Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 24 October 2024 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche: The Tragedy Of Destiny Replacement
TOPIC:Â The Tragedy Of Destiny Replacement (Seeds Of Destiny 24 October 2024)
SCRIPTURE: For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take. Acts 1:20
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:Â Remember that when you are slowing down, someone else is warming up, and when you are marking time, someone else is marching on.
MESSAGE:
It has been established that the journey of destiny fulfilment is often confronted with some deadly forces or enemies. One of such enemies of destiny is the attitude of slackness or slothfulness.
There are many people who have lost their places in life and destiny because they were too slack. They were not available to do what God expected of them to do.
They didn’t do what they were meant to do with their lives. And because of that, God said, “I am not going to waste my time waiting for them. I am going to locate someone else who is ready to move with speed to do it.” And eventually, what they were meant and destined to do is given to someone else because of their slackness.
Beloved, remember that when you are slowing down, someone else is warming up, and when you are marking time, someone else is marching on. Nobody will be compelled to wait for you because you are wasting time. The fact that one vehicle is parked by the roadside does not force other vehicles in motion to park.
There are so many people blaming those who came from behind to overtake them. They say things like, “I have been here all these years. I started first. I am older than him. Why is he like this?”
And God is saying, “When I wanted to move with you, you drew back.”
One day, Kathryn Kuhlman of Blessed Memory asked the Lord, “O Lord, why is my work so hard?”
And the Lord said to her, “It was a man’s mantle you are carrying. The assignment of your life was meant for a man, but the man disobeyed me, so, I had to look for someone else and gave the person the mantle, and you are the one.”
That is, her assignment was meant for a man who should naturally have the energy to work.
Kathryn Kuhlman worked like 18 hours out of 24 hours of the day. God told her that it was a man’s work she was doing.
Beloved, determine that nobody will take your place. Therefore, make up your mind never to be slothful or lazy in life.
Remember this: You must remember that when you are slowing down, someone else is warming up, and when you are marking time, someone else is marching on.
ASSIGNMENT:
- Make up your mind never to be replaced with anyone else due to slackness.
- Always keep a pace with God. Be sensitive to God’s leading and always endeavour to act on time.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive Your mercy never to be replaced with anyone in Your purpose and programme for my life. Help me to be at pace with You, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

AMAZING FACT: Your bone can heal itself by producing new cells. That’s why a person is put in a cast when they fracture their bone.
