Living Without God Is The Worst Suicide Mission....

Good Day Destiny Partner...

I trust that you are great this beautiful and sunny monday afternoon. I want to thank you again for allowing me an opportunity to invade your cyberspace, three days a week now. You are a blessing to me and I love you....

In today's article, I want us to discuss the importance of connecting with God. Many times we tend to think, "It's ok with me...Jesus is the Lord and Saviour of my life."

But however commendable that decision can be, it is also important to understand that; our destiny in God is perpetual, and therefore, we need Him everyday if we are to know the next steps that we should take in order to accomplish that which we were born to do.

In 2 Chronicles 26:5 [KJV],"And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God: and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper."

Destiny Partner, allow me to share with you some profound revelation in seeking God. You see, God has made everything on earth to function in a specific environment. The fish was made to function in water. The trees were made to function in a specific soil. Earth was made as a boundary within which we should function as people...

I have spoken alot about the book of Genesis in this platform. When we study the book of Genesis, we realise that God put Adam in the garden of Eden to till it.In other words, tilling the ground was Adam's function in the garden of Eden.

But in order for Adam to carry out his primary function or responsibilities in the garden, it was imperative that he maintains constant and consistent communication and connection with God, so that he know his next move.

Can I tell you a revelation...Adam had spent so much time with God that God's spirit had contaminated him. Yes...the spirit of a man is contagious.

Perhaps that is why when you spent time with people of certain personality, you end up speaking and doing things like them....

Now, when God gave Adam the responsibility to name the animals...WHAT ADAM WAS GOING TO NAME THE ANIMALS WAS NOT GOING TO COME AS A SHOCK TO GOD, BECAUSE HE(ADAM) HAD SPENT SUFFICIENT TIME WITH GOD FOR GOD TO KNOW, THAT WHAT HE WAS GOING TO NAME THEM....WOULD MOST DEFINITELY BE WHAT GOD WOULD NAME THEM HIMSELF. WOW!!!

DP, You cannot fully realise the destiny that God has for your life while you still praying 5 minute prayers. I am sorry to offend you but in order for heaven to fully influence earth with heavenly influences and vision, earthly being should spend time understanding how heaven operates....we need to spend time with heaven to absorb these influences. And these influences will ensure that our world never remains the same. THAT IS A PRINCIPLE.

If you take a student in south africa, and allow them to spend time in Harvard University, America...say for 5 years.When you take that person back to south africa after 5 years, chances are; their influences and the impact at the workplace will most definitely be american influenced.

In other words, that workplace will have an opportunity to experience the American influences....

You cannot carry out your life assignment if you don't know what your next move should be. But your next move is in God and His presence is where we should dwell not visit...but dwell in.

I want to encourage you Destiny Partner this afternoon; your destiny is in God. Your next career move is in God. Your next business is in God. Your right career choice is in God not your friends. But you need to spend time in the presence of the one who made that Destiny. The presence of the Lord must be your best friend.

It must be in His presence were strategies to tackle issues that have defeated minds are found. It is in His presence were your failures are transformed into your story...

As long as Uzziah sought the Lord, the Lord made him to prosper...

What They Never Told You About The ANOINTING....

Good afternoon DP...

I am soo grateful that God has granted me an opportunity to write this article to you once more...And i believe that after you read it, your life will never be the same again...

I was in Cape Town this past weekend, and m-a-n..did i have fun!!! I was invited to the annual conference hosted by Saldalha Christian Fellowship. And I saw God move in a tremendous way...

In the opening service on friday, my best friend and brother, Pastor B, shared on the most profound subject..."connecting with the Supplier, not only the supply." It was really a powerful message.

And we embarked on a community outreach to impoverished societies around Saldalha Bay...and i was really moved. Some of the dire circumstances that people live under are really horrendous...however, we spend the whole day telling them about the love of Christ and bring the word of encouragement to destitude families...

