Seven Keys to Discovering Your Destiny
1. Understand Grace.
II Peter 3:18 tells us to grow in grace. Grace itself does not grow. We grow in grace.
If we fail to understand grace, we try to earn favor with God. End up in mere religious works. Entrapped. We must come to the understanding of how much God really loves us and forgives us.
Heb. 13:9 says that our hearts must be established by grace.
2. Develop Faith.
Faith comes by hearing the Word of God. The more Word we have in us, the more faith we will have. Faith must be developed.
*Read the Word. *Believe the Word. *Speak the Word. *Act on the Word.
3. Be a Jesus Person.
John 15 - Develop a strong, personal, intimate relationship with Jesus not just a Sunday morning, congregational kind of relationship.
"I want to be a Jesus Person, not a miracle person. Not a healing person. Not a worship person. Not a tongues person."
4. Forget the past and forgive.
Isa. 43:18-19 tells us to forget the former things. You can't go forward if you are always looking in your rear view mirror.
5. Be quick to obey the Holy Spirit.
If we don't obey quickly, the enemy comes in to steal the Word. (like in the parable of the sower). We must obey quickly because the devil will try to come and convince you that it was only you, not God.God has a school of obedience. The first way we learn to obey is in the area of giving. God uses those who are in obedience in tithing and giving. We learn to hear His voice and obey.
6. Be teachable and submitted.
Matt 8:6 -10. Amount of power you have in the Spirit realm will be related to your submission. We must be submitted, humble and willing to learn.
7. Live your life with passion and eternal perspective.
God wants your whole heart! Be on FIRE for Him!
