THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD-GIVEN HELPER

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD-GIVEN HELPER: STOP THAT CONCEPT OF LOOKING TO MAN AND MAKING MAN YOUR ACCLAIMED “DESTINY HELPER”! 

“God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble” Psalms 46:1 

I know and believe that God uses people at various times, in the past and present, to fulfil His PURPOSE. And He will still use people of all kinds to assist us as His children in fulfilling His PURPOSE for us, in order to ADVANCE HIS KINGDOM CAUSES and to keep the ENEMY and his COHORTS at bay. 

And in all the use of people, Father God, in Christ Jesus and empowered by the Holy Spirit, remains the primary and only SOURCE and HELPER of Believers in God, in Christ Jesus. 

Anything contrary to this is man-made, make-believe and idolatry. 

And for anyone to THINK or ATTRIBUTE that a CERTAIN individual or group of people are to be seen or to be owned personally as your “HELPER”, or in the words of the current atmosphere in use “DESTINY HELPER”, is unscriptural. 

Much more and worse, for someone to be praying that such person or people considered to be their HELPERS should be RESTLESS, STRESSFUL, WITHOUT PEACE, WITHOUT SLEEP and the like, until such a person or people help them; that is not only unscriptural, but very worrisome indeed — such a concept or acts of PRAYERS to God in the name of Jesus. 

Any of the above-mentioned dimensions and such like behavioural expectations breed the spirit of ENTITLEMENT, and that is unscriptural in all matters of doing life and living godly in grace, in Christ Jesus. 

Such exposure to entitlement makes the individual gullible, causes them to live in falsehood, to live under fate indoctrination, puppet religion, religiosity, perversion, distortion and the like. 

I make bold to challenge anyone, and I also dare to say to anyone now, that there is no SCRIPTURAL basis for such an unprecedented behavioural state. Neither is it mentioned anywhere that man has BECOME our ANSWER to God’s own PURPOSE in and about our life, in Christ Jesus’ BLESSEDNESS. 

And that such actions, concepts and behavioural mindsets of owning or attributing an individual or people as our HELPERS, will not LEAD anyone in Christ Jesus to fulfil DIVINELY approved PURPOSES in their path of LIFE and GODLY LIVING. But it may however satisfy the APPLAUD and HYPE of men for self-gratification, oppression and victimisation of an individual or people who refuse such inclinations. 

HEREIN ARE A FEW REASONS, BUT NOT LIMITED TO: 

Firstly, the Holy Writ in Ephesians 1:3 indicates that every Born Again child of God is unconditionally BLESSED in grace — meaning EMPOWERED to Succeed, to Triumph, to be Victorious, to BECOME, to Thrive, to Create, Innovate and Explore; and to be More Than Conquerors and Overcomers and the like. 

Secondly, the Holy Writ in Ephesians 1:5 and 11 indicates that each of us, and all of us together, who are born of God are already PREDESTINED to become in God whatever we desire in PURPOSE to be in Him, according to His WILL concerning us — 1 John 5:14-15. 

And Romans 8:28-30 further amplifies that as PREDESTINED people of God, all things have been DESIGNED by God to work together for our good and goodness because we LOVE the Lord God. And God has JUSTIFIED us, CHOSEN us, FOREKNOWN us, PREDESTINED us and GLORIFIED us in Christ Jesus. 

And if we ARE what the Scriptures say we ARE in God, in Christ Jesus, how then can people still say they are either SEARCHING for their destiny or PURSUING their destiny in Christ Jesus? 

And as such, somebody must be RESPONSIBLE and be held ACCOUNTABLE to be their DESTINY HELPER, or the HELPER to make them FULFIL their God-given and assigned PURPOSE or PURPOSES. 

I have begun to worry for some Christians in certain quarters whom I have seen making ENEMIES and ENMITY out of people by the kind of prayers they are making, because they have assumed that they have not been helped or are not receiving helping hands to fulfil their acclaimed DESTINY. This means their labelled DESTINY HELPER is undermining them and should be CURSED or MAIMED for not fulfilling their desired obligations or intended goals. 

Someone I thought should know better sent me this message that got me wondering what has happened to the Church, or what is happening to some Church members today in certain quarters.  

 “There are no GREAT men, only HELPED men . . . Whatever stands between you and HELPERS be removed now. May your HELPER be RESTLESS today until they HELP you in Jesus’ Name” 

I have tried to remove the name of the originator for conscience’ sake, knowing he is someone notable in places and a positioned person in the Body of Christ. This is to safeguard DECENCY in the Body of Christ’s sacred Ministry, for which I am called to share and partake, and of course, truly believe God is building. 

Honestly I was shocked, though not surprised, because I have seen lots of such like acts of PRAYERS going on in some certain quarters for a while now, which is very disturbing and many are already questioning it. 

I am emboldened to say that such line of PRAYER or PRAYERS are unwarranted and they are unscriptural, and must not be a part of the NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus acts of PRAYERS by any means. 

As New Creation, we ARE REDEEMED, CALLED, CHOSEN, PREDESTINED, JUSTIFIED and GLORIFIED by God in His FOREKNOWN plan in Christ Jesus, as written in Romans 8:28-30. 

The Scripture in Ephesians 1:1-12 thus indicates that God has BLESSED us, CHOSEN us, ACCEPTED us, PREDESTINED us, in Him to fulfil PURPOSE. 

And to be BLESSED therefore means to be EMPOWERED to succeed, thrive, triumph, to be more than conquerors, to become and to be an overcomer and a victor in Christ Jesus. 

It is not only that we have been BLESSED, but we have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME in LIFE and GODLINESS — Godly Living — in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

And when you know that God has BLESSED you and PREDESTINATED you in Christ Jesus to SUCCEED, having CHOSEN you, you need not think that any man can HELP or be your sole HELPER personified, to make you BE or BECOME what God has MADE you to be in Him, in Christ Jesus’ stead. 