And the same saturday evening, we had Prophet Spofana sharing on the message of deliverance....it was really eye-enticing to see many people being delivered from demonic possessions...

AND YESTERDAY....SUNDAY MORNING...YOURS TRULY BLESSED THE PODIUM WITH THE BEST MESSAGE I HAVE EVER SPOKEN ON, THIS YEAR, "WHAT THEY NEVER TOLD YOU ABOUT THE ANOINTING"

You see Destiny Partner, the anointing is the divine enablement to help you accomplish the assignment for which your birth was authorised.

If you read 1 Samuel 16 from verse 11, an interesting account is told about a young man called David. After he was anointed by Samuel, we read in verse 14, "Now the Spirit of the LORD had departed from Saul, and an evil[a] spirit from the LORD tormented him. "

You see Destiny Partner, David's assignment was to be a king of Israel and God had to propel him to the palace somehow...I have spoken about the power of experiences many times in this platform.

Therefore, the situation of Saul was just an opportunity for God to elevate David to the palace...

It is there where we learn the first principle of the anointing....

#01. The anointing will always create opportunities for your promotion

It was in that situation where a man of David's caliber was needed. The bible tells us that Saul wanted a skillful player of a harp and the man in whom the spirit of God is upon....And David fit that description.

I will speak the whole week about these principles of the anointing but today, it is important to know; the anointing will always create opportunities for your promotion...

You are born with innate resources to accomplish that which you were born to do. Your destiny is within your reach. However, you need to be divinely enabled to accomplish your life assignment. And many times we don't understand or we underestimate the power of the anointing upon our lives...

In 1 John 2: 27 [NIV], "As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him. "

You are anointed but that anointing was for your assignment in life. It is important to understand and confess that you are anointed, because when you do then you begin to activate the power thereof...

You will see the anointing creating opportunities for you in business, in your career and in your studies. Our destiny is perpetual and you need the anointing to continue to the different levels of your destiny.

The anointing put David in the palace...it can also put you in the next dimension of your life....

This is Your Very Own...Life Coach saying...God Bless You.

Gehazi View Versus Elisha's View

Destiny Partner...

I trust that you had a great weekend....

Please allow me today to share with you the contrast between two powerful views that i have learned in the word of God, Gehazi and Elisha's view...And the basis of my article today is found in 2 Kings 6: 15 - 17...

"When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. “Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant asked. 16 “Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” 17 And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, LORD, so that he may see.” Then the LORD opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. "

2 KINGS 6:15-17 [NIV]

When the king of Assyria learned that Elisha, the prophet of God leaked his battle strategies with the king of Israel, he wanted to annihilate or destroy him.

As a result, he send out an army with horses and chariots to go and destroy this one man...Elisha. Isn't that amazing that a king would send out an army with horses and chariots to go and annihilate one man, one man?

In the above passage of scripture, we learn that Gehazi, Elisha's servant woke up in the morning, and saw that the entire city was surrounded with horses and chariots---their enemies. In other words, he saw that they were ambushed.

And the result? He was greatly terrifiend and dismayed...

His exact words of terror to Elisha were, "Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?

I love Elisha's reply..."Those who are with us are more than those who are with them."

This reply tells us that Elisha saw something totally different to what Gehazi saw...

And instead of him praying for the deliverance for the predicament that they find themselves in...Elisha prays that Gehazi's eyes may be opened...WOW!

WAIT...These two people looked at the same situation but their response was totally different...When Gehazi saw death, Elisha saw the platform for God to show himself as God...

Destiny Partner...I don't know what you are going through right now. You might be in the valley of a decision about something that you perceive as bad in your life. You might have done the worst sin ever but i have news for you....when you see death, i choose to see the perfect plan of God taking its place in your life....

Pastor At (My Priest) has being teaching on destiny alot these days and many times when the devil tries to steal my joy over a 'fatal' mistake i have done, i remind him that, "all things work together for good of those who love the Lord...."

