Theme: UNDERSTANDING HOW TO FULFILL YOUR DESTINY
Topic: Divine Guidance: The energy for a glorious Destiny Pt.1
Introduction: Whereas vision sets the pace for destiny, divine guidance enables us to run correctly on the course of a glorious destiny. Destiny is the journey we make through life based on the choices we have made. For us to run accurately and with fulfilling speed, we need supernatural energy also known as the joy of The Lord. Peter calls it unspeakable joy full of glory [1Pet.1:8]. However, to access joy on a continuous basis, we must be in touch with God daily through hearing His voice. At the base of the joy of the Lord is His voice. See John 15:11. The good news here is that in the covenant of grace, it is our right to be blessed with the voice of the Lord on a continuous basis. See Jn.10:27 and Rm.8:14. Therefore, to   make the right choices on a consistent basis, we need God’s help [Ps.25:9 & 12] and we can get it based on our intimate relationship with Him [Jn.14:23].
Five reasons why we must receive divine Guidance
It is God’s will for us – Ps.32:8; Jn.10:27-28.
This is the ministry the Holy Spirit came to fulfill – Jn.16:13 and Rm.8:14-16.
We can only fulfil our destinies on the platform of divine guidance. Jer.29:11-13 and Acts 16:6-10.
We can only live profitably when He guides us. Isa.48:17-18.
When God guides us, He helps us by defending us, empowering us and protecting us. Ex.13:21-22; Ps.23; Ps.114 and 2Ch20n.20:1-24.
How God guides
By dreams and or visions: Job 33:14-18 and Dan.2:17-19.
The inward witness: This is the perception we receive from the indwelling Holy Spirit which we cannot prove naturally but we know it to be the truth and eventually, circumstances or future experiences would confirm it. Rm.8:14, 16 and Acts 27:10.
The still small voice of the Holy Spirit: See the example of Elijah in 1Kings 19:9-13.
Circumstances: 1Sam.17.
Prophets: 1Sam.10; Acts 11:28 and21:10-11.
By angels: Rev1:1 & Mt.1:18-25
The word: 1Sam. 3:21 & Lk.3:1-6.
Eight things that happen when He guides us on our destiny’s journey
He goes ahead of us. Is.45:2 and Acts 10 showing the example of God leading Cornelius to Peter for his salvation and that of his house.
He goes with us. See the example of Joseph in Egypt in the house of Potiphar. Gen.39:2-4 and Apostle Paul’s example in Acts 19:8-10 where the Lord gave them the entire Asia minor in 2 years. 
He defends us. Dan.3 and Num.12:1-12.
He causes us to profit in all areas of life. Isa.48:17; Jer.17:5-8.

He fills our hearts with unspeakable joy. 1Pet.1:8; Mt.2:1-2. 9-10.
We enjoy the peace of God. Ps.85:8 & Jn.14:27; 16:33.
We enter into the rest of God that only His faith can bring. Jn.10:27-28, Heb.4:2 and Rm.10:17.
We always triumph in the conflicts of life. See 2Cor.2:14 and 1Tim.6:12.
We shall draw the curtain here for today. From what we have been looking at so far, if you are convicted by the Holy Spirit that you have since been making bad choices, you can change that now. If you choose to do so, it starts only one way, you must first be born again and you can be saved by saying the following prayer out loud in faith:
Heavenly Father,
Have mercy on me a sinner. Today, I believe that Jesus died for me and you raised Him from the dead for my Justification. I therefore declare that Jesus Christ is my Saviour and Lord and from today, I renounce the fatherhood of Satan and embrace Jesus Christ as my Saviour and Lord. Thank you for this father in Jesus’ name! Amen.