God will use people to fulfil PURPOSE in our life, surely. And we do not owe or own such people, to name them DESTINY HELPERS and go PRAYING that they should be RESTLESS until they come and help you. 

For you are your own destiny, PREDESTINED of God to become in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. 

It thus means, if God MADE you as said, only Him and Him alone, can HELP you or be your HELPER in fulfilling His PURPOSE in your life in His BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus. 

No man is to be stationed or be defined, acclaimed or looked up to in such regards. It is a deception of the Enemy and his Cohorts to limit us and hinder us from the helping hand of God. 

Therefore, let us walk as obedient children and as Christ Ambassadors, respecting the supply that God, our HELP and HELPER, will generate by Himself through men to make us fulfil His will — PURPOSE — in our Life and Godly Living. 

This will put an end to all discord, schism, acrimony and enmity that have built up over time among individuals and in the Churches of Christ, through some ridiculous acts of praying to “possess” people as our inheritance in the name of “HELPERS” or “DESTINY HELPERS”. 

I pray God gives you Wisdom — knowledge and understanding — in the light of the Scriptures. I pray you live to fulfil PURPOSE by God in every way, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble. 2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; 3 though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah” Psalms 46:1-3. 

“Likewise the Spirit also HELPETH our INFIRMITIES (Limitations, Failures, Shortfalls, Inadequacies etc): for we know not WHAT we should pray for as we OUGHT: but the Spirit itself MAKETH intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that SEARCHETH the HEARTS knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the WILL of God” Romans 8:26-27. 

“For as MANY as are LED by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God” Romans 8:14. 

“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will GUIDE you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will SHEW you things to come. 14 He shall GLORIFY me: for he shall RECEIVE of mine, and shall SHEW it unto you” John 16:13-14. 

“WOE to them that go DOWN to Egypt for HELP; and stay on HORSES, and trust in CHARIOTS, because they are MANY; and in HORSEMEN, because they are very STRONG; but they LOOK not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither SEEK the Lord! 2 Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and AGAINST the HELP of them that work iniquity. 3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their HORSES flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord shall STRETCH out his hand, both he that HELPETH shall fall, and he that is HOLPEN shall fall down, and they all shall FAIL together” Isaiah 31:1-3. 

“Thus saith the Lord; CURSED be the man that TRUSTETH in man, and MAKETH FLESH HIS ARM, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. 6 For he shall be like the HEATH in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. 7 BLESSED is the man that TRUSTETH in the Lord, and whose HOPE the Lord is. 8 For he shall be as a tree PLANTED by the waters, and that SPREADETH out her roots by the river, and shall not see when HEAT cometh, but her leaf shall be GREEN; and shall not be CAREFUL in the year of DROUGHT, neither shall CEASE from YIELDING fruit” Jeremiah 17:5-8. 

“The Lord is my SHEPHERD; I shall not want. 2 He MAKETH me to lie down in green pastures: he LEADETH me beside the still waters . . .” Psalms 23:1-6. 

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he called, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30 

Further Scriptural Reading: Ephesians 1:1-12

SUMMARY 
The message teaches us to STOP LOOKING TO MAN AND CALLING HIM YOUR “DESTINY HELPER” — THE HOLY SPIRIT IS YOUR GOD-GIVEN HELPER. 

This TEACHING confronts the unscriptural practice of praying that people be made “RESTLESS” until they help you. It calls the Church back to truth: God alone, in Christ Jesus and by the Holy Spirit, is our SOURCE and HELPER. 

People may be used by God, but they are not to be owned, manipulated, idolised, or cursed in the name of “DESTINY HELPERS”. As NEW CREATIONS we are already BLESSED, CHOSEN, PREDESTINATED, JUSTIFIED and GLORIFIED in Christ. Therefore, we must walk and be led by the Spirit, not by entitlement. 

KEY POINTS: 

  1. GOD IS OUR TRUE AND PRESENT HELP 
    Our help does not come from the manipulation of men, but from God Himself. 
    Psalms 46:1 — God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble 
    Romans 8:26-27 — Likewise the Spirit also HELPETH our INFIRMITIES… but the Spirit itself MAKETH intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered
  2. THE “DESTINY HELPER” PRAYER CONCEPT IS UNSCRIPTURAL AND DANGEROUS
    Praying for people to be RESTLESS, STRESSED, or WITHOUT SLEEP until they help you breeds ENTITLEMENT, idolatry and enmity. It makes man the answer instead of God.
    Jeremiah 17:5-6 — CURSED be the man that TRUSTETH in man, and MAKETH FLESH HIS ARM, and whose heart departeth from the Lord
    Isaiah 31:1, 3 — WOE to them that go DOWN to Egypt for HELP… Now the Egyptians are men, and not God… both he that HELPETH shall fall, and he that is HOLPEN shall fall down
  3. AS NEW CREATION YOU ARE ALREADY BLESSED AND PREDESTINATED
    You do not need to “search” for destiny. In Christ you have been EMPOWERED to succeed, triumph and fulfil PURPOSE.
    Ephesians 1:3 — Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ
    Ephesians 1:5, 11 — Having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself… being PREDESTINATED according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will
    Romans 8:28-30 — For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE… whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED
  4. GOD MAY USE PEOPLE, BUT HE ALONE IS THE SOURCE
    People are vessels God uses, but they are not to be possessed, named, or cursed as “DESTINY HELPERS”. Trust must remain in God.
    John 16:13-14 — when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will GUIDE you into all truth… and he will SHEW you things to come
    Romans 8:14 — For as MANY as are LED by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God
  5. ENTITLEMENT AND IDOLATRY HINDER GODLY LIVING
    Making man your “helper” leads to falsehood, puppet religion, discord, schism and victimisation. It shifts focus from God to man.
    Psalms 23:1 — The Lord is my SHEPHERD; I shall not want 

