Destiny
By Evangelist Michelle A. Moorer READ: Ecclesiastes 6:10-12 NIV Jeremiah 18:6 NIV Romans 9:21-24 NIV
Everything you do in this life has already been decided by God; whether you understand it or if it does not make any sense. God has already predestined our footsteps. In Ecclesiastes 6: 10-12 NLT states “Everything has already been decided. It was known long ago what each person would be. So there’s no use arguing with God about your destiny. The more words you speak, the less they mean. So why overdo it? In the few days of our empty lives, who knows how our days can be best spent? And who can tell what will happen in the future after we are gone?” God knows and directs everything that happens, and he is in complete control over our lives, even though at times it may not seem like it. How foolish it is for us to contend with our Creator, who knows us completely and can see the future. In Jeremiah 18:6 NIV says “O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter does?” declares the Lord. “Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.” I would like for you to visualize a potter molding or shaping clay on the wheel. A perfect example is the movie Ghost when Demi Moore was pottering and some of her pottering was not perfect and she would give up and stop and then try again. In this movie Demi Moore had control over the clay to clean up the defects or reshape the pottery.
power to transform any one to do His will. God already said his word will not come back void. Our strategy should not be to become mindless and passive on one aspect of clay, but to be willing and receptive to God’s impact on us. I would like for you to pay attention to the work God is doing in your life. As we yield and obey God, he begins to reshape us into valuable vessels. Think about a time where God was so patient with you and the only thing you could see was God’s mercy and grace in your life? Think about some areas of your life where God rescued you from yourself when you were heading for destruction or already in destruction? How did he turn your life around? What are some of the things God did for you? Pray Father God, in the name of Jesus help me to fulfill my purpose in life. Help me to stay on a straight and narrow road because in your word wide is the way to destruction. Place people in my life to help me become all I need to be to get to the next level in my life.
