Your Destiny Is Greater Than Your Disaster

If the devil couldn’t kill you yesterday, why does he think he can succeed today? The devil is a liar and the father of all lies. Shout in the devil’s face!

“I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.”

Psalms 118:17

Look at what you’ve already been through. Look at the hell you’ve already walked through. Look at what you had to go through to get to the place you are now at. You are a survivor! Others would have lost their mind. Others would have given up and never made it, but not you, God is on your side. God is for you and with you. You are not alive today because of good luck. You didn’t make it through everything you’ve been through because of a cross you may be wearing around your neck. You didn’t survive all the attacks against you because you carried a rabbit’s foot in your pocket. (As I have said many times the rabbit had four feet and it didn’t help him, he ended up in the skillet!) You are alive! You are a survivor because God has been and still He remains on your side!

“If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, now may Israel say;

If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:”

Psalms 124:1-4

If the devil would have had his way you wouldn’t be here. If your enemies would have had their way you would be dead. You’ve been lied on, betrayed, slandered, and falsely accused; but nothing planned against you has worked. No weapon formed against you was able to bring you down.

“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.”

Isaiah 54:17

Even when you were in sin, God was with you. Even when you were out of God’s will, His hand was upon you and He had a plan for you. Maybe you’ve not seen the total fulfillment of His plan, but daily it is unfolding in your life. Even though you have not reached your destiny as of yet, at least you are on your way. You are making progress! It is not easy to be in between your beginning and your end, in between prophesy and the fulfillment of prophesy, in between the conception of a dream and the birthing of the dream. One of the hardest places to be is in the place called “in-between!”

In the place called “in-between” is where your faith is severely tried. It’s a place where the devil will try to get you to give up on your dreams and visions, to give up on your purpose and destiny. When you are between Egypt and the Promised Land, in between the pit and the palace, in between the crucifixion and the resurrection, the enemy will try to make you doubt the promises of God and even the call of God upon your life.