Call to Action 

  1. RETURN YOUR TRUST TO GOD ALONE: Acknowledge THE HOLY SPIRIT as your God-given HELPER. Psalms 46:1 — God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble 
  2. STOP THE “DESTINY HELPER” PRAYERS: Repent of prayers that bind, curse or manipulate people. Do not make flesh your arm. Jeremiah 17:7 — BLESSED is the man that TRUSTETH in the Lord, and whose HOPE the Lord is the Lord 
  3. WALK IN YOUR PREDESTINATED IDENTITY: You are already BLESSED, CHOSEN and PREDESTINATED. Live from that place. Meditate on Ephesians 1:1-12 and Romans 8:28-30 
  4. BE LED BY THE SPIRIT: Allow the Spirit to GUIDE you, INTERCEDE for you, and SHOW you things to come. John 16:13 — when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will GUIDE you into all truth 
  5. HONOUR GOD’S SUPPLY THROUGH MEN, BUT DO NOT WORSHIP THE VESSEL: Respect the people God uses, but do not own them or make them your source. God will generate the help He wills, in His timing. 

Final Charge: Walk as obedient children and Christ Ambassadors. Let God be your HELP and HELPER. Cease from acts that create discord in the Body. Live to fulfil PURPOSE by God in every way, in Christ Jesus’ stead.

IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS 

By Leave a Comment

IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS: YOU ARE PREDESTINED TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD! 

“. . . 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will . . . 11 in whom also we have OBTAINED an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of him who WORKETH ALL THINGS after the COUNSEL OF HIS OWN WILL: 12 that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ . . .” Ephesians 1:1-14. 

You have been PREDESTINATED by God’s own will in Christ Jesus, to succeed in life and grace. For to be BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED purposefully and meaningfully with God’s enabling grace, in order for you to SUCCEED, THRIVE, FLOURISH, ACHIEVE, BECOME, INNOVATE, EXPLORE, CREATE, INITIATE, and such like, in all that concerns LIFE and GODLY LIVING, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

I recall hearing and reading the phrase below years ago. It helped to inspire my scriptural search and thinking around Ecclesiastes 3:11, enabling and assuring my self-discovery and recovery. It is summed up in this wisdom nugget by DR MYLES MUNROE of Blessed Memory: 

“The Creator HID your future where He knew you could not miss it… INSIDE you. Don’t go to your DESTINY… BECOME it.” — DR MYLES MUNROE (BFMI) of Blessed Memory.  

This wisdom concept could be explicitly shared in the Scriptures of which Ecclesiastes 3:11 gives more lights to many as written: 

“He has made EVERYTHING beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the HUMAN HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, EXCEPT God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11/Amplified. 

Stop looking for and pursuing your DESTINY – For your DESTINY is in YOU and you are your DESTINY. You BECOME what you make of yourself. Stop holding others RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE for your wellbeing. Rise up, look within and become the you in you that God has MADE wonderfully and reverentially to succeed in life and grace in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

“. . . For You did form my inward parts; You did knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14 I will confess and praise You for You are fearful and wonderful and for the awful wonder of my birth! Wonderful are Your works, and that my inner self knows right well. 15 My frame was not hidden from You when I was being formed in secret [and] intricately and curiously wrought [as if embroidered with various colors] in the depths of the earth [a region of darkness and mystery]. 16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance, and in Your BOOK ALL THE DAYS [OF MY LIFE] WERE WRITTEN before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them . . .” Psalms 139:1-18/AMP Classic Edition. 

You have to give meaning to the quest and voice of your inner being. The quest and voice within you could be that of the most sought-after Carpenter, Plumber, Teacher, Educator, Carer, Leader, Administrator, Minister, Medical Professional, Politician, Events Organiser, Baker, Farmer, Painter, Engineer, Technologist, Social Worker, Designer, Decorator, Scientist, Salesperson, and such like — that your Community and your World are craving to have in order to meet their human needs. 

Know this: for such there is an unction within you to function. And though your beginning may be little, your latter end could be the answer to the quest and needs of humanity, when you give it a start. 

Explore these Scriptures meditatively and let the Holy Spirit minister to your inner being for your wellbeing and the good of others, in grace, through your quest and exploring — 1 John 2:20, 27; Job 8:7; Zechariah 4:10. 

Your Family, Community, Nation and World are all waiting for your revealing — the manifestation of the you that is within you. Romans 8:19 

You have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME – Stop running about for SPECIAL DESTINY PRAYERS. You are carrying your destiny within you. Don’t blame others for your irresponsible decision not to look within and explore to become. 

YOU DON’T NEED TO FAKE IT TO BECOME IT. JUST BE WHO YOU ARE MADE TO BE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.  

“The Creator hid your future where He knew you could not miss it . . . INSIDE you. Don’t go to your destiny . . . BECOME it” – DR Myles MUNROE (BFMI) of Blessed Memory. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“He has MADE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL IN ITS TIME. Also He has put ETERNITY (PURPOSE/DESTINY) in their HEARTS (HUMAN SPIRIT), except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Emphasis Mine). 

“But there is a SPIRIT in man: and the INSPIRATION of the Almighty giveth them understanding” Job 32:8. 

“The Spirit of God has MADE me, 

And the BREATH of the Almighty GIVES me life [which inspires me]” Job 33:4 (Amplified). 

The SPIRIT (conscience) of man is the LAMP of the Lord, SEARCHING and EXAMINING all the INNERMOST parts of his being” Proverbs 20:27 (Amplified). 

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath MADE us ACCEPTED in the beloved . . . 11 in whom also we have OBTAINED an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 12 that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ” Ephesians 1:3-6, 11-12. 

