God has given you a destiny whcih you must strive to achieve. truly, it is up to you what becomes of your life. .
In life, you do not start with all you need, you start with all you have! And your destiny is not in God's hands. It is in your hand!
I understand that the last foregoing statement may not be in tandem with the religious hocus pocus you have heard over the years. But that does not stop it from being the truth!
If our destinies are in God's hands, then there will not be failures in life, because anything in God's hand cannot fail, and neither could the devil tamper with it! God has created you, designed your destiny, and handed it over to you to achieve. If you fail to achieve it, don't blame God.
Some people will have their destinies stolen from them by their spiritual carelessness. Some will willingly but unknowingly throw away their destiny. Some will crucify their destiny on the altars of fear and self-doubt. While some are waiting on God to achieve their destiny for them! Sorry child of God you have to achieve your destiny.
Jesus had the most unusual destiny - to be crucified on the cross as a sacrifice for the sins of the world! The Bible said "God spared not His Son..." (Rom 8:32) This means God did not change the rule because it was His son. Jesus had to achieve His destiny. When it was time for the father to forsake Him, He did exactly that! he forsook him. it was painful. But it had to be done. God is not going to cut corners for you. Get down and do the work. It is your destiny. This does not mean that He is not with you. It only means He will allow you to do what you have to do!
He said to Paul "My grace is sufficient for you" (2 Cor 12:9) As you go about your journey, no matter how difficult it becomes. Remember that His grace is sufficient for you!
