousness to the Gentiles by faith, not according to the law.
Paul concludes chapter 9 with this:
What should we say then? Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained righteousness — namely the righteousness that comes from faith. But Israel, pursuing the law for righteousness, has not achieved the righteousness of the law. Why is that? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone. As it is written:
Look! I am putting a stone in Zion to stumble over
and a rock to trip over,
yet the one who believes on Him
will not be put to shame.
You were NOT created or appointed to wrath! I pray that you will come to understand God's grace--His saving and sustaining power--in your life!Look! I am putting a stone in Zion to stumble over
and a rock to trip over,
yet the one who believes on Him
will not be put to shame.