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his purpose. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he CALLED, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he JUSTIFIED, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30. 

“For all the PROMISES of God IN HIM ARE YEA, and IN HIM AMEN, unto the glory of God by us. 21 Now he which STABLISHETH US with you in Christ, and hath ANOINTED US, is God; 22 who hath also SEALED US, and GIVEN THE EARNEST OF THE SPIRIT IN OUR HEARTS” 2 Corinthians 1:20-22. 

“But as it is written, EYE hath not SEEN, nor EAR HEARD, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.  

SUMMARY: 
This message is about identity, destiny, and purpose rooted in grace. It declares that God has already positioned, empowered, and equipped you in Christ to become all He purposed, and that your destiny is not something you chase externally — it is deposited within you by the Spirit. 

KEY POINTS: 

  1. YOUR IDENTITY: PREDESTINATED, CHOSEN, ANDBLESSEDIN CHRIST 

From Ephesians 1:3-12, you were CHOSEN before the foundation of the world and PREDESTINATED unto adoption by Jesus Christ according to the good pleasure of His will. 
To be BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED with God’s enabling grace to SUCCEED, THRIVE, FLOURISH, ACHIEVE, BECOME, INNOVATE, EXPLORE, CREATE, INITIATE and such like, in all that concerns LIFE and GODLY LIVING. 
Romans 8:28-30 confirms the chain: Foreknown → Predestinated → Called → Justified → Glorified. You are sealed, anointed, and established in Christ 2 Corinthians 1:20-22. 

  1. YOUR DESTINY IS WITHIN YOU: STOP CHASING, START BECOMING

Quoting DR MYLES MUNROE: “The Creator HID your future where He knew you could not miss it… INSIDE you. Don’t go to your DESTINY… BECOME it.” 
Ecclesiastes 3:11 explains this: God has put ETERNITY — a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE in the human heart. 
The call is to stop pursuing destiny as if it is outside you. Your destiny is in you. You BECOME what you make of yourself. Stop blaming others. Rise up and become the you that God MADE wonderfully and reverentially Psalm 139:13-16. 

  1. THE INNER UNCTION: PURPOSE FOR SERVICE AND HUMANITY

The quest and voice within you may be for Carpenter, Teacher, Leader, Medical Professional, Engineer, Social Worker, and such like — vocations your Community and World are craving to meet human needs. 
1 John 2:20,27; Job 8:7; Zechariah 4:10 are given for meditation. 
Know this: there is an unction within you to function. Though your beginning may be small, your latter end can answer the needs of humanity when you give it a start. Job 8:7 
Your Family, Community, Nation and World are waiting for the manifestation of the you that is within you Romans 8:19.  

  1. THE SPIRIT AND THE WORD: SOURCE OF REVELATION AND UNDERSTANDING

God reveals destiny by His Spirit: “But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10. 
Job 32:8, Job 33:4, Proverbs 20:27 affirm that the Spirit of God, the breath of the Almighty, and the lamp of conscience give understanding and search the innermost parts. 
You do not need to “fake it to become it”. JUST BE WHO YOU ARE MADE TO BE IN CHRIST JESUS’ STEAD. 

  1. THE CHARGE

Stop running about for SPECIAL DESTINY PRAYERS. Stop holding others RESPONSIBLE for your well-being. 
Take responsibility, look within, and walk in what God has already PREPARED Ephesians 1:11, 1 Corinthians 2:9.

IN ONE SENTENCE: 

This is a prophetic exhortation that because you are predestinated, blessed, and empowered in Christ, your destiny and purpose are already planted within you by God. Therefore, cease external striving, yield to the Spirit, give expression to the unction within, and become what God has made you to be — for the glory of God and the blessing of the world.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD GIVEN HELPER

By Leave a Comment

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD GIVEN HELPER: STOP THAT CONCEPT OF SEEING MAN AND MAKING MAN – AS YOUR ACCLAIMED “DESTINY HELPER”!“God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble” Psalms 46:1

I believe that God uses people at various times in the past and present to fulfill His PURPOSE, and will still use people of all sorts to assist us in fulfilling His PURPOSE in order to ADVANCE HIS KINGDOM CAUSES and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. But to THINK or ATTRIBUTE that a CERTAIN individual or group of people are to be seen or owned personally as your “HELPER” or in the words of current atmosphere in use “DESTINY HELPER” is unscriptural. Much more to be praying that such person or people will be RESTLESS, STRESSFUL, WITHOUT PEACE, WITHOUT SLEEP AND SUCH LIKES until they help you is not only unscriptural, but very worrisome indeed of such concept or acts of PRAYERS to God in the name of Jesus.

I make bold to challenge any, and also dare to any in the above paragraph written statement I have made and also to say to any now, that there’s no SCRIPTURAL basis for such unprecedented behavioural state, neither is it mentioned in anywhere that man has BECOME our ANSWERS to God’s own PURPOSE in and about our life in Christ Jesus BLESSEDNESS. And that such actions, concepts and behavioural mindset of owning or attributing an individual or people as our HELPERS, will not LEAD any in Christ Jesus to fulfil DIVINELY approved PURPOSES in their path of LIFE and GODLY LIVING; but may however satisfy the APPLAUD and HYPE of men for self gratifications, oppression and victimisation of an individual or people who refuses such inclination.

HEREIN ARE FEW REASONS BUT NOT LIMITED:

Firstly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:3, thus indicates that each Born Again child of God is potentially BLESSED unconditionally in grace – meaning EMPOWERED to Succeed, to Triumph, to be Victorious, to BECOME, to Thrive, to Create, Innovate and Explore; and to be More Than Conquerors and to be an Overcomer and such like.

