THE SUN SHINING AT ITS FULL STRENGTH - A PICTURE OF DESTINY
Revelation 1:16,KJV
"He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two - edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength."
Do you know there is a climax for the shining of the sun? That's why we can't compare the intensity of the sun at 9am with that of 1pm. One thing marks the difference. The intensity. The intensity of the sun in the morning is less powerful compare to the intensity of the sun at midday. This intensity increases as the day grows older before its declining in the evening or sunset.
The sun shining in its full strength gives us a picture of destiny and what peak God wants each of us reach as individual walker on the road of our calling. Just like the intensity of the sun varies with time, so also should our accomplishments on the road of destiny differs distinctly by time. The progression of time means our progression in the accomplishment of that divinely implanted sense of purpose.
Proverbs 4:18,KJV
"But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day."
The shining light means the shining sun. Its characteristic is that it matures in intensity until it reaches a place described as "perfect day." This 'perfect day' is a place of perfection of the intensity of the sun. I mean a level where the sun can no longer shine in intensity further. It simply means the peak of accomplishment for every man of calling, purpose and destiny.
Once you're born again, you come into the condition and position of having your human spirit know what is in the mind of God for you. Your spirit searches out your purpose as witnessed to it by the Spirit of God. From here, you begin to walk on the road of the calling - fulfilling destiny. The goal of God for each of us is that He will take us to the full release of our destiny. Do you know that a human being can be under-used. God doesn't want us to be under-used or behind the delivery of the marks He wants us leave on earth. This is why He wants us to be wise children who grow towards accomplishing destiny maximally as we go and grows also. It would be unfortunate if the yesterday of a destiny man doesn't have the testimony of being lesser than his today and his today being lesser than his tomorrow.
That's the picture that the varying intensity of the sun depicts at every hour of the day. Destiny can be discovered and taken to its peak of accomplishment. Grace is available for you like it was available for Paul. It must not be misused. Just ensure you're diligent to make your calling and election sure. In wanting to fulfill destiny, one's cooperation with God is important. So, team work with Him. As you fulfill a part of your destiny, you will have inner contentment on that side while there will be discontentment and a desire to reach out to areas that are far in front. God has planted a sense of purpose in us that nothing else can satisfy but Himself. This implanted sense of purpose is gauged by the satisfaction in our soul. May your soul not be lean. If it is, you're not fulfilling progressively. However, if it's fat, you have covered a lot of grounds with many already made gains.
PRAYER: Lord, I will not under accomplish in destiny. May the testimony of the just be mine.
