SEEDS OF DESTINY
DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY DR. PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE
TUESDAY 23RD OCTOBER, 2018
TOPIC: STANDING FOR GOD
SCRIPTURE: ...Joseph brought unto his father their evil report. Genesis 37:2.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Iniquity kills Destiny
The Scripture makes it clear that one key character of life and destiny worthy of emulation is Joseph. Joseph existed in such a realm of massive destiny and impact that he became a voice in a strange land. Everyone in Egypt was at his command; it was what he said that happened and his exploits cannot be wiped out both in time and eternity.
Now, what was the secret of Joseph? It is standing in righteousness. Joseph took a stand for God; he stood against the evil practices of his brothers. He was against the wind of worldliness that blew everyone in his time and consequently, he existed in an enviable realm.
Beloved, to be different from the world and make a mark for God, you must take a stand for God, you must stand out from the crowd; you must run against the evil wind of unrighteousness and iniquity. If Joseph had consented to the pressure and pleasure of immorality from Potiphar’s wife, his destiny would have been buried. In the same way, when you fall into the temptation of committing immorality and other sinful practices and habits, you bury your destiny. Iniquity kills destiny. On the other hand, integrity is key to fulfilling destiny.
Beloved, my counsel is, stand out from the crowd by standing on the ground of righteousness; refuse to do what everyone is doing if it is against God’s Word.
REMEMBER THIS": Iniquity kills Destiny
ASSIGNMENTS:
1. Endeavour to stand out for God in everything you do.

QUOTE: What you do determines how you end; how you live determines what you earn in time and eternity. Culled from 365 WISDOM CAPSULES by Dr Paul Enenche
DAILY READING: Jeremiah 42:1 to 44:23, 2 Timothy 2:1 to 21, Psalm 92:1 to 93:5, Proverbs 26:3 to 5
AMAZING FACT: Some palm trees can live for more than a century
TODAY IN HISTORY: 23/10/1760 – First Jewish prayer books were printed in North America