When you see death and failure, ask yourself, What would Elisha see in this situation?

His FAVOURS Are Profusely Abounding In Your Life...

Destiny Partners...

Good Afternoon DP...what a lovely wednesday afternoon. I never get less excited about writing this articles. You, Destiny Partner are my daily inspiration. And for that, i thank you.

I want us to continue on the subject we spoke about on monday. We spoke on the subject; "You Don't Need money When You Have The Blessing"

I received so much feedback about that article...some even gone to extremes of calling me 'selfish'...that is; i withheld so much information that i was supposed to have shared.

And well...let's go lil'deeper then...

In today's main article, I want to show you how blessed you are to have a father like our God...

In Psalms 5:12 [NIV], "Surely, LORD, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield."

That's powerful.

Let me explain that scripture using this simple analogy...

Firstly, we know that the purpose of every product lies with its manufacturer. In other words, if i wanted to find out what else my LG Microwave could do, the best place to start would be; the manual provided by the manufacturer.

In the provision of a manual, the manufacturer was trying to provide me with a written document that spells out the purpose of the product that they made.

As a matter of fact, every product comes with a manual...

People are not exceptional.

The bible says in Acts 17:29 that, WE ARE GOD'S OFFSPRING. That means we sprang off God.Now...in our manufacturer and product scenario, who is the manufacturer? and who is the product? You are right. God is our maker And We are the result of his work....Product.

Therefore, if you wanted to find out THE POTENTIAL of a product called YOU, which option would you exhaust first to find out? you are right again...THE BIBLE.

In other words, YOUR POTENTIAL WILL REMAIN A POTENTIAL UNTIL YOU KNOW ALL THAT YOU ACHIEVE...WOW!

And if you don't spend time with the manual...who can you blame for lack of achievement IN YOUR LIFE....? YOU. WHY? BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT SPEND TIME STUDYING THE MANUAL THAT SPELLS OUT THE PURPOSE OF THE PRODUCT CALLED YOU...

NOW...BACK TO THE FOUNDING SCRIPTURE....

YOU LORD...SHALL SURELY BLESS THE RIGHTEOUS AND WITH FAVOUR SHALL THY ENCIRCLE THEM LIKE A SHIELD....

YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW IT YET....but there is a shield of favour around your life and it is the knowledge of that favour that separates you from those that have it and DON'T KNOW IT.

It is favour that brings promotion. It is favour that attracts right people in your life. It is favour that ensures that you marry the right woman/man. It is favour that makes your a rainmaker in your career. It is favour that soars revenues in your business. It is favour that makes you to be invited in academic honour societies. IT IS FAVOUR.

But the truth is; THE FAVOURS OF GOD ARE PROFUSELY ABOUNDING IN YOUR LIFE.

IF THE MANUAL SAYS THAT MY LG MICROWAVE CAN ALSO GRILL THE MEAT...DO I DOUBT THAT IT WILL GRILL WHEN I PRESS THE GRILL OPTION? NO I HAVE FAITH IN THE PRODUCT BECAUSE THE MANUAL SAYS SO...

BELIEVE TODAY'S WORD...AND CONFESS IT UNTIL YOU BELIEVE IT, "I AM ENCIRCLED WITH FAVOUR LIKE A SHIELD..." OVER AND OVER AGAIN....

God Brags About Your Daily Achievements

Destiny Partner

Good morning Destiny Partner. It is a beautiful morning indeed. I want you to remember as we start this day, that this is the day that the Lord has made, we must rejoice and be glad in it.

I have chosen to send you this article earlier today because i believe that it will change how your entire day spans out. We often forget that we are children of a proud father, our heavenly father.

And i always say, if you want to understand the nature of our divine father, it is important to spend time trying to understand how natural fathers behave. If you are not a parent yet, this article is P rated(i just had to.)

