My Destiny, My Choices

 

Genesis 3 vs. 1: The snake was  the most cleaver of all wild animals that the Lord God had made. The snake wanted to trick the woman.

The snake spoke to the woman, “ Woman, did the Lord really tell you that you must not eat from any tree in the garden?”

 

  1. God gave man the power of choice. He gave Adam and Eve the choice to either eat the forbidden fruit and die or refrain from eating it and live.

         Deut. 30 vs. 15: Today, I have given you a choice between life and death, good and evil.

  1. Down the ages, God has been placing man in the midst of alternatives.
  2. By divine arrangement, you are to determine which camp or territory you want to belong to in life.
  3. You must have a aim. There is no provision for aimlessness in destiny. Every aimless fellow will end up in the failure side. You must choose the right place to belong.
  4. If you don’t know how to choose right, you will find yourself in the suffering side of life.
  5. A man is the sum total of the choice he made by himself or he acquired from people.
  6. Every man should be responsible for the choice he made.
  7. Be careful the kind of choice you make, you either make it or lose by that choice.
  8. Your choice is powerful.

 

What is Choice?

  1.  Choice is the right of choosing between alternatives, possibilities, and options.
  2. There is a problem- the anointing of negative choices is running in the blood of man.
  3. It is a tragedy for man to take a decision in a haste. When you take the wrong steps in life, a lot of things will go wrong.
  4. God doesn’t force anything on anyone, though he is the Lord of your life, he will never Lord on you.
  5. You decide what you want in life, God did not create robots. He gave us the power to decide.

 

Five Destiny choices

 

Choice of Profession

Genesis 4 vs. 19-20: Lamech married two women. One wife was named Adah, and the other wife was named Zilllah. Adah gave birth to Jabal. Jabal was the father of people who lived in tents and earn their living by keeping cattle.

Genesis 25 vs. 27: The boys grew up, Esau became a skilled hunter. He loved to be out in the fields. But Jacob was a quiet man. He stayed in his tent.

 

  1. Esau choose to be a hunter, and Jacob was dwelling in the tents. Esau was always with animals, but Jacob was around people and listened to necessary instructions from men.
  2. A lot of people are doing the wrong jobs.

 

Choice of Marriage

Genesis 26 vs. 34-35: When Esau was 40 years old, he married two Hittite women. One was Judith the daughter of Beeri. The other was Basemath the daughter of Elon. These marriages made Isaac and Rebekah very upset.

 

  1. Esau choose the wrong profession and ended up in the wrong marriage. Esau married the enemies of God, the enemies of his destiny. He married from a cursed and rejected race.

Genesis 28 vs. 1: Isaac called Jacob and blessed him. Then Isaac gave him a command. Isaac said: “You must not marry a Canaanite woman.

Genesis 28 vs. 6-9: Esau learned that his father Isaac blessed Jacob. And Esau learned that Isaac sent Jacob away to Padan Aram to find a wife there. Esau learned  that Isaac commanded Jacob not to marry a Canaanite woman. And Esau learned that Jacob obeyed his father  and his mother and went to Paddan Aram. Esau  saw fromthis that his father did not want his sons  to marry Canaanite woman. Esau already had two wives. But he went to Ishmael and married another woman. He married Mahalath, the daughter of Ishmael. Ishmael was Abraham’s son. Mahalath was Nebaioth’ sister.

 

  1. All the life of Esau was a revelation of negative choices- wrongprofession, wrong marriage, and these eventually became his doom.

 

Final words

1.      For you to have a successful life, you must make the right choice.

2.      You choice in life determines your estate and destiny in life.

3.      Poverty only resides in the life of people who want it.

 

Prayer points

  1. Every anointing of negative choice in my blood, die in the name of Jesus.

  2. By the spirit of the living God, I terminate every appointment with sorrow.
