OVERCOMING DESTINY DESTROYERS (2)

In the last write-up, we looked at what destiny means and we saw that each and everyone of us has a destiny to fulfull to make this world a better place for all.It is painful to note however that not everyone fulfills God's purpose for their lives. We will start looking at the enemies of destiny and how to overcome them in our lives. The first among these enemies is ignorance. In Hosea 4:6, God was saying that His people perished for lack of knowledge or ignorance. If someone is unaware or ignorant of the destiny that God wants him to fulfill or the purpose of God for his life, such an individual is not likely to set goals on how to achieve this destiny.He or she is likely to live his or her life carelessly. They will not discover the gifts or aptitudes that God gave them; and where they discover them, they will not make maximum use of the gifts or aptitudes and they will not attain the level that God has designed for them In Mathew 25:14-29, the man who collected one talent despis...

OVERCOMING DESTINY DESTROYERS

Today we shall start looking at the topic "Overcoming Destiny Destroyers" 1. What is Destiny? Destiny can be called our divine decree or fate. It can also be called the purpose of God for creating each and everyone of us. Everyone of us has a destiny to fulfill on earth. This is obvious from Jeremiah chapter one verse five. The destiny or purpose that God has for everyone of us is very good Jeremiah 29:11. We are able to know that God's purpose for us is good because He created us in His own image. When Adam and Eve sinned against Him in the garden of Eden, He did not destroy them, rather He killed an animal to make atonement for their sins. He also made a promise of a saviour who would come and destroy the serpent ie the devil who caused man to sin against God. Jesus is that saviour. He came principally  to reconcile man back to God and destroy all works of the devil. Mathew 1:21, Hebrew 2:14. John the Baptist was sent to prepare the way for Jesus who is the saviour of ...

PERSONAL QUIET TIME PART TWO

This segment will highlight the activities that we can carry out when we choose to have personal quiet time with the Lord. Some of the activities are as listed below:- 1. Praying:-All the examples of people we mentioned, who had quiet time, prayed during their quiet time. We also must pray when we have our quiet time. we should thank God for everything He has done for us, we need to confess any sin that will prevent us from enjoying His blessings and we should ask God for specific things which we want from Him. Genesis 25:21, Mathew 7:7-11 2.  Bible Reading: During our quiet time, we must read our bibles. When we read the bible, we will know the mind of God and God can speak to us in His word. Joshua 1:8 3. Meditation: We have to think about what we have read in the bible. This is what it means to meditate. As  we meditate, we get revelations about what we have read and we grow spiritually by doing so. 4. Writing down what we have learnt for the day:- This is very importan...

PERSONAL QUIET TIME PART ONE

I will attempt to discuss the issue of quiet time among christians in two or three instalments. This is the first installment. 1. What do i mean by a personal quiet time? Personal quiet time is a term used to describe regular individual christian activities such as prayers, private meditations and Bible study.It is a time set aside in a certain place where an individual can be alone with the Lord. It is different from fellowship meeting we have with other members of the church or our families. It is more or less a one-on-one meeting between a person and God Almioghty. In Psalm 46:10, God commanded us to be still in His presence. Jesus taught us to have a quiet time before God (Mathew 6:6). He advised us to go into our closet, close the door and pray to God, and that God who sees in secret will answer us openly. Observing quiet time did not start today. It has been around for a long time. Let us look at examples of people in the Bible, who had quiet time (a) Isaac Genesis 24:63: He a...