You probably have, in one stage of your life listened to a proud father or mother. They love to exaggerate the activities in their children's lives. When the child start crawling, they say, "Andrew.....has started walking!!!!!" And when their child is a bit older, the poor neighbours don't hear the last of, "thabo is a doctor now..." and at that time, the poor thabo is just doing his first year in medicine. Parents!!! funny creatures. (i understand...i am a father.lol)

When their children graduate in varsity, they want to throw the biggest graduation party ever. And mostly because they want the whole village to know their child is educated.

But however exaggerative parents can be, i believe we can learn alot about God in our natural parents.

In the book of Genesis 39, when Joseph fleed from Potiphar's house, i believe, it's not written in the bible that God called all the angels in his chamber, looked from above and said, "DID YOU SEE WHAT JOSEPH DID?" "HE IS MY SON...JOSEPH" our God brags about our daily achievements...

When you are in varsity and you get a distinction in a subject, i wish you could see what happens in heaven...God tells angels that you are already an engineer even though you have not even finished. When we excel in everything that we do, our God brags about our every achievement...

In business, we we clinche that deal, God says to the angels, "Did you see that...That's my son...a business mogul"

When we deal calmly with a situation that has everyone stressed. When we demonstrate integrity when no one sees us. I wish God can show you what happens in heaven; He calls all the angels and say come see, "that's my son" and "that's my daughter"

God wants you to effect heavenly change in your industry, business and in varsity. You should be exceptional in everything you do. Stop getting average marks in varsity. It disappoints God. He can't brag about you in heaven.

Destiny Partner, God brags on your daily achievements.

Your Life Assignment Dictates Your Birth Place

Destiny Partner

Hello Destiny Partner...What a beatiful wednesday afternoon.

And I want to declare to you today; your life assignment is a priority to God. And the whole crew in heaven is cheering for you to connect with the purpose of your life.

But before i start, i want to ask you some questions if you don't mind..

Is your work in line with the assignment God has for your life? Are you in the right career? What about the business you are in...Should you be doing business with those partners you are having? students, do you know what you should study after school?

If your answers to these questions is NO or i am not sure...Destiny AWAITS is your platform....

In today's main essay, i want to talk about your birth place...this is a little extract from a chapter titled, Your Life Assignment has a geographical locale" I felt like been generous today...again.

Let's start.....

It is our life assignment that determines where we are born. No one chose their birth place. As a matter of fact, we will never choose our birth place. It is our assignments that determines the kind of parents we are born from. Do you know why God chose Manoah and his wife to be Samson’s parents? They possessed the specific genetic makeup that was required to make Samson the strong man he had to be. In order to deliver the Israelites from the oppression of the philistines, Samson had to have strength. Therefore, his assignment dictated the parents he had to have. We never choose our birth place, our assignments dictates it.

If you grew up in a shack, you must know that your life assignment needed the lessons of that shack. Yes, that tough background you had; the abuse, mistakes, dismal failures and disappointments, they were all part of a planned set up. Your life assignment dictates our birth place. We had to attend that primary school. And that secondary school that you went to had in it the essential preparatory elements required by your life assignment.

God is able to use the sour experiences of our lives for our good. Never blame God for your past instead praise Him for it. When we saw the mess in our past, our God saw a message of our generation. When we saw ‘stupid mistakes’, God saw ‘brilliant lessons’. I have always asked God why He allowed my mother and father to divorce when I was 3, and the answer I got years later was; “That experience had the essential ingredients to make you what you assignment requires you to become.” And today, I look back and say, “Had the Lord not done what he did back then, I doubt if you could be reading this book right now.” God does not see as we do. He doesn’t perceive matters as we do either.

****It is our life assignment that dictates our birth place. But it is God that moves us to our functional place—our assignment’s geographical locale.****

In Genesis 2: 8-9 [KJV] we read the following, “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 8And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.”

There are two critical things that jump out of that scripture for me. Firstly, we learn that Adam was formed from the dust of the ground, and God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. And secondly, after God formed him out of the dust of the ground, he planted a garden eastward in Eden, and THERE he put the man whom he had formed.

