DESTINY VULTURES
Wednesday, October 17, 2001
Eccles. 10:7 says, “I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth”.
This scripture says that many are not in the place they are supposed to be. The servant has taken over the horses of the princes and they are walking like servants.
To destine is to determine something beforehand. Destiny is what God has preordained for your future, what He determined that you are coming to earth to do. It is the inner purpose for your life. It is the real reason for breathing. It is a condition fore-ordained by God for you.
In this scripture, we see the one that has been preordained as a prince but he walks like a servant. Destiny is the life God has preordained. It is the purpose of God for your life. It is the plan and programme of God for your life. It is what one is really meant for. It is what you have been called to be and to do. It is why you were born, the expectations of heaven for your life. It is what is written in heavenly records concerning you. It is what God has in mind, the original intention of God before He created you.
Is life all about marriage, education, money and then death? Of course not! There is a regular spiritual accident that takes place and confuses man. There is an evil excellence that sits down behind all these and laughs men to scorn, knowing that men are not where they are supposed to be.
The vulture is a large bird of prey. It does not seize or tear its food. It does not kill other animals. It preys on those who have been killed or those who die naturally. It feeds on dead flesh. It is a bird a lot of people do not want to see. It is ugly. Most part of its head and neck is hairless. Vultures can smell death. There is something planted in them that lets them know when something is about to die. In the war, one of the most ugly things to see is for a warrior who is shot, and is fighting his last breath to live. The vulture waits patiently for the person’s death. They have sharp sight and sharp sense of smell. There are thousands of spiritual vultures waiting to feed, or already feeding, on spiritual destinies. All physical animals have spiritual counterparts.
There are more people living on earth now than we have ever had. Things have changed now. Information goes round faster than it used to. In 1940, there was only one product that was sold worldwide and that was Coca-cola. Now, things have changed and so many things have taken a global view. The vulture that ate up the destiny of Esau was an ordinary bowl of food. The destiny vulture of some people is comfort, and for some, it is lack of patience. For some, this vulture is deception. This is a warning message. Destiny vultures are in operation over mankind. Everything that exists was designed in the mind of God. God is a God of destiny. Everyone has a destiny in God.
I read about a man who had a revelation of heaven. As angels took him about and showed him different buildings. While walking with the angel, a man walked towards them and the angel greeted him respectfully. The man then asked the angel who the man was. The angel said the man was him. That man was the person he was destined to be, but he was currently living a second-class life, receiving second-class miracles and living in a second-class house. A few days later, the man died, never having fulfilled his divine destiny.
We should all pray the prayer of Joseph that the Lord should show us our divine destiny. Although he was in jail from age 17 to 30, he still fulfilled his divine destiny because the Lord had shown him what he was supposed to be.
Prayer Point: O God, show me a vision of my destiny in the name of Jesus.
There is nothing more tragic than to forfeit one’s divine destiny. A bird with a broken wing cannot fly. It is a disaster to forfeit the reason why you came here. There is no one that is exactly like you. Your genes and fingerprints are unique to you. Likewise your destiny. God had a hand in your life before the foundation of the world. When the enemy takes one away from the place of one’s divine destiny, it is a disaster. When Elijah was not in his place of destiny, he prayed and the Lord did not answer; He just asked him what he was doing where he was. God asked him, “Elijah, what are you doing here?” He was in a wrong place. Unless there is a contest, no one can win anything. If you don’t have a destiny to pursue, why are you here? Those who pursue their destiny are already subjects of attacks. When one is not where he is supposed to be, there can be no battle to win.
A professor of theology attended a gathering of semi-illiterate people. He spoke eloquently to them for about two hours. When he finished, a carpenter stood up and said ”We thank God for your life but may I ask you a question? Has God ever spoken to you?” The professor said “no”, but he knew that God speaks to people. He asked the carpenter why he asked the question. The carpenter then said God used to speak to him, that in fact the Lord spoke to him before he came to the gathering. God told him that the professor had a wife and three children. The professor then sat down and asked the carpenter to tell him more.
Your destiny can only be fulfilled when it is intact. There is a department in the kingdom of darkness that is called the department of destiny manipulation. When a person is manipulated out, prayers become hard work for him and Bible reading is almost impossible.
STRATEGIES USED BY DESTINY VULTURES
1. Rendering one ignorant of his destiny
Their strategies are many but the major one is to make a person ignorant of his personal destiny. John 8:32 “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free”. It is the truth known that sets free, The truth not known cannot set one free. Ignorance of your destiny means that you are living without a blueprint of your destiny. Moses had a blueprint and divine direction. He was told to see that he does everything according to God’s pattern. This means that he should follow the blueprint. Do you know the blueprint of your destiny? That course you studied, were you divinely instructed? Do you have a blueprint of your destiny? If you have a wrong blueprint, the entire structure you put on the foundation collapses. It is worth asking God to show you the blueprint of your destiny. One is then certain in the storms of life. Before a house is built, there must be a plan or blueprint. Without this, you cannot build a good house. Once the blueprint is not known, or it is lost, imprisoned or buried, the vultures have acted.
Pray like this: Every destiny vulture, the vulture of judgment shall destroy you in Jesus name.
2. Witchcraft manipulation:
They manipulate one out of one’s place of destiny into a place where he becomes a hewer of wood and drawer of water.
3. Sending Delusion to a person:
They cause false belief and mislead a person to do the wrong thing.
4. Casting a spell upon a person.
In this way, the person goes ahead doing the wrong things, goes to the wrong place to pray, etc.
5. They dispatch wicked spirits against the breakthroughs and destiny of a person
6. They use words with negative energy against a person. The person becomes confused and directionless.
HOW TO GET DELIVERANCE
1. Be born again
2. Pray to discover who you really are. John knew who he was. Jesus asked the disciples who the world thought He was because He knew who He is. Do you know who you really are?
3. Pray for your destiny blueprint to be revealed to you.
4. Disconnect yourself from negative people, those that will not make your life move forward. Companions of fools go into destruction.
5. Watch your tongue.
6. Walk in holiness, honesty and integrity.
Just as the vulture is patient, destiny manipulators can wait for a person to get old, or make a mistake and then they attack.
If you don’t know who you are, servants will take up your horse and then you, the prince would be walking on the ground. It is time for the Holy Ghost to reschedule your life. It is time to know where we should really be. It is time to analyze where you are and where you are going. and what you need to do to get there.
