Devotional
We always think everything is luck and we can gamble through life. We feel we can just wake up one day, create or figure out a path of living, and follow it hoping to survive through it. No, it doesn’t work that way. There is this thing called destiny; it is God’s unique purpose, His special plan for our life (Jer 11:29). Our destiny is our assignment on earth; in simple terms, it is the original plan of God for us. So, whatever we do in life, and hoping to succeed in it, must be what we were destined to do.
Key Scripture
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.Ephesians 2:10 ESV
Refreshing for the Day
Your destiny is not what you want to do, it’s what God has predetermined for you to do. Trying to avert it, is disastrous. Beloved, your destiny is what God had in mind before He created you and asked you to come into this world (Jer. 1:5). And everything about you is tied to your destiny. All of them, not just one. And until you begin to unleash your destiny, you may not have access to them. The longer you wait, the longer it takes for you to accomplish them.
This is where many people get it wrong. Your destiny is an unfolding of who you really are. You don’t create your destiny; you discover it; for God has predetermined it just for you. You don’t go into a thing simply because people are doing it, and it is working for them. It may not work for you because it’s not meant for you. In fact, the ignorant of this circumstance has caused many their destinies. But until you begin to do that which you were created to do, struggle is inevitable. Stay Lifted!
Note This
Your destiny is not what you want to do, it’s what God has predetermined for you to do. Trying to avert it, is disastrous.
