RESCUING YOUR DESTINY FROM BEING CHOKED TO DEATH

There are two forces contending for your attention in life; they are God and the devil but God wins any time or day. I shared with my family during our devotion this morning that life isn't breathing, Life is God because until He entered into man (clay) he was as ordinary clay. Today we decorate our home with statute made from clay either in the form of man, animals or things; unfortunately many are nothing but decorations in their world today. It therefore follows that God in man makes all the difference.

In continuation of what I started sharing with you yesterday, permit me to share a few thorns capable of choking man's destiny. You will agree with me that this thorns have succeeded in choking many destinies till date but an end has come to that by reason of this revelation. A few of these thorns are;

 PRIDE- We are warned in scriptures that pride goes before destruction. In other words, when you see pride in the life of any man destruction is around the corner.

LOVE FOR MONEY-Scripture says it is impossible to serve two masters just as you cannot look up and down at the same time with the same eyes. Scripture also warns the the love for money is evil. Mind you, money is good but don't let it control you.

THE WORLD- When I say the world, I don not meant the globe but the acquisition of material wealth; is it therefore a sin to live large? No! Enjoy whatever God has blessed you with but not at the expense of eternity or destinies you are to help. Remember that all will be destroyed by fire in the end.

Conclusively, summarized in the three thorns I have listed above are the thorns that make destinies unfruitful and even kill them before their thereby making the grave rich. Dr. Myles Munroe of blessed memories said "strive to die empty robbing the grave and not just old". It is good to die old but dying empty is incomparably better. As I drop my pen, also note that these thorns if not control destroy/kill destinies at twenty-five while they are buried at seventy-five. Shalom.

SEE YOURSELF THROUGH OTHERS

EXPLOIT BEYOND MEASURE

The destiny of any seed is in it's ability to reproduce in a hundred fold. It is therefore not enough that it grows, it must produce in folds more than was sowed; only then can such a seed could be said to have fulfilled its destiny.

In the same vein, man is a seed and much more children of God are seeds wherever they fall as ordained by God and the main reason for such a profound ordination by the Almighty God is for everyone to bear fruits and that those should abide, John 15:16.

However in Matthew 13:22, God reveals the secret for exploits beyond measure as He went ahead to explain the parable He told of a sower; remember that the mysteries of the kingdom are given in parable and the ability to decode them are given to us His children through through the Holy Spirit. There is nothing great without a mystery behind it.

Jesus in His revelation said that the cares of this world are the devil's tools to distracting God's children from fulfilling destiny, Matt 13:22 Matt 4:8-9. If Jesus scaled through then we can too. In as much as we cannot look up and down at the same time, it is absolutely impossible to do exploits in the kingdom and focus on worldly care at the same time. We cannot serve two masters at a time; it's choice time. Choose ye this day whom you will serve; as for me I have chosen God which indirectly qualifies me for exploits beyond measures. Shalom. 

GREATNESS IS TASKY

LIFE IS FERTILE

Matthew 13 records a parable as told by Jesus Christ; it is tagged "The Parable of The Sower". He further explained the different levels of productivity. One point worthy of note is that everyone grew regardless of where the seeds fell but differed in productivity. Life generally is fertile but we need to note some factors;

The Sower: The main sower in life is man.

The Seed: The seeds are words, money, love, help, advise, encouragement etc. Everything you give is a seed; however words remain the most potent of all seeds because it delivers regardless of the ground on which it is sown if not controlled. If a positive is spoken to you, that's a blessing but if otherwise, it's a curse.

Growth and Increase: Paul planted while Apollos watered but God gives the increase, 1Cor 3:6. God doesn't fertilize negative words but life's principles does because it is written that as long as the earth remains seed time and harvest will not seize, Gen 18:22. In other words, everything that proceeds from you will always return to you.

Also, it is very important that we both note and know that life gives or delivers many folds in return for your seed, Luke 6:38. Unfortunately, life by default doesn't care whether your seed is good or bad because man has been empowered to sow good seeds.

Let me conclude by saying; life doesn't condole excuses. You will always reap whatever you sow; the wisdom here is this, that you begin to sow good seed both to destroy and replace the bad ones you are already reaping from now, also to secure your future. Those who will enjoy life will have to be wise and do all things with the consciousness that life is fertile. It is well.
