Abandoned by God | Fulfilling Your Destiny | David Wilkerson
Description
David Wilkerson warns against missing God's destiny for your life by examining biblical figures who started well but fell away, calling believers to fulfill their true destiny of becoming Christ-like.
Destiny Defined:
God's ordained purpose and plan for your life - what he has preordained you to be and become
Biblical Examples of Missed Destiny:
• Saul: Chosen and anointed by God, but sought human approval over God's will. Ended his life abandoned by God, consulting a witch
• Samson: Born with divine purpose, raised as a Nazarite, but lived with outward holiness while his heart pursued sensual sin. Died in chains, blind and broken
The Root Problem:
Both men knew their calling and walked in it initially, but allowed pride, compromise, and fleshly desires to derail God's plan for their lives
The True Destiny:
Your ultimate destiny is to become like Jesus Christ - to be conformed to his image and reflect his character in your life
The Holy Spirit's Role:
The same Spirit that convicted Saul and Samson is available to lead, guide, teach, and transform believers today. We must not resist his promptings
The Call to Action:
Confess sins, surrender your heart completely to God, and commit daily to becoming more Christ-like through the Holy Spirit's power
