Destiny Helpers

Destiny Helpers

"Only Luke is with me. Get Mark & bring him with you, for he is useful to me for ministry", 2 Timothy 4:11 (NKJV)

Your destiny is greater than you. It has a great influence on those around us because no one exists for themselves. We are created to serve others. In fact, life would be boring if we lived selfishly.

"... but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant". Matthew 20:26

A quick look at the Bible will reveal that many people whom God lifted were meant to deliver other people or nations. God has made our destinies in a way that we need other people to unlock certain aspects of our destiny. These are called destiny helpers.

They may give us good ideas, good counsel, spiritual cover, financial support & encouragement. These people may be widespread in business, ministry, family, or career.

Epaphras, who is one of you and a servant of Christ Jesus,
 sends you greetings. He is always wrestling 
in prayer for you, so that you may stand mature 
and fully assured in the full will of God. Ephesians 4:12        
Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were contributing from their own resources to support Jesus & His disciples. Luke 8:3

Every Joshua needs a Moses, Elisha needs Elijah, David needs Saul & Samuel needs Eli. Great as Jesus was, He had to be introduced by John, the baptist.

We cannot manifest the fullness of God's plan for us without our destiny helpers. This is the human aspect of fulfilling destinies. Do you know your destiny helpers?

Ask God to help you discern & accept them.
