Walking In Your Destiny

Jeremiah 29:11-13  For I know the thoughts that I  think toward you, says the LORD,
thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you  an expected end.
 Then  shall you call upon me, and you shall go and pray unto me,  and I will hearken unto you. And you shall seek me, and find me, when you shall  search for me with all your heart.

Enemies of Destiny: Our Plan, Overriding God's Plan
God has a plan and a destiny for our life, but our plan can get in the way of His plan. 
Our plan can sound so good, and we can even convince many to follow us down that
road. The problem comes when we find out; we can't convince God to follow us. 

Many are frustrated in the body of Christ, because they have lost the joy of serving their heavenly Father. 


They woke up one day and suddenly  realized that they missed a turn in Gods plan for them. Instead of going the  direction God was leading, they followed the path of least resistance. They  bowed to popular opinion; they succumbed to the latest fade, 
or went with the  majority even when it felt like they were leaving the plan of God.

Many great men of God have found themselves in this place of  frustration.  King David took several wrong turns, but his heart of repentance  toward God got him back on track. Peter denied he even knew Jesus, but we serve  a God of restoration. A man that has not taken a wrong turn is a man that has  never stepped out for God. If you have served God any length of time you know  that what I am saying is true. Great men know how to humble themselves when they have gotten out of the will of God. They look up to heaven and cry for correction, they admit their mistake and watch God move them into His will.

“The  low way is your way, the Highway is Gods Way”.


Fear of  Failure

It took me five years to write my first book. I had the fear of failure! 


What if  people don’t buy it? What if people don’t agree with it? What if I can’t get it  published? What made me so smart, that I think others will benefit from my writing? Satan was sitting on my shoulder and stealing my destiny. God had called me to write this book, God had put the words in my belly, and Satan was doing his very best to abort the plan of God. One day God ask me a
question, “Who is writing this book, you or me”? I realized that it is not I, but Christ that lives in me! My fear came from leaning on my own understanding and not trusting God enough. If I wrote the book I was in
trouble, but if God wrote the book through me I would be alright. God and I completed the book, and many
lives  have been touched by the words found within its pages, “Glory Be To God”.


Past
Failures


So many people are looking into their rearview mirror, and missing their destiny. They don’t know where they are going because they are too busy beating themselves up over past failures. Anytime there is a gleam of hope, they destroy  it
by looking back. “Remember the last time I stepped out”! “Remember the last  time I trusted somebody”.  “I didn’t graduate”. 

“I am not ordained”. I finished  last in my class”. 


The rearview mirror is full of reasons why God would never  use us, but that is a lie from hell! God is God, because He makes the crooked  road straight. God takes our mess and makes a message out of it. 

God takes our  brokenness and forms a masterpiece out of it.


Destiny must be birthed in Gods presence:

You will not find your destiny in the soulish realm.

1 Corinthians 2:14  But  the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are
foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are
spiritually discerned.


Making decisions in the  natural is like looking for a needle in a hay stack: Your life is now based on  luck and chance, rather
than divine guidance! Now we are left with rolling the  dice and hoping we don't hit snake eyes.


We are fighting an enemy that we can't see with our natural eye, but God can. In the natural 
we will punch ourselves silly, trying to defeat something we cannot see in the natural.

God has prepared things 
for us that will not be attained by natural means!


1 Corinthians 2:9-13
But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into  the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love  him. 
But God has revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches  all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man,  except the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knows no  man, but the Spirit of God. Now 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. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's  wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Spirit teaches; comparing spiritual things  with spiritual.

We are seeking Gods perfect will for our life: Hollywood does not have that revelation...1-800 psychic hotline 
does not have that revelation...Your dictionary does not have that revelation...


Romans 8:5-8 
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are  after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death;  but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is  enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can  be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.


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


It is possible to be out of the spirit on the Lords day! John received revelation as he was caught up  in the spirit!

Revelation 1:9-11
I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom  and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the  word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. I was in the Spirit on
the  Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, Saying, I am  Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What you see, write in a book, and  send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto  Smyrna, and unto Pergamum, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.


John could not stand in His presence! Your problems can not stand in His presence! Everything must
bow  to Him! Sickness, poverty, addiction, doubt, fear, disappoint etc..


Revelation 1:17
 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, 

saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

God has a destiny for each one of us, His way will bear much fruit, 
His way will reveal the greatness  God has placed on the inside of you!


BEING LED  BY THE SPIRIT

I remember Joyce Meyers saying  one time, I was not led by the Spirit in my early years of ministry; God had to  drag me.

