SEEDS OF DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE
TOPIC: LIVING RIGHT BY A SENSE OF THE FUTURE
SCRIPTURE: 3…Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
4…Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed; then defiledst thou it: he went up to my couch. Genesis 49:3-4.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: A sense of the future imparts in you the discipline to live right.
It has been established that you need a sense of the future in order to fulfil destiny.
Let me give you one illustration. Before I went to medical school, I knew someone who was like a mentor to me already in a medical school. So, I got his medical books and began to read them aggressively because I had a picture of becoming a medical doctor.
While I was waiting to be admitted into the university, I was reading books on Anatomy even though I did not understand some of the things I read. Since I had distinction in Biology in the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE), I understood a few of the things I read.
While reading the Anatomy book, I was seeing things about muscles, nerves, veins and tendons and all their names. I kept reading them even though I did not understand most terminologies in the book.
I stepped into the university with the vision and passion to be a medical doctor. I knew that going for aimless meetings was not my portion.
You see, there are fresh students today who are admitted into the university, and get initiated into cultism by older students almost immediately. The older students take these fresh students to parties and introduce them to different ladies and their lives become ruined.
One reason such students could be easily trapped was that they had no sense of the future. They did not really know what they wanted to achieve out of life. They did not know the reason for their being on campus in the first place.
Beloved, a sense of the future imparts in you the discipline to live right.
REMEMBER THIS: A sense of future imparts in you the discipline to live right.
ASSIGNMENTS:
1. Ask God to ignite in you afresh a sense of the future and destiny.
2. Make up your mind to live right so you can arrive at your destiny.
PRAYER: Thank You Lord for Your Word to me today. I ask for a fresh impartation of a sense of the future and destiny. I receive the grace and discipline to live right, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
