The destiny God has in mind ultimately for every human is to be granted eternal life in his Kingdom as a son of God made over in his likeness spiritually. For that to happen means the development of godly character. We’re told that those in God’s kingdom will be like him (1 John 3:2).
To reach our target of godly character, as pointed out in “Fulfill Your Destiny Part 1,” requires a “guidance system,” as a vehicle such as a space probe or other vehicle traveling from one destination to another requires. This implies for any such system: (1) a reference point; (2) sensors to detect deviations from the intended course; (3) a means of correcting errors.
For us to develop the character necessary for us become like God requires yielding to his correction. We also have to have the proper reference point, which is God, and the instructions we find in Scripture. We also have to be aware of the direction in which our lives are headed, and seek correction where we are off course. In “Fulfill Your Destiny Part 2,” the discussion is continued concerning the necessity of being open to correction from God, and also being oriented to God’s will for us as expressed in his word and his commandments, and also being spiritually aware, awake to where we may need to change and grow spiritually.
I think most of you reading this will agree that the world in general is heading in the WRONG direction, and it’s critical to our spiritual welfare that we not be caught up in the vortex of evil that is leading the world to catastrophe on a massive scale. We can dwell safely in God’s kingdom, if we listen to him (Proverbs 1:33). In today’s world, unfortunately, most are not willing to do that. I sincerely hope and pray that each of you reading this will find encouragement and comfort in this message, as you seek God’s help in directing your steps toward your ultimate destiny of joy and fulfillment in his eternal kingdom.