We form habits before we are  saved, that are hard to break. We are used to making our own decisions and  calling our own shots. When we get saved and we are told that the children of  God are led by the Spirit of God. Rom 8:14 This can be quite an adjustment from  our former days.

One of the greatest days of my 
life, was the day I looked up to heaven and made this statement, 

"I HAVE RUN MY  OWN LIFE FOR 27 YEARS, AND I AM READY TO SEE IF YOU CAN DO ANY
BETTER THAN I  HAVE DONE". God took me up on my offer and I am glad He did!

  We can surrender in one area of our life and refuse to yield in another. I was doing  pretty good when it came to my personal life, but I was trying to drive the  ministry in my own strength and knowledge. I would come up with a plan and  expect God to help me pull it off. I found out quick, that unless the Lord  builds the house we labor in vain.

That is why we  birth so many ishmaels, and do not see Gods promise come to pass. His promise is  sure but it takes more time. His promise is
true but it takes more trust in Him,  and less trust in you. His promise is ordained and when He does it, 
instead of  you; He will get the glory instead of you.

Jesus said  follow me and I will make you fishers of men. Mat. 4:19  
When we are led, we  have a promise that we will bear fruit. When we are led we will be productive, 
 and we will be about the Fathers business. We will be busy with His affairs,  instead of our own.

Being led is  quite easy! You follow Gods orders, instead of telling God what you are going to  do. 
Jesus said He did not do His own will, but He did the will of His Father in  Heaven.

This lifestyle  will cost you more time on your knees, but in the long run it will save you from 
wasting many years doing dead works. God is a lot better pilot, than a  copilot!

HEARING THE
VOICE OF GOD

Have you  ever wondered if what you heard was from God?

Or was it  your thought; or was it a thought from satan.

If we were all honest, we would admit that discerning the voice of God can be at the least, a challenge. I am not going to tell you that I have
mastered the art of hearing the voice of God, but over the years I have learned some principles that  have helped.

Relationship.... When you hang around someone, you  become familiar with their voice.

You can be in one room and this  person can be in the other and you will know it is
them. You can be thousands of  miles away and pick up a telephone; when the
other party answers; if you have  spent time with them you will know it is them.
I know you are thinking what  about Peter; he confronted Jesus and thought he
was helping, only to get  rebuked. Satan has a way of making you think it is
your idea and we must line up  every thought with the Word of God... 

Matthew
16:23  But he turned,  and said unto Peter, Get you
behind me, Satan: you are an offense unto  me
: for you consider not
the things that be of God, but those that be of  men.


  • When a thought comes we must line it  up with the personality of God.
    His Word reveals His personality. 
    When we hide His Word in our hearts we shield
    ourselves from the lies of the  enemy. Any thought that exalts itself against
    the knowledge of God must be cast  down...  

  • 2 Corinthians 10:4-6   (For the weapons of our warfare are not
    carnal, but mighty through God to the  pulling down of strong holds;) 
    Casting down imaginations, and every high  thing that exalteth itself against
    the knowledge of God,
    and bringing into  captivity every thought to the
     obedience of Christ;  And having in a readiness  to revenge all disobedience,
     when your obedience is  fulfilled.

  • There is no better teacher than experience.

  • As you step out and obey what you feel is the voice of God, time will  reveal which voice it really was. God
    is not going to kick you out of the  kingdom because you miss it. I would rather miss it 
  • doing something in the  kingdom of God; than to sit in the fear of missing
    God and end up doing nothing.  We have this promise we can hold on to...

    John 10:27  My sheep  hear my
    voice
    , and I know them, and
    they follow  me: 

  • Pride goeth before
      destruction.


      Satan is not stupid and he will use your pride against you. He will offer you
      the world and you will eventually feel like the whole world is sitting on your
      back. Remember that the Lords yoke is easy and His burdens are light. When it
    is  Gods voice and it reveals His plan for you, His grace will be sufficient for all  your needs...  

  • Proverbs 16:18  Pride goeth before destruction,
    and a haughty spirit before a fall.

Follow the Anointing.

  There is no substitute for understanding the anointing. God told me not to follow my wallet, but to follow  the anointing. Paul knew he
was to go to Rome when all his comrades advised against it. As you spend time in Gods presence His anointing will saturate your
  being. You will know in your knower what you must do. When I need direction I spend time worshipping God, as I worship Him I receive direction through the anointing. We have a promise that the Holy Spirit will show us things to come,  get in His presence and get a glimpse of your future...  

Isaiah 10:27  And it shall come to pass
in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy
shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck; and the yoke
  shall be destroyed because of the anointing
....