Secondly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:5 and 11 thus indicates that each of us and together, who are born of God are already PREDESTINATED to become in God whatever we desired in PURPOSE to be in Him according to His WILL in us – 1 John 5:14-15.

And Romans 8:28-30 then amplifies that as PREDESTINATED people of God, all things have been DESIGNED of God to work together for our good and goodness because we LOVE the Lord God; and God have JUSTIFIED us, CHOSEN us, FOREKNOWN us, PREDESTINED us and GLORIFIED us in Christ Jesus stead.

And if we ARE what the scriptures says, we ARE in God in Christ Jesus stead, how dare people still saying they are either SEARCHING for their destiny or PURSUING their destiny in Christ Jesus.

And as such somebody must be RESPONSIBLE and be held ACCOUNTABLE to be their DESTINY HELPER or the HELPER to make them FULFIL their God given and assigned PURPOSE or PURPOSES. I have began to worry for some Christians in certain quarters whom I have seen making ENEMY and ENMITY out of people by the kind of prayers they are making, because they have assumed that they have not been helped or are not receiving helping hands to fulfill their acclaimed DESTINY, which means their labelled DESTINY HELPER is undermining them and should be CURSED or MAIMED for not fulfilling their desired obligations or intended goals.

Someone I thought should know better sent me this message that got me wondering what has happened to the Church or is happening to some Church members of today, and in certain quarters. The message received is this:

“There are no GREAT men, only HELPED men . . . Whatever stands between you and HELPERS be removed now . . . May your HELPER be RESTLESS today until they HELP you in Jesus Name”

I have tried to remove the name of the originator for conscience sake, knowing he’s someone notable in places and a positioned person in the body of Christ; this is to safeguard DECENCY in the Body of Christ sacred Ministry for which I am called to share and partake, and of course, truly believe God is building.  Honestly I was shocked though but not surprised, because I have seen lots of such like acts of PRAYERS going on in some certain quarters for a while now, which is very disturbing and lots are already questioning.

Am emboldened to say that such line of PRAYER or PRAYERS are unwarranted and it’s unscriptural and must not be a part of the NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus acts of PRAYERS by any means. As New Creation, we ARE REDEEMED, CALLED, CHOSEN, PREDESTINED, JUSTIFIED and GLORIFIED by God in His FOREKNOWLEDGED plan in Christ Jesus as written in Romans 8:28-30.

The Scripture of Ephesians 1:1-12, thus indicates that God has BLESSED us, CHOSEN us, ACCEPTED us, PREDESTINED or PREDESTINATED us, in Him to fulfill PURPOSE. And to be BLESSED therefore means to be EMPOWERED to succeed, thrive, triumph, more than conquerors, to become and to be an overcomer and a victor in Christ Jesus. It’s not only that we have been BLESSED, but have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME in LIFE and GODLINESS (Godly Living) in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

And when you know that God have BLESSED you and PREDESTINATED you in Christ Jesus to SUCCEED having CHOSEN you, you need not think that any man can HELP or be your sole HELPER personified, to make you BE or BECOME what God have MADE you to be in Him in Christ Jesus stead.

God will use people to fulfil PURPOSE in our life surely. And we don’t owe or own such people to name them DESTINY HELPERS to go PRAYING that they should be RESTLESS until they come and help you. For you are your own destiny, PREDESTINED of God to become in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. It thus means, if God MADE you as said, only Him and Him alone, can HELP you or be your HELPER in fulfiling His PURPOSE in your life in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. No man is to be stationed or be defined or acclaimed or looked up to in such regards. It’s a deception of the Enemy and Cohorts to limit us and hinder us of the helping hand of God.

Therefore, let us walk as obedient children and as Christ Ambassador’s, respecting the supply that God our HELP and HELPER will generate by Himself through men to make us fulfil His will – PURPOSE- in our Life and Godly Living. It will stop all the discord, schism, acrimony and the enmity that have generated overtime as Individuals or the Churches of Christ in doing some ridiculous acts of prayers to possess people as our inheritance in the name of “HELPERS” or “DESTINY HELPERS”.

I pray God gives you Wisdom – knowledge and understanding – in the light of the Scriptures. I pray you live to fulfil PURPOSE by God in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“Likewise the Spirit also HELPETH our INFIRMITIES (Limitations, Failures, Shortfalls, Inadequacies etc): for we know not WHAT we should pray for as we OUGHT: but the Spirit itself MAKETH intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that SEARCHETH the HEARTS knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the WILL of God” Romans 8:26-27.

“For as MANY as are LED by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God” Romans 8:14.

“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will GUIDE you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will SHEW you things to come. 14 He shall GLORIFY me: for he shall RECEIVE of mine, and shall SHEW it unto you” John 16:13-14.

“WOE to them that go DOWN to Egypt for HELP; and stay on HORSES, and trust in CHARIOTS, because they are MANY; and in HORSEMEN, because they are very STRONG; but they LOOK not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither SEEK the Lord! 2 Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and AGAINST the HELP of them that work iniquity. 3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their HORSES flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord shall STRETCH out his hand, both he that HELPETH shall fall, and he that is HOLPEN shall fall down, and they all shall FAIL together” Isaiah 31:1-3.

“Thus saith the Lord; CURSED be the man that TRUSTETH in man, and MAKETH FLESH HIS ARM, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. 6 For he shall be like the HEATH in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. 7 BLESSED is the man that TRUSTETH in the Lord, and whose HOPE the Lord is. 8 For he shall be as a tree PLANTED by the waters, and that SPREADETH out her roots by the river, and shall not see when HEAT cometh, but her leaf shall be GREEN; and shall not be CAREFUL in the year of DROUGHT, neither shall CEASE from YIELDING fruit” Jeremiah 17:5-8.

IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS: YOU ARE PREDESTINED TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“. . . 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will . . . 11 in whom also we have OBTAINED an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of him who WORKETH ALL THINGS after the COUNSEL OF HIS OWN WILL: 12 that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ . . .” Ephesians 1:1-14.

You’ve been PREDESTINATED of God’s own will in Christ Jesus, to succeed in life and grace. For to be BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED purposefully and meaningfully with God’s enabling grace in order for you to SUCCEED, THRIVE, COLOUR, ACHIEVE, BECOME, INNOVATE, EXPLORE, CREATE, INITIATE and such like, in all about doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

I remembered hearing and reading this phrase below years ago that helps to inspire my scriptural search and thinking of Ecclesiastes 3:11, enabling and assuring to my self discovery and recovery as summed up in this wisdom nugget by DR Myles MUNROE of Blessed Memory:

“The Creator HID your future where He knew you could not miss it . . . INSIDE you. Don’t go to your DESTINY . . . BECOME it” – DR Myles MUNROE (BFMI) of Blessed Memory.

This wisdom concept could be explicitly shared in the Scriptures of which Ecclesiastes 3:11 gives more lights to many as written:

“He has made EVERYTHING beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the HUMAN HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, EXCEPT God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11/Amplified.

Stop looking and pursuing for your DESTINY – For your DESTINY is in YOU and you are your DESTINY. You BECOME what you make of yourself. Stop holding others RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE for your well being. Rise up, look within and become the you in you that God has MADE wonderfully and reverentially to succeed in life and grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“. . . For You did form my inward parts; You did knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14 I will confess and praise You for You are fearful and wonderful and for the awful wonder of my birth! Wonderful are Your works, and that my inner self knows right well. 15 My frame was not hidden from You when I was being formed in secret [and] intricately and curiously wrought [as if embroidered with various colors] in the depths of the earth [a region of darkness and mystery]. 16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance, and in Your BOOK ALL THE DAYS [OF MY LIFE] WERE WRITTEN before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them . . .” Psalms 139:1-18/AMP Classic Edition.

You have to give meaning to your inner being quest and voice. The quest and voice within you could be the most sort out Carpenter, Plumber, Teacher, Educator, Carer, Leader, Administrator, Minister, Medical, Politician, Events Organiser, Baker, Farmer, Painter, Engineer, Technologist, Social worker, Designer, Decorator, Salesperson and such like that your Community and your World are craving to have you to sort their human needs.

Know for such there’s an unction within you to function and though your beginning may be little – small, your latter end could be the answer to the quest and needs of all humans, when you give it a start – 1 John 2:20, 27; Job 8:7; Zachariah 4:10. Your Family, Community, Nation and World are all waiting for your revealing – the manifestation of the you that’s within you – Romans 8:19.

You have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME – Stop running about for a SPECIAL DESTINY PRAYERS.

YOU DON’T NEED TO FAKE IT TO BECOME IT. JUST BE WHO YOU ARE MADE TO BE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD GIVEN HELPER

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD GIVEN HELPER: STOP THAT CONCEPT OF SEEING MAN AND MAKING MAN – AS YOUR ACCLAIMED “DESTINY HELPER”!

“God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble” Psalms 46:1

I believe that God uses people at various times in the past and present to fulfill His PURPOSE, and will still use people of all sorts to assist us in fulfilling His PURPOSE in order to ADVANCE HIS KINGDOM CAUSES and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. But to THINK or ATTRIBUTE that a CERTAIN individual or groups of people are to be seen or owned personally as your “HELPER” or in the words of current atmosphere in use “DESTINY HELPER” is unscriptural. Much more to be praying that such person or people will be RESTLESS, STRESSFUL, WITHOUT PEACE, WITHOUT SLEEP AND SUCH LIKES until such or they help you is not only unscriptural but very worrisome indeed of such concept or acts of PRAYERS to God in the name of Jesus.

I make bold to challenge any and also dare to any in the above paragraph written statement I have made and also to say to any now, that there’s no SCRIPTURAL basis for such unprecedented behavioural state, neither is it mentioned in anywhere that man has BECOME our ANSWERS to God’s own PURPOSE in and about our life in Christ Jesus BLESSEDNESS. And that such actions, concepts and behavioural mindset of owning or attributing an individual or people as our HELPERS, will not LEAD any in Christ Jesus to fulfil DIVINELY approved PURPOSES in their path of LIFE and GODLY LIVING; but may however satisfy the APPLAUD and HYPE of men for self-gratifications, oppression and victimisation of an individual or people who refuses such inclination.

HEREIN ARE FEW REASONS BUT NOT LIMITED:

Firstly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:3, thus indicates that each Born Again child of God is potentially BLESSED unconditionally in grace – meaning EMPOWERED to Succeed, to Triumph, to be Victorious, to BECOME, to Thrive, to Create, Innovate and Explore; and to be More Than Conquerors and to be an Overcomer and such like.

Secondly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:5 and 11 thus indicates that each of us and together, who are born of God are already PREDESTINATED to become in God whatever we desired in PURPOSE to be in Him according to His WILL in us – 1 John 5:14-15.

And Romans 8:28-30 then amplifiers that as PREDESTINATED people of God, all things have been DESIGNED of God to work together for our good and goodness because we LOVE the Lord God; and God have JUSTIFIED us, CHOSEN us, FOREKNOWN us, PREDESTINED us and GLORIFIED us in Christ Jesus stead. And if we ARE what the scriptures says we ARE in God in Christ Jesus stead, how dare come that people are still saying they are either SEARCHING for their destiny or PURSUING their destiny in Christ Jesus. And as such somebody must be RESPONSIBLE and be held ACCOUNTABLE to be their DESTINY HELPER or the HELPER to make them FULFIL their God given and assigned PURPOSE or PURPOSES. I have begun to worry for some Christians in certain quarters whom I have seen making ENEMY and ENMITY out of people by the kind of prayers they are making, because they have assumed that they have not been helped or are not receiving helping hands to fulfil their acclaimed DESTINY, which means their labelled DESTINY HELPER is undermining them and should be CURSED or MAIMED for not fulfilling their desired obligations or intended goals.