There are two unique places in the life of Adam;

1.There is a place where Adam was formed from the dust of the ground, where God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life.

2.There is a garden where God put the man whom he had formed.

It was in his birth place where Adam was made. We are told that it is there, where God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. In other words, in Adam’s birth place, he was capacitated for his next place.

The resources that he will need in his functional place were deposited in his birth place.

But it’s important to note, that the bible continues to tell us, after God planted the garden, He put Adam there. In other words, there was a specific place where Adam was going to function. The garden was Adam’s functional place.

As a matter of fact, in Genesis 2:15, we read the following words, “And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.”

It is important to remember that God put him into the Garden of Eden.

Your Experiences Are On Your Life Assignment's PAYROLL...

Destiny Partner

Good afternoon, destiny partner. I trust that you having a great day. If not...brace yourself because we are about to turn your day upside down. God is about to blow your mind.

In today's main essay, i want to show you from the word of God that, your experiences in life are on your life assignment's payroll. In other words, things that happen to you have to happen if you are to be moved into your functional place.

Are you ready?

In Exodus 2: 1- 10 [KJV], “And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi. 2And the women conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months. 3And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's brink. 4And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him. 5And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it. 6And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, this is one of the Hebrews' children. 7Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter; shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee? 8And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother. 9And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the women took the child, and nursed it. 10And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, because I drew him out of the water. “

I want to speak to you today about the story of Moses. I trust that you really learned a lot yesterday in the story of Joseph. I showed you yesterday that heaven has a strategic agenda in your promotion. In other words, be it in your career or business, when you go up the ladder, the kingdom within which you are citizen benefits.

I have a chapter in my new book, where I demonstrate from God’s word that our life assignment has a birth place and a functional place. And that in between your birth place and your functional place, God would use experiences, both good and sour to propel you into your functional place. Destiny Partner, you can attest to the fact that I have spoken a whole lot about the experiences that God used to propel Joseph into Egypt, which was his functional place.

Let us explore today how God used experiences in the life of Moses to propel him into his functional place. In the above passage, we learn that Moses was born in the worst of times. In the time where Pharaoh, the king of Egypt had decreed annihilation of all male infants of the Hebrews, Moses mother decided to hide her child in the Nile. But you know what is amazing about this story? When all the other children were dying under the Nile, Moses was floating above it. Let me remind you, heaven does not authorize birth until purpose is established.

It is only after you know the purpose of Moses’ birth that you will understand what his experiences were serving. I will get to that in a minute. In the above passage, we learn that, as Moses was floating above the Nile, Pharaoh’s daughter went down to bath. It was there where she saw the ark in which Moses was in. Was that a coincidence? No. I can almost assure you at this stage, heaven had a strategic agenda. Let’s go deeper.

As Pharaoh’s daughter saw the child, the bible tell us that she fell in love with him. And after Merriam’s recommendation, she ordered for a Hebrew mother to be called in order to feed the child until he was grown. Isn’t God amazing? Moses’ mother was paid to raise her own child.

I believe at this stage, the question we should be asking ourselves is; what was God’s plan for moving Moses into the palace? What was heaven up to? I will tell you in a second. I even wondered how Pharaoh allowed for Moses to grow up in the palace while he was the one who ordered for the annihilation of the Hebrew children in the first place.

God wanted Moses to spend time in the palace, to learn the protocol of the palace and to build the track record in the palace such that, when he makes an appointment with Pharaoh who is alive in the future, he would be known in the palace.

When Moses had learned the protocol of the palace and he had gone to see how his kind lived, the bible tells us about another experience. Moses witnesses an Egyptian and a Hebrew fighting, he defends a Hebrew and kills an Egyptian. Let me repeat this; he killed an Egyptian. And after he learns that the story was known, he flees to the land of Midian.

