Keys to fulfilling destiny.
1. REALIZE THAT YOU ARE NOT YET PERFECT
The first key to fulfilling our destiny is to realise that we are not yet perfect . The Apostle Paul realised that he still had a long way to go. Inspite of all the spiritual experiences that he had in his life he did not think that he had attained everything. Unless we realise our need and true condition, we will become complacent and self satisfied.
Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest, and repent." Says our lord
Isaiah 61:10
I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness,
as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
Jeremiah 17 :9-10
The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
“I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind, to reward each person according to their conduct, according to what their deeds deserve.â€
2. PURSUE THE PURPOSE OF GOD WITH ALL DILIGENCE
The second key to fulfilling our destiny is to pursue the purpose of God in our lives with all diligence. The Lord has chosen us and called us with a purpose . Once we become a child of God , we must press on to find out the plan of God for our lives and then pursue that plan with our whole heart . The Apostle Paul exerted all his energies to fulfill the plan of God for his life. The Apostle Paul asked two important questions when he met the Lord Jesus on the way to Damascus . The first question he asked was " who are you Lord ? " The second question that he asked was " Lord , what do you want me to do ? " These are the two vital questions that we must ask in our lives in order to fulfill our destiny.
Philippians 3:12
" ....... but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. "
Romans 7:28-29
" And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
3. FORGET THE PAST AND PRESS FORWARD TOWARD THE MARK OF THE HIGH CALLING
The third key to fulfilling our destiny is to forget the past and press on toward the goal that the Lord has given to us. As long as we are brooding over the past , we will not be able to make rapid progress towards the destiny of God for our lives . We should not be bound by our failures and sins of our past . The Lord is merciful to forgive all our sins and iniquities .He will remember them no more . Therefore we must receive forgiveness for all our sins and be cleansed by the blood of Jesus and move on forward towards fulfilling our destiny
We cannot allow our past hurts and disappointments to keep us in bondage. We must put the past behind us and press on forward towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called us in Christ Jesus. Yesterday is over and tommorow is a new day and a new opportunity to make a brand new
Isiah 43:18_19
Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
Isaiah 41:16
I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.