Someone I thought should know better sent me this message that got me wondering what has happened to the Church or is happening to some Church members of today, and in certain quarters. The message received is this:

“There are no GREAT men, only HELPED men . . . Whatever stands between you and HELPERS be removed now . . . May your HELPER be RESTLESS today until they HELP you in Jesus Name”

I have tried to remove the name of the originator for conscience sake, knowing he’s someone notable in places and a positioned person in the body of Christ; this is to safeguard DECENCY in the Body of Christ sacred Ministry for which I am called to share and partake, and of course, truly believe God is building.  Honestly, I was shocked though but not surprised, because I have seen lots of such like acts of PRAYERS going on in some certain quarters for a while now, which is very disturbing and lots are already questioning.

Am emboldened to say that such line of PRAYER or PRAYERS are unwarranted and it’s unscriptural and must not be a part of the NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus acts of PRAYERS by any means. As New Creation, we ARE REDEEMED, CALLED, CHOSEN, PREDESTINED, JUSTIFIED and GLORIFIED by God in His FOREKNOWLEDGED plan in Christ Jesus as written in Romans 8:28-30. The Scripture of Ephesians 1:1-12, thus indicates that God has BLESSED us, CHOSEN us, ACCEPTED us, PREDESTINED or PREDESTINATED us, in Him to fulfill PURPOSE. And to be BLESSED therefore means to be EMPOWERED to succeed, thrive, triumph, more than conquerors, to become and to be an overcomer and a victor in Christ Jesus. It’s not only that we have been BLESSED but have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME in LIFE and GODLINESS (Godly Living) in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

And when you know that God have BLESSED you and PREDESTINATED you in Christ Jesus to SUCCEED having CHOSEN you, you need not think that any man can HELP or be your sole HELPER personified, to make you BE or BECOME what God have MADE you to be in Him in Christ Jesus stead.

God will use people to fulfil PURPOSE in our life surely. And we don’t owe or own such people to name them DESTINY HELPERS to go PRAYING that they should be RESTLESS until they come and help you. For you are your own destiny, PREDESTINED of God to become in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. It thus means, if God MADE you as said, only Him and Him alone, can HELP you or be your HELPER in fulfilling His PURPOSE in your life in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. No man is to be stationed or be defined or acclaimed or looked up to in such regards. It’s a deception of the Enemy and Cohorts to limit us and hinder us of the helping hand of God.

Therefore, let us walk as obedient children and as Christ Ambassador’s, respecting the supply that God our HELP and HELPER will generate by Himself through men to make us fulfil His will – PURPOSE- in our Life and Godly Living. It will stop all the discord, schism, acrimony and the enmity that have generated overtime as Individuals or the Churches of Christ in doing some ridiculous acts of prayers to possess people as our inheritance in the name of “HELPERS” or “DESTINY HELPERS”.

I pray God gives you Wisdom – knowledge and understanding – in the light of the Scriptures. I pray you live to fulfil PURPOSE by God in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

I have began to worry for some Christians in certain quarters whom I have seen making ENEMY and ENMITY out of people by the kind of prayers they are making, because they have assumed that they have not been helped or are not receiving helping hands to fulfill their acclaimed DESTINY, which means their labelled DESTINY HELPER is undermining them and should be CURSED or MAIMED for not fulfilling their desired obligations or intended goals.

Someone I thought should know better sent me this message that got me wondering what has happened to the Church or is happening to some Church members of today, and in certain quarters. The message received is this:

“There are no GREAT men, only HELPED men . . . Whatever stands between you and HELPERS be removed now . . . May your HELPER be RESTLESS today until they HELP you in Jesus Name”

I have tried to remove the name of the originator for conscience sake, knowing he’s someone notable in places and a positioned person in the body of Christ; this is to safeguard DECENCY in the Body of Christ sacred Ministry for which I am called to share and partake, and of course, truly believe God is building.  Honestly I was shocked though but not surprised, because I have seen lots of such like acts of PRAYERS going on in some certain quarters for a while now, which is very disturbing and lots are already questioning.

Am emboldened to say that such line of PRAYER or PRAYERS are unwarranted and it’s unscriptural and must not be a part of the NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus acts of PRAYERS by any means. As New Creation, we ARE REDEEMED, CALLED, CHOSEN, PREDESTINED, JUSTIFIED and GLORIFIED by God in His FOREKNOWLEDGED plan in Christ Jesus as written in Romans 8:28-30. The Scripture of Ephesians 1:1-12, thus indicates that God has BLESSED us, CHOSEN us, ACCEPTED us, PREDESTINED or PREDESTINATED us, in Him to fulfill PURPOSE. And to be BLESSED therefore means to be EMPOWERED to succeed, thrive, triumph, more than conquerors, to become and to be an overcomer and a victor in Christ Jesus. It’s not only that we have been BLESSED, but have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME in LIFE and GODLINESS (Godly Living) in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

And when you know that God have BLESSED you and PREDESTINATED you in Christ Jesus to SUCCEED having CHOSEN you, you need not think that any man can HELP or be your sole HELPER personified, to make you BE or BECOME what God have MADE you to be in Him in Christ Jesus stead.

God will use people to fullfil PURPOSE in our life surely. And we don’t owe or own such people to name them DESTINY HELPERS to go PRAYING that they should be RESTLESS until they come and help you. For you are your own destiny, PREDESTINED of God to become in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. It thus means, if God MADE you as said, only Him and Him alone, can HELP you or be your HELPER in fulfiling His PURPOSE in your life in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. No man is to be stationed or be defined or acclaimed or looked up to in such regards. It’s a deception of the Enemy and Cohorts to limit us and hinder us of the helping hand of God.

