BIBLE READING: DEUTERONOMY CHAPTERS 7-9
TOPIC: DESTINY CONNECTION
TEXT: "And Ruth said, interest me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my Godโ. RUTH 1:16
There are people, divinely ordained by God to transport your life into your glorious destiny. When you meet such people, you should be very sensitive not to lose them. The devil will try everything possible to disconnect you from them, because he knows with such people in your life, his mission to truncate your progress will be highly unfruitful. Therefore it would be unwise for you to dance to the tune of the manipulation by being offended by what people engaged by the devil do or say against you. You ought to be wise and overlook unpleasant circumstances that unfolds themselves one after the other against you to get you angry in order to make you take a wrong decision.
Your connection is destiny connection, your location is divinely ordained, refuse to allow distractions programmed by the adversary to derail you. Refuse to allow people with the spirit of Absalom use and disconnect you from your place of destiny. If Ahithophel, a man whose counsel was said to be as if a man had enquired at the oracle of God (2 Sam. 16:12) had remained with David, he would not have expired that soon. But because he pitched tent with Absalom, God turned his counsel to foolishness (2 Sam. 15:31) and he ended up hanging himself (2 Sam. 17:23).
When you are still divinely connected, however the unfavourable condition, it will turn around for your good. Ruth, despite the unpleasant circumstance, held on to Naomi, her mother-in-law and entered her destiny, the linage that birthed our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. Her name became a memorable one because she was sensitive to destiny connection.
PRAYER
My Father! My Father! As I begin to pray, I frustrate every intention of hell to disconnect me from destiny connections.
