Destiny Encounter

MEDITATION

Acts 9:15-16  The Lord said to him, "Go, because I have chosen him to serve me, to make my name known to Gentiles and kings and to the people of Israel. And I myself will show him all that he must suffer for my sake." (GNB)

Point to ponder on: An encounter with Jesus is an encounter with destiny and direction for purposeful living.

There are people who are pursuing the wrong thing with everything within them. Their primary goals in life are against God's purpose for their lives but the qualities in them are amazing and catalysts for success, however, they are using them for the wrong things. They are passionate but towards the wrong course. Everything they do they do it with seriousness but still not on the path of God's purpose for their life.

However, the amazing thing about this category of people is that even though their purpose is not clear to them they are already preparing for it in disguise, just that the investment is towards the wrong target. This category of people needs encounter with Jesus in order to channel their talents and qualities in the right direction. Apostle Paul has the qualities needed to fulfill his purpose but he was busy using it in the the wrong direction until he encountered Jesus who showed him his purpose and gave him direction for living. And from that day his life was transformed and his destiny redefined as he got to know what his target in life was and where he should invest his resources, talent, intellect, passion, gift and energy. Is there a confusion in your life as to really what your passion and talent are mainly to serve in the world or are they been used on the wrong things that are good but not purposeful to your fulfillment of destiny?

Jesus will remove the veil covering you today and makes things clearer in Jesus name. Someone could be gifted to talk and the purpose of God is to use such as His mouth piece to stand for injustice, save soul and preach the gospel but the person could be busy as a journalist or a comedian. The person is still using his or her talent and so passionate in that field but the purpose of God for his life is not in that line. The world might even celebrate such a person as a superstar succeeding in such career, however, he is yet to fulfill God's purpose for his life. Apostle Paul used his passion wrongly persecuting the Church until Jesus showed him his passion was in the wrong direction, he was rather meant to use that to build the Church and spread the gospel to the gentiles. It is possible to be successful in the wrong when every requirement for success in that field is present and well used, therefore, it is important to seek God for clarity so you don't waste time, energy and passion on the wrong career outside God's purpose for your life.

I pray for your divine encounter with destiny today and a discovery of your true essence in life. You will not waste precious time and resources on the wrong field in life in Jesus name.

I celebrate you.

Good morning. It's your great day. Enjoy It!
