```DESTINY DISCOVERY AND MOLDING MESSAGE```
♦ *TOPIC: THE SACRIFICE OF DESTINY*
*_By: Judah Olatunde_*
1 Corinthians 10:23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
1 Corinthians 9:27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
It is one thing to have a destiny and it is another thing to fulfill such destiny. Paul said, all things are good but not all things are helpful unto me, this means that, some things may be good but they may be satanic trap that will truncate your destiny and this is why the issue of sacrifice cannot be overemphasized.
If you cannot put your body under, your body will put you under and if you cannot die to self, self will trncate your destiny.
Sacrifice involves so many things. And for the fulfillment of your destiny, there are certain sacrifices that you must make. Saul couldn't make that sacrifice, so his destiny was transferred to someone else, Eli couldn't and this got his destiny transferred and if Mary had defiled herself, she wouldn't have been fit to carry Jesus in her womb.
We have so many in this generation who are so full of self and the flesh, they have s glimpse on what they want to become but are completely unwilling to do that which it takes in order to fulfill it. There are many who will not see the word God spoke to them fulfilled not because the word was not declared by God but because they never took any tangible responsibility to see the word fulfilled.
Abraham sacrificed his only son to enter into the realm of transgenerational affluence and record breaker despite his negative background, Mary sacrificed the pleasure of worldly lust and consecrated herself in order to carry Jesus in her womb, Daniel sacrificed complete pleasure in order to please God and this made him relevant even until this generation.
Do you think all these few men I've mentioned gave a little sacrifice? No, all these are completely unusual and seemingly insane sacrifices. They are things people of this generation are unwilling to do. The pleasure of life won't allow people of this days to have access to God's best. The affection for the world has gradually eroded the love for God.
Nothing in this world can ever satisfy any true believer who wants to fulfill destiny and the end product of every sacrifice is outstanding fulfillment of destiny and distinction.
Lay down list, worldly lifestyles (songs, dressings, opinions, characters, etc) and take up responsibility for where you are going. It is worth it!
*Insights For Today: You can't scale great heights if you're not willing to sacrifice, if you cannot put your body under, your body will put you under and you can't be distinguished if you're willing and ready to sacrifice*
*_Prayer point: Ask for the help of the Lord to help you do everything He requires from you, everything needed to fulfill destiny. Keep walking by faith_*
★DAILY BIBLE READING PLAN: Ezek 44, Luke 17 and Psalms 13
