DESTINIES
CAN CHANGE
Memorise:
Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest,
any of you should seem to come short of it. Hebrews 4:1
Read: Hebrews 3:15-19, 15 While it is said,
To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the
provocation.
16 For some,
when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by
Moses.
17 But with whom
was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose
carcases fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom sware
he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 So we see
that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
Bible in one year: Leviticus 1:1-4:12, 1st
Corinthians 3
MESSAGE
One of the privileges that being in Christ
grants to you is that your present situation and your past life cannot hinder
your God-given destiny. God has decided your destination even before you were
born. Because you are a child of destiny, you will get to your destination in
Jesus’ Name. Nevertheless, you need to know that your destiny can be changed by
God or by your attitude. God had to change His plan for eternal priestly
succession, which He has earlier promised Eli and his household. Ponder on what
God said to Eli in 1st Samuel 2:30:
“Wherefore
the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of
thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far
from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall
be lightly esteemed.”
May God never change His plan for your life,
family and ministry in Jesus’ Name!
Just as God can change His mind concerning a
promise He made to an individual or family, He can also change His mind
concerning a promise He made to a nation. In Numbers
14:26-32, God changed His mind concerning a generation of the children
of Israel .
God had brought them to the borders of the Promised Land, in readiness to
completely fulfil the promise He had made to their fathers over 400 years
before they were born. But amazingly, they refused to enter in. they did not
believe that God could complete the process He had started. God therefore
changed His mind concerning them because of their unbelief (Hebrews 3:19). God told them that they would not enter
into their destiny; rather, they would die in the wilderness, their children,
whom they thought would never enter the Promised Land, were the same ones God
now said He would take into the land. May God never change His good plans
concerning your nation in Jesus’ Name! Unbelief is a terrible thing! Every time
you fail to believe that God can do what He has promised to do, you tie God’s
hands and push Him to dump the promise He made to you. Unbelief is a slap on
God’s face. It is understandable why they cannot believe God in their current
state. However, the moment you receive Jesus, you are supposed to become a
believer. God is not happy when believers who have experienced His ability over
time, demonstrate unbelief in Him. In any way you are in unbelief, repent fast
and pull out of it!
Prayer
Point
Father,
in any way my deeds have affected Your plan for my life, have mercy on me, and
let Your original plan for my life be fulfilled.