In Exodus 3: 1 [KJV], “Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb.”

Moses was born to lead the biggest march out of Egypt to the Canaan. That was the reason his birth was authorized. But do you realize that Moses started in his functional place, and was moved to the land of midian, his birth place and only to be moved back to his functional place?

You must remember, in your birth place, you are formed but in your functional place, you function. Moses needed to be formed or trained. In his life assignment, he was required to become a shepherd. In Moses, God needed a shepherd. And that shepherd was made as he led the flock to the backside of the desert. Moses might have thought that it was a job to be a shepherd but God knew that it was his life assignment.

After God saw that he was ready to lead the biggest march ever out of Egypt, he made known his life assignment. You probably remember what God said to Moses. The burning bush is a classic story in our Sunday schools

If Moses had not killed that Egyptian, he would not have ended up in the land of midian. And if Moses had not spent time in the palace, he would not be known by anyone in the palace, as a result, he could not have had a opportunity even to see Pharaoh...

Your experiences are on your life assignment payroll…

Heaven Is Cheering For Your Promotion

Destiny Partner

Good Morning Destiny Partner. I trust that you are great. I can never thank you enough for allowing me to invade your cyber space every weekday with this life-changing article. The feedback i receive everyday is really humblying.

Destiny Partner, I can assure you, your today will never be the same again.You are going to be blown away, as i demonstrate to you from the word of God that heaven is cheering for your promotion.

I believe that God has made everything to function within a specific environment. A tree won't survive without the soil, the same way a fish wont survive outside the water. I also believe that every person of earth has a functional place.

Genesis 39: 1-5 [NKJV], “Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. And Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him down there. 2 The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. 3 And his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made all he did to prosper in his hand. 4 So Joseph found favor in his sight, and served him. Then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority. 5 So it was, from the time that he had made him overseer of his house and all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake; and the blessing of the LORD was on all that he had in the house and in the field.”

I want you to realize something in this piece of scripture; when Joseph arrived in Egypt, he was sold yet again, but this time, it was not to the Ishmaelite merchants, it was to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard.

And Potiphar’s objective for buying Joseph entailed to employ him in his house as his servant. When I read that, I said to myself, “There must have been something about Joseph that the Egyptian liked.” In verse 2 of that scripture, we read some of the most profound words in the bible…”The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.”

It is out of that scripture where we learn the true definition of success. Joseph arrived in Egypt as a slave. He got into Potiphar’s house with nothing but God. And then we read, The Lord was with Joseph, and he was a successful man…

How does God define success?

# 01. Success / Prosperity is the empowerment to accomplish or achieve things that you would otherwise not achieve.

The third verse says, “And his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made all he did to prosper in his hand.” When you operate with Joseph’s blessing, your employer must SEE that the Lord is with you. Everything you touch in your employer’s house must turn into gold.

It was only after the employer had seen that everything Joseph touched turned into gold that we read, “Then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority.”

Check the order. It says, his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord made all he did to prosper in his hand, and then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority.

Your promotion lies with the visibility of the blessing on your life. Joseph was promoted when his employer saw the favour of God upon his life. If you don’t get promoted at work, maybe you have not operated in the blessing of Joseph in your employer’s house.

You see, heaven had a strategic agenda in Joseph been promoted. The bible tells us that, Potiphar made Joseph an overseer. Yes, an overseer. In today’s terms, we could use the word General Manager. Even if I repeated that word, you wouldn’t understand the meaning of that function, not unless you studied under the auspices of economic management and sciences.

A person who majors in General Management has more responsibility than anyone doing a specialized discipline. They do accounting, marketing, business management, economics et cetera throughout their studies…

In other words, when someone graduates with a specialized degree like marketing or accounting, a General Management student is capable in all those disciplines….did you know that? Only business students will understand.

