MISSED DESTINY

                                                   

Once upon a time, there were a set of beautiful twins upon the face of the earth. The elder was a hunter while the other was a kitchen boy. As usual, the eldest went to the bush to hunt, one day he came back very hungry and couldn’t control his hunger. He asked the younger broad for a meal of porridge. The younger one gave him a condition to sell his birth right. The eldest son felt the birth right was just a mere word, it was just irrelevant after all they are twins. He agreed to his brother’s terms and conditions and sold his birthright for food. Now their father was about to die and has to place his blessings on the elder son. The father asked the elder to go get him some good meat so that he can be blessed. As the elder son ran out to get the meat, the younger son took the advantage and provided the meat for the father. And because the birth right has already been exchanged, the father has to obey destiny and natural law thus He lost his ability to recognize his sons. He gave the blessing to the younger one instead. When the elder one arrived and discovered what happened he became furious. (Gen 27:34)
This is a story from the bible about Esau and Jacob which we know. I am here to open your eyes to see how you have missed your destiny somehow and somewhere in your life.

Firstly, people miss their destiny because of lack of self control. How much self discipline do you have in your life? Do you let your body/flesh/feelings control you or you allow God’s spirit to control u. As many that are led by God are the sons of God. You must discipline yourself. Train your body to obey God’s laws for his commandments are not grievous. (Matt 11:29-30)

Secondly, have you used your mouth to sell your destiny? The elder brother felt he can say anything with his mouth after all the mother and father knows that he is the elder son. Some many people have this ‘I DON’T CARE‘attitudes. They don’t see anything as wrong. To them, ‘I say what makes me happy’. I say what I like. After all there is freedom of speech. Now I must tell you that he who guides his tongue guide his destiny. Proverbs: 29:20: Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words?  There is more hope for a fool than for him. It is not everybody that you tell your problems or future plans. It is not all friends that like you, some of them are unfriendly friends. Be careful. Hear more and speak less.
Again there was a little boy called Joseph who was sold by his brothers to slavery, because He shared his dreams with them. The master loved him and gave the whole of his belongings to Joseph to oversee and one day the master’s wife fell in love with this little boy and asked him to sleep with her. Joseph refused because he feared the Lord and didn’t want to betray his master’s trust. At the end he was thrown into the prison after the master’s wife framed him up. The same Joseph became the prime minister of the kingdom.(Gen 41:41-44)

Thirdly, some have missed their destiny because of lust of the flesh, sexual desires, bad companions (life partners, friends). So many girls have died as a result of sleeping with occultist, sugar-daddies, Aristos, contracted deadly diseases. So men have been bound by their girlfriends who they had promised to marry but never married. Whatever is the cause, Ask God to see you through, don’t let sexual urge destroy your destiny. As a young boy or girl, flee from fornication, some had had unwanted pregnancy, series of abortions which destroyed their lives/destinies. Run from pre-marital sex. Imagine if Joseph had slept with the master’s wife, I am so sure he wouldn't have become the prime minister of the kingdom. Also Elisha’s servant, Gehazi missed his destiny because of lust of the flesh, money and worldly pleasures and became a leper instead of a priest.(2kings 5;23-27)

Furthermore, some youth have missed their destiny because they lack the fear of God. The bible says that the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. It is God who created you and has the power to rule and fulfil your destiny. If you lack the fear of God, the devil would have all liberty to rule over your destiny.
For you to have a fulfilled destiny, you must surrender fully to Christ. Jesus is the only way. John 14:6. Only Christ can assure you of a fulfilled destiny. Read the scriptures daily, in it lies the keys to successful destiny. Matt 6:33, Joshua 1:8. It is in God’s word you find wisdom and power to fulfil your destiny and overcome destiny destroyer-SIN. And you must worship in a living church. Don’t miss your destiny, God created you for a purpose. You are not created to be a looser, neither a failure. Poverty is never in God’s agenda for you (Jer 29; 11). Hand over your life to God now and be assured of a fruitful destiny. Prov 4:18. Jesus wants the best for you.

You can say this prayer with your mouth.
Father Lord, I come to you today as a sinner, I believe Jesus died for my sins and that you raised him up on the third day, forgive my sins. I accept Jesus as my personal Lord and saviour. Thank you Lord for forgiving me. In Jesus’ name.
Congratulations, you are now a child of God. Your destiny shall never be missed in Jesus name.

Fulfilling Christmas?

T oday is December 25 th , the long-awaited Christmas day. A day where everyone rejoices and celebrate in unison. There had not been any day like this where the whole world, whether Greek or Jew, white or black, Muslim or Christian, celebrate in unity. Indeed, this must be a special day. The world as we know enjoy celebration even in the midst of suffering, greed, poverty, lack and high political and economic tension. On a day like this virtually everyone pretends all is well just to have a full grasp of the day. Yes. All is well but is all really well? On a day like this, I spend more time resonating about the 358days which has gone by. I realised that I have lost many friends, made new friends, attended funerals, attended naming ceremonies. I have seen terrible accidents and I have even been involved in some. But yet I am standing. Oh, I didn’t die? Yea. But why didn’t I die? Am I better than those who died or lost one part of their body? The answer is No! Life is all abo...
