Bible reading:1 Sam. 9:5-27, 10:1
Memory verse: “When Moses’ hands grew tired, they took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it. Aaron and Hur held his hands up-one on one side, one on the other-so that his hands remained steady “Exodus 17:10(NIV)
Destiny is from the word ‘destination’. Our destiny is God’s ultimate destination for our life. This is what God desire our life to be at the end of our years on earth. Below are some of the list of people you must meet in life that would keep you to fulfil God’s ultimate purpose for your life.
- The Encouragers: Even in discouraging situations of life, these people keep you going with encouraging words. Example is the servant who encouraged Saul to meet with Prophet Samuel before turning back from the search of his father’s lost ass. Saul in the process was anointed as king (1 Sam. 9:5-27, 10:1).
- The Hand Lifters: They are those whose hands are strong enough to hold yours up when you are weak. May you meet them E.g. are Aaron & Hur who lifted up the hand of Moses in the battle against the Amalekites (Exo.17:8-16).
- Destiny Helpers: They provide shoulders upon which you rest on to fulfilling your dream and destiny. Example, Apostle Paul was a shoulder upon which Timothy, the young Bishop leaned upon in destiny (1 Tim.4-5).
- The Givers: These ones will give their time, talent, and treasure to you in your hour of need. May you meet them. Examples are your Parents, teachers & godly friends.
- The Receivers: These ones are different from routine takers and serial beggars. You can’t be blessed if you don’t give, and you can’t give if there is no one to receive. It is not every land that brings forth fruits, and not all hands receive commanded blessings. You need those whose receiving hands will trigger abundant blessings unto you. Elijah’s hand triggered the outflow of blessings for the widow of Zarephath (1Kings 17:8-16).
Quote: We are where we are because of the people we meet or the people we miss.
Prophetic Word: Physical and spiritual resources needed to fulfil destiny in a grand style shall flow into your life, in Jesus name.
Prayer point:
- Destiny helpers from the four corners of the earth, come to me today, in Jesus name.
- Holy Spirit, compel destiny helpers to favour me, in the name of Jesus.
