HELP TO FULFIL DESTINY
Read: 2 Corinthians 12:1-10
2 Corinthians 12:1-10 “This boasting will do no good, but I must go on. I will reluctantly tell about visions and revelations from the Lord. I was caught up to the third heaven fourteen years ago. Whether I was in my body or out of my body, I don’t know—only God knows. Yes, only God knows whether I was in my body or outside my body. But I do know that I was caught up to paradise and heard things so astounding that they cannot be expressed in words, things no human is allowed to tell. That experience is worth boasting about, but I’m not going to do it. I will boast only about my weaknesses. If I wanted to boast, I would be no fool in doing so, because I would be telling the truth. But I won’t do it, because I don’t want anyone to give me credit beyond what they can see in my life or hear in my message, even though I have received such wonderful revelations from God. So to keep me from becoming proud, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger from Satan to torment me and keep me from becoming proud. Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
MEMORISE:
When I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also (2 Timothy 1:5)

EXPOSITION
Destiny is that which is predetermined. It is a condition foreordained by the divine, or by human will. It is what any person or thing is destined. Destiny is that to which one is appointed; the manifestation of God’s purpose for one’s life. It is what man is created for. All men are created for God’s glory. We are ultimately destined to be conform to the holy image of Christ Jesus (Rom. 8:29). The means to complete, accomplish, realise one’s dream, attain one’s goal and fulfil one’s goal.
Not every man realises that he has been destined to fulfill. You can help someone to realise and fulfil his/her destiny. Be a guide/compass to someone in the journey of destiny fulfilment through wise counsel and destiny financing. Be an encourager!

You have your children to help. God trusted Abraham and he did not disappoint God (Gen. 18:19). Mordecai was the instrument God used for the “orphaned” Esther to become a queen. He invested his time, resources, and wise counsel. Elijah helped Elisha. Help someone to become destiny-fulfilled. Timothy wouldn’t have fulfilled his destiny but for his mother, grandmother and Apostle Paul. They nurtured him to become an evangelist at a very young age. Be a destiny helper. Moses invested heavily in Joshua and it yielded greatly. Joshua adequately divided the Promised Land and settled the Israelites.
Nothing is too small or too big to contribute to help others fulfil their God-given destiny. Show of kindness could be the help needed by that poor boy. Give it! The good done to someone is an act of helping to fulfil his/her destiny. Don’t withhold it!
PRAYER POINTS
1. Lord, make me an instrument for the fulfilment of Your purpose in life, O Lord.
2. No power is strong enough to truncate my destiny and that of my family members, in Jesus’ name.
3. Father, let Your purpose be fulfilled concerning Your Church, the oppositions against her, notwithstanding.
