THE PILGRIMS GUIDE THURSDAY JUNE 26, 2025 PURPOSE DISTINCTION A WORD FROM THE WORD: "It is the one and only Spirit who distributes all these gifts. He alone decides which gift each person should have." 1 Corinthians 12:11 NLT. Apparently, you have the desire to see all your children make it in life and service, as a parent, but you also have an innate understanding that every one of them possess unique talents, and as such, unique destinies, even twins, triplets, quadruplets and other categories of multiple births. While growing up, there's this saying among the adults which is still a truthful fact today - 'no competition in destiny,' but again, it must be realised and recognised that destiny can be aborted by oneself either knowingly or unknowingly. If you do not do well to align with God's will for your life and service, you might end up thwarting or at worst aborting your very destiny. It is a fatal mistake of eternal proportions to desire to be like someone else instead of seeking out who God has destined you to be and align yourself to His enabling grace to become. Don't compete with or compare yourself to another person, who (probably) is aligned to God's will for their life, and fulfiling their destiny. There's no mistake with God, He is perfect, and all His ways are just. Learn to go beyond other peoples' opinion about you, and endeavour to know God's opinion about you, and if you're gliding on the wings of the Holy Spirit, your guide, in fulfilment. You're God's special purpose vehicle, align yourself with His will for you, and see yourself fulfil your destiny effortlessly. PRAYER BULLETS: LORD Jesus, I have resolved by Your grace not to subject myself to competition with others on the matter of my destiny. Endue me with Your power to align myself with Your will for my life and service. FURTHER READING: Hebrews 2:1-4; Ephesians 2:10; 1 Peter 4:10; Romans 12:4-6. __________________________________________ ©️ Amaobi Nwachukwu 2025.
