-Strength for Today- "Your Destiny is Greater Than You!"- 2 Corinthians 2:14

  We’re all born, “destined.” However, each us need to realize that our “destiny,” is “greater than we are. Before we took our first breath, “God’s destiny” was dwelling on the “blueprint, "designed for our lives. A "destined place” is a “divine intervention, "cause by God.” When you receive Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, and accept the call to advance His Kingdom; the Holy Spirit; our “source of energy,” reveals our “destined place.” When setbacks, and failures, "throw us off track,” He’ll use even those “setbacks” to “teach,” and train us.”  

   Through every season of life, we’re being “equipped,” and “sharpened,” for the “Master’s plan.” Because even in “times of despair,” we see His “peace and comfort”. And when “tough times mount,” we’re “nestled in the bosom of His “grace” and “mercy.” 

  So, just like so many men and women of the Bible, there’ll be times when you’ll experience, “hurricane sized problems.” But just like those men and women of faith, we too must hold unto God’s “unchanging hand.” - Hebrews 13:5c. 

  So, it’s precisely at this point we need not “fear,” because the Lord “destination” is “greater” than Satan’s “treats.” Our “destiny” is God’s plans for our lives, “...because Greater is He that is in you than he is in the world” -1 John 4:4b. No matter how loud the “devil roars,” or how many “fiery darts” he throws, or how many stumbling blocks he places before us, "God's grace is sufficient,” 

So, take the time to see Jesus in every facet of God’s “destined place for your life.”  Embrace the lessons He’s “teaching you,” and “lean on the grace that He’s for supplying you” and “stir up the hope inside your heart,” knowing that the purpose and plan for your “destiny is greater than you,” and that “destined place” is “greater” than “the storm you’re facing.” If Jesus has “called you,” He’ll always equip you. You’re a person of “destiny” and you’ll fulfill your call, because Christ will strengthen you through it all!
