Pursuing our Destiny

Every believer has a God-given Destiny. In fact Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us that God’s plans for us are “…to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and future.” In this every believer has also a God-given potential to fulfil the calling that comes with the God-given destiny. However, there is a need for a tenacity and single-mindedness to pursue that destiny. But yet there are so many worldly and carnal distractions to trip us. How then do we keep our eyes upon Jesus as the author and finisher of our faith? Further, at the end of the day, are we able to say as Paul said in 2 Timothy 4:7, “…I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith”?
