Encounter With Destiny


ENCOUNTER WITH DESTINY CLIP

April 14, 2024

The Good News is that every child of God has:

Ø A Glorious Destiny – Rom. 8:29-30/ 2 Pet. 1:3.

Rom 8:29-30. 29For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

 

2 Pet.1:3. 3According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:  

 

Ø A Prosperous Destiny – 2 Cor. 8:9/ Rev.5:12.

2 Cor.8:9. 9For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

 

Rev.5:12. 12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.  

 

Ø A Royal Destiny – Psa.110:1-2/ Rev. 5:9-10.

Psalms.110:1-2. 1The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. 2The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. 

Rev.5:9-10. 9And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.  

 

Ø An Enviable Destiny – Gen. 26:12-14/ Gal. 4:28.

Gen 26:12-14. 12Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him. 13And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: 14For he had possession of flocks, and possessions of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.   

 

Gal 4:28. 28Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise

 

BUT TO REALIZE AND FULFIL OUR DESTINY, ONE MUST:

Ø BE BORN AGAIN AND REMAIN SO – Jhn 3:3-5.

John.3:3-5. 3Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?  5Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.        

 

Ø BE SPIRITUALLY MINDED – Rom. 8:6/ 1 Cor. 2:12-14

Romans.8:6. 6For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.  

 

1 Cor.2:12-14. 12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.  

 

Ø BE COMMITTED TO THE LEADING OF THE SPIRIT – Isa. 48:21/ Rom. 8:14

Isaiah.48:21. 21And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.          

 

Romans.8:14. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.  

 

Ø STAY IN LOVE WITH GOD – Jhn.15:15/ 1 Cor.2:9-10

John.15:15. 15Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.        

 

1 Cor.2:9-10. 9But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 10But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

 

Ø BE COMMITTED TO CRAVING FOR INCREASING REVELATION – Isa.29:11-12/ 2Cor.3:18

Isaiah.29:11-12. 11And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed: 12And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.   

 

2 Cor.3:18. 18But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the LORD.

 

Ø BE COMMITTED TO LIFESTYLE OF PRAISE AND WORSHIP – Psa. 67:5-7/ Hab. 3:17-19

Psalms.67:5-7. 5Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. 6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. 7God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.    

 

Hab.3:17-19. 17Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: 18Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation. 19The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments. 

 

IN CONCLUSION, BELIEVERS HAVE A DESTINY OF NO LIMITS IN CHRIST; THEREFORE, EXPECT THE OPENING OF A NEW CHAPTER TO YOUR LIFE IN THIS PROPHETIC SERVICE – Pro. 4:18/ Jhn 14:12

Prov.4:18. 18But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.      

 

John.14:12. 12Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.  

 

 

Jesus is Lord!
