by Rev Destiny - August 2007

Hi Lovelies - Tonight The Lord is really laying in my heart to give a word to those who may be contemplating separation or divorce. Satan's master plan is to ultimately destroy the family unit and he has had thousands of years to perfect his cunning manipulation.

As a Christian, I am always amazed at how many marriages & church kingdoms that I have personally witnessed come crumbling down. Of the many, many acquaintances that I have known, one thing remains a given and that is, 'division always starts with a seed of doubt.'

be aware & beware, for temptations will come

"14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. 15 Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death" James 1: 14-15. When we allow a thought (do not be deceived, a thought is all it takes) to draw us in, we give satan an open door. Beloved, you cannot control what satan uses to tempt you but you can choose to receive his advances or fight them off with the Sword of The Spirit. Rev always says it like this, "It's not the first look because that's human nature and we cannot walk around with blinders on, But it's that second look that will lead you astray." Snares and traps are ever present and if you are to endure you must guard yourselves daily and completely with the fullness of God's Armor. "10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints" — Ephesians 6:10-18.

I once heard a sentiment given from a well respected female pastor who sadly to say, did not heed her own advice when referring to men and women befriending each other: She said this, "Never share intimate details of your relationship with the opposite sex, because satan will use this to lay seeds of temptation."

Before I met the Rev, my best friend was a guy. I never felt awkward sharing my life, my thoughts, or my dreams with him, but I later found out that in some way, he had hopes of something more for us. Beloved, it is best to guard your thoughts and your tongue whether male or female friends. Do not give satan an open door..why create an atmosphere for trouble?

Jesus stated it this way, “..Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’ "? (Matthew 19:4-5).

A Christian Word of Encouragement for couples regarding marriage from Rev Destiny.
I cannot Pray in Sincerity..

I once told someone who came to me for advice, that they needed to pray for their marriage rather than seek solutions contrary to The Word and God's Plan for their lives. This person told me that they could not pray for such because the very thought made them want to throw-up! So I simply told them that if they could not pray in sincerity for their marriage, then to pray for the desire to pray in sincerity for their marriage - A simple statement and most definitely not meant as any kind of light-hearted humor: I meant it then just as I mean it now. If you are unable to pray for your marriage, simply ask The Holy Spirit to pray for you. Ask The Lord Jesus for the desire to pray for the things that are pleasing to Him, and beneficial to your well being; Our Lord understands your heart, your thoughts, and your weaknesses, and nothing is hidden from His Eyes.

Beloved, you are not without an Advocate that was tempted in every way so that He could be your Strong and Understanding Tower. Hebrews 4:15 tells us, "15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin."

HERE'S THE NUGGET: Do not be deceived into believing that what could be is better than what is. Who told you so? Ponder this and trust that what is impossible for you, is not only possible but undeniable with God.

Until next time,
re-focus and re-build within.
Love, Destiny. .