How much does an average BCom degree cost? R50000? Joseph acquired the skills in Potiphar’s house for free…

Never underestimate the role that your job plays in the assignment that God has for your life. I often say, look at your roles in your company, they might give you a glimpse of where you are going. God uses our jobs sometimes to facilitate our life assignment…

I want to finish with bad news though...you can never operate with Joseph's blessing until you are moved into your functional place...

And in case you asking yourself how to connect with your functional place....ORDER MY BOOK....LOL

*Things We Learned Today*

01. Success / Prosperity is the empowerment to accomplish or achieve things that you would otherwise not achieve.

02. Promotion in your job depends on the visibility of the blessing upon your life—Your employer must SEE that the Lord is with you.

03. Your Employer is blessed on your behalf---when the turnover increases, you must know, its because you are there. If you don’t believe me, scroll up and read that scripture again.

04. Heaven always has a strategic agenda in you been promoted

Never Major With Minors

Destiny Partner

"Never Get Caught Up In Trivialities. You Will End Up Majoring With Minors. And The Truth is; In Varsity, We Can Get Promoted To The Next Grade, Even Without Passing Our Minors."

Thapelo Jonas

Hello Destiny Partner...I trust that you had a fabulous weekend because i SURE did. I have a confession though....i missed you guys. I enjoyed helping people in Qwaqwa to connect with their life assignments.

There is nothing that can replace a person been in their functional place...

In today's main essay, i chose to talk about a subject very close to my heart. As a life coach, i feel that it is my duty to help you destiny partner, to understand how to class the obstacles of your life.

Our obstacles fall into two categories; MINORS and MAJORS.

Any person that has done some geographical studies in primary will tell you, we were taught that Mount Kilimanjaro is one of the tallest mountains in the world. People often ask me why i disagree with that. And then i tell them, the answer to that rendition depends on the position that it is viewed from.

If we can place one person on the bottom of Mount Kilimanjaro, and ask them a closed ended question," is Mount Kilimanjaro one of the tallest mountains in the world?" Chances are, they will say YES.

However, if you take another person and put him on an airplane, and ask them the same closed ended question," is Mount Kilimanjaro one of the tallest mountains in the world?" Chances are, they will say NO.

You know why? The answer to that question lies with the POSITION from which the mountain is viewed.

Therefore, from the bottom of kilimanjaro, it can be said that it is one of the tallest mountains in the world. But from the plane's view, it is as small as a marble....

Did you get that?

Destiny partner, allow me to tell you this afternoon; when the devil is busy flaunting your flaws--what you can do and cannot do in this life, and when he reminds you that your best days are behind you not before you, you ought to remember that the definition of flaw in the devil's vocabulary is totally different from that of God.

Did you know that the devil's objective in reminding you of your past, weaknesses and failures is to make you WASTE time pondering around things that Jesus has paid for on the cross while he delays you from becoming what God has made you to become?

The devil understand the importance of time and season. And it is his utmost ambition to delay your meeting with destiny by reminding you of your flaws, current mistakes and supposedly fatal failures.

He wants you to major with minors.

The bible declares in the book ,2 Corinthians 12:9, "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." [KJV]

Have you thought about the scripture that says, "His mercies are new every morning?" In other words, when you are in Christ, you have a clean slate every morning....halleluya!!!

When today was perfect...there won't be a need for tomorrow.

In Romans 8:26, we read, "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."

Never spend time pondering about things that Jesus has paid a ransom for. I call that majoring with minors. Your flaws have been paid for in FULL. The devil knows it. Jesus knows it. God the father knows it. Its only you who has not received the memo yet.

In the book of Genesis 37, we learn about the harsh experiences that Joseph had to go through to get to Egypt. At one time, his brothers sold him to the merchants going to Egypt. He sat as a slave in the caravans of the merchants going to his functional place....

I have got news for you this monday afternoon...what the devil thought was a horrendous experience, God thought of as a mode of transport to deliver Joseph to his land of Destiny.

Joseph could sob and complain about the harsh experience, but that could have been majoring in minors....