Therefore, let us walk as obedient children and as Christ Ambassador’s, respecting the supply that God our HELP and HELPER will generate by Himself through men to make us fulfil His will – PURPOSE- in our Life and Godly Living. It will stop all the discord, schism, acrimony and the enmity that have generated overtime as Individuals or the Churches of Christ in doing some ridiculous acts of prayers to possess people as our inheritance in the name of “HELPERS” or “DESTINY HELPERS”.

I pray God gives you Wisdom – knowledge and understanding – in the light of the Scriptures. I pray you live to fulfil PURPOSE by God in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS: YOU ARE PREDESTINED TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

You’ve been PREDESTINATED in Christ Jesus, to succeed in life and grace. For to be BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED purposefully and meaningfully with God’s enabling grace in order for you to SUCCEED, THRIVE, COLOUR, ACHIEVE, BECOME, INNOVATE, EXPLORE, CREATE, INITIATE and such like, in all about doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

I remembered hearing and reading this phrase below years ago that helps to inspire my scriptural search and thinking of Ecclesiastes 3:11, leading to my self-discovery and recovery as summed up in this wisdom nugget by DR Myles MUNROE of Blessed Memory:

“The Creator HID your future where He knew you could not miss it . . . INSIDE you. Don’t go to your DESTINY . . . BECOME it” – DR Myles MUNROE (BFMI) of Blessed Memory.

“He has made EVERYTHING beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the HUMAN HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified).

Stop looking and pursuing for your DESTINY – For your DESTINY is in YOU and you are your DESTINY. You BECOME what you make of yourself. Stop holding others RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE for your well-being. Rise up, look within and become the you in you.

You have to give meaning to your inner being quest and voice. The quest and voice within you could be the most sort out Carpenter, Plumber, Teacher, Educator, Carer, Leader, Administrator, Minister, Medical, Politician, Event Organizer, Baker, Farmer, Painter, Engineer, Technologist, Social worker, Designer, Decorator, Salesperson and such like that your Community and your World are craving to have to sort their human needs.

Know for such there’s an unction within you to function and though your beginning may be little – small, your later end could be the answer to the quest and needs of all humans, when you give it a start – 1 John 2:20, 27; Job 8:7; Zachariah 4:10. Your Family, Community, Nation and World are all waiting for your revealing – the manifestation of the you that’s within you – Romans 8:19.

You have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME – Stop running about for a SPECIAL DESTINY PRAYERS.

YOU DON’T NEED TO FAKE IT TO BECOME IT. JUST BE WHO YOU ARE MADE TO BE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD GIVEN HELPER

By Leave a Comment

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD GIVEN HELPER: STOP THAT CONCEPT OF SEEING MAN AND MAKING MAN – AS YOUR ACCLAIMED “DESTINY HELPER”!

“God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble” Psalms 46:1

I believe that God uses people at various times in the past and present to fulfill His PURPOSE, and will still use people of all sorts to assist us in fulfilling His PURPOSE in order to ADVANCE HIS KINGDOM CAUSES and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. But to THINK or ATTRIBUTE that a CERTAIN individual or groups of people are to be seen or owned personally as your “HELPER” or in the words of current atmosphere in use “DESTINY HELPER” is unscriptural. Much more to be praying that such person or people will be RESTLESS, STRESSFUL, WITHOUT PEACE, WITHOUT SLEEP AND SUCH LIKES until such or they help you is not only unscriptural but very worrisome indeed of such concept or acts of PRAYERS to God in the name of Jesus. For there’s no scriptural basis for such unprecedented behavioural state, neither is it mentioned in anywhere that man has become our ANSWERS to God’s own PURPOSE in and about our life in Christ Jesus BLESSEDNESS. And such actions, concepts and behavioural mindset of owning or attributing an individual or people as our HELPERS, will not lead any in Christ Jesus to fulfil DIVINELY approved PURPOSES in LIFE and GODLY LIVING; but may satisfy the APPLAUD of men for self-gratifications, oppression and victimisation of an individual or people who refuses such inclination.

Firstly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:3, thus indicates that each Born Again child of God is BLESSED in grace potentially – meaning EMPOWERED to Succeed, to Triumph, to be Victorious, to BECOME, to Thrive, to Create, Innovate and Explore; and to be More Than Conquerors and to be an Overcomer and such likes.

Secondly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:5 and 11 thus indicates that each of us and together, who are born of God are already predestinated to become in God whatever we desired in PURPOSE to be in Him according to His will in us – 1 John 5:14-15. And Romans 8:28-30 then amplifiers that as PREDESTINATED people of God, all things have been DESIGNED of God to work together for our good and goodness because we LOVE the Lord God; and God have justified us, chosen us, predestined us and glorified us in Christ Jesus stead. And if we ARE what the scriptures says we are, how come people are still saying they are either SEARCHING for their destiny or PURSUING their destiny. And as such somebody must be RESPONSIBLE and be held ACCOUNTABLE to be their DESTINY HELPER or the HELPER to make them fulfil purpose or purposes. I have began to worry for some Christians in certain quarters whom I have seen making enemy out of people by the kind of prayers they are making, because they have assumed that they have not been helped or are not receiving helping hands to fulfill their acclaimed DESTINY, which means their labelled DESTINY HELPER is undermining them and should be cursed or maimed for not fulfiling their desired obligations or intended goals.

Someone I thought should know better sent me this message that got me wondering what has happened to the Church or is happening to Church today, and in certain quarters. The message received is this:

“There are no GREAT men, only HELPED men . . . Whatever stands between you and HELPERS be removed now . . . May your HELPER be RESTLESS today until they HELP you in Jesus Name”