I want to tell you that we serve a GREAT GOD. He has a destiny for you. You were born for such a time. The strategic solutions for the anomalies or disorders of your industry or sector lies in the loins of your experiences. You are God solution to the world.

You must remember that you can do it. You are capacitated to prosper. Its not the question of If but its When...

Don't let the devil WASTE your time....the bible says in Ecclesiastes 3 that for every purpose on earth, there is a season...that includes your purpose.The devil is afraid of your launch. He plans to delay you.

Never Major with Minors....

It's time to seize your opportunities. Start that business even when the devil reminds you that you are not Richard Branson. Invest in Real Estate when all your peers tell you that you are not Donald Trump. Invest in the stock exhange even when you are told that you are not Warren Buffet.

Thinking about what you cannot do means majoring with minors.

Never major with minors.....

3 Important Principles of Our Life Assignment

Destiny Partner

Proverbs 18:16 [KJV]: "A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men. "

Good Afternoon, Destiny Partner. I am always excited when i get an opportunity to write this life changing article for you. My birth was authorised ONLY to help you connect with your life assignment. It is only when I do that I feel that I am in my functional place. Thank you for looking out for a Destiny AWAITS article every weekday...

I am truly humbled by the feedback I received over yesterday's snippet on my new not-yet-titled book. And thank you for those title suggestions i am receiving. Please keep on inboxing me your suggestions.

3 Important Principles Of Our Life Assignment

Every single person on planet earth is born with unique natural talents, aptitudes and special abilities that are crucial to those people accomplishing their life assignment.

You see, the bible says, a man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men. It is important to understand though, that your gift has a potential to make you a star in some room but it's also important to know that you can't shine in every room.

You were designed to be exceptional in something.There is something that you were born with, that, in approximately 6 billion people we have on planet earth, not one else can do them they way you do.

And that which you are exceptional in, can help you a great deal in discovering the assignment of your life. We discovered yesterday that our lives have a predetermined purpose.

I get frustrated when i see people trying to become masters of everything. You were born to become exceptional in something but not in everything. It is impossible that you will master everything. You were designed like that. And such efforts often lead to frustration and misery.

God has capacitated you to become exceptional in something...And your gift was deposited into you, to enable you to accomplish your life assignment.

Some people have exceptional singing abilities while some have exceptional communication abilities. Whatever it is you were born exceptional in, it serves your life assignment.

God has made you exceptional maybe in singing because that gift is essential to making you effective in your life assigment. You don't know, but maybe God has laid the healing of nations in the melody of your voice.

Who knows, God has made you exceptional in business because that gift has the potential to provide you with resources that God can use to answer some of humanity's predicaments. In your exceptional business gift lies provision for erecting schools in Sudan and Somalia...you were capacitated to accomplish God's plan not yours.

God has made some exceptional in communication because in that gift lies attorneys, authors, motivational speakers, television presenters and politicians which are crucial to effect heavenly influences in our contemporary society.

You are exceptional in something...

Whatever it is you are exceptional in, it should help you accomplish the life assignment that God has authorised your birth for. There are 3 important principles of your life assignment that you need to understand...

1. It Carries With It The Position Of Influence

If where you are right now, be it in your business, career or any endeavour, you don't have a position of influence, then you are not in your destiny yet. God's ultimate plan is to push you into a position of influence to effect changes are in line with His word in particular industries or sectors.

2. It Always Benefit People

God never authorises a birth for one person. When we are in our destiny, our assignments should always benefit other people. The constant question you should ask yourself is, "Is my gift benefitting my society?"

If you are in a job that does not affect the bottom line...you are not in your destiny yet....

3. And It Always Brings God's Answer To Humanity's Predicaments

You are God's solution to the world. Your gift must answer crucial needs of society and if not, then you are not in your destiny yet. Every person who is born on earth, their birth was authorised ONLY because they were 'NEED MEETERS'
