Eph. 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
1. WE ARE PREDESTINED BY GOD TO WALK IN HIS IMAGE
We are God’s workmanship, made by God, made in the image and likeness of God. When we believe and accept the Lord Jesus Christ we are born again and are created in Christ Jesus. This was our destiny from the beginning when God created all things.
Rom 8:29-29 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
When you want to walk in your Divine Destiny you need to yield to the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the Helper, the Comforter, who will help to change you from curse to blessing, from death to life, and from darkness to light. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you be transformed into the image of Christ, and to walk in God’s glory.
2Cor. 3:17-18 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.
The Holy Spirit can transform you into the image of Christ. The Holy Spirit will start a holy work to help you lay down the “old life” by pointing out what you need to repent from and what you need to change in your life. The Holy Spirit will show you the cross where the Lord Jesus Christ died for you. At the cross, you can exchange your old life for the life of Christ.
Eph. 4:23-24 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.
After you lay down your old life, The Holy Spirit will help you to put on the new life which was created according to God. You can ask the Holy Spirit to help you to put on Christ, the new man.
Col. 3:9-10 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds, 10 and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him,
2. FINDING YOUR DESTINY SCROLL
We were predestined to be a son of God in the image of God. We can find in the Bible that the Son of God who was the express image of God had a Destiny Scroll.
Ps. 40:6-8 Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; My ears You have opened. Burnt offering and sin offering You did not require. 7 Then I said, "Behold, I come; In the scroll of the book it is written of me. 8 I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart."
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was the firstborn among many brothers, which means that we also should have a Destiny Scroll.
Ps. 139:16 16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them.
Eph. 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
We can come before the throne of grace, the Most Holy Place, to ask God to bring out our Destiny Scroll. Our Destiny Scroll can’t be rejected because Jesus Christ redeemed us and paid the price for our sins. Our Destiny Scroll can’t be denied because the Accuser, the devil, lost his case in the courts of heaven. The blood of Christ cleanses us from all our sins.
Hebr. 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Hebr. 10:19-21 Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, 21 and having a High Priest over the house of God,
The Throne of Grace and the Most Holy Place are located in heaven. We can have the boldness to enter the Holiest in heaven because of the blood of Jesus Christ. This means that we can come to the heavenly Jerusalem and ask the Judge of all to bring out our Destiny Scroll.
Hebr. 12:22-24 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels, 23 to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.
We should not be surprised because our Father Abraham was also looking for this city not made by man but made by God. This city went open when our Lord Jesus Christ died for us and opened the way and gave us access to the Father.
Hebr. 11:10 + 16 for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God. 16 But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
3. HOW TO OPEN YOUR DESTINY SCROLL
Now that we know we have a Destiny Scroll we need to find out how we can open our Destiny Scroll. The only One who is worthy to open your Destiny Scroll is the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross and paid with His precious blood. Only He is worthy to open the Scroll.
Rev. 5:1-7 And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a scroll written inside and on the back, sealed with seven seals. 2 Then I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the scroll and to loose its seals?" 3 And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll, or to look at it. 4 So I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open and read the scroll, or to look at it. 5 But one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals." 6 And I looked, and behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth. 7 Then He came and took the scroll out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne.
Jesus Christ has forgiven our sins and redeemed us from the curse of the law. When we lay down the old man and put on the new man, we are ready to walk in our destiny. When we put on the new man we can walk in God’s original plan like kings and priests to rule and reign on the earth.
Rev. 5:9-10 And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, 10 And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth."
God will communicate your Destiny Scroll with you through His thoughts toward you. This is what King David experienced who was in covenant with God and discovered his Destiny Scroll.
Ps. 139:16-18 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them. 17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! 18 If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You.
Jer. 29:11-13 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.
God will communicate your Destiny Scroll also with dreams, visions, and prophecy. You should be aware, and sensitive to how God will communicate His dream for you.
Acts 2:17-18 And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. 18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.
4. WHEN YOUR DESTINY SCROLL IS OPENED JUDGMENT WILL COME UPON THE ENEMY
We know from the book of Revelation chapter five, that God’s judgment came when the Lord Jesus Christ opened the Scroll and broke the seals. God’s Judgment came upon the devil, the world, and the unbelievers.
Your Destiny Scroll shows that you are God’s workmanship created in Christ Jesus. You were predestined to be conformed to the image of Christ. You should be Christ-like in this world and do the same works He did. When Christ came judgement came on the enemy. Christ cast out demons, healed the sick, and healed the brokenhearted. Christ destroyed the works of the devil and so should we. Christ Himself said that we could do His works and even greater.
John 14:12 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
Christ is giving us authority to destroy the works of the devil. Authority means to have the legal right to use power.
Luke 10:19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
When our Destiny Scroll is open, we can be the person we ought to be and walk in the image of Christ. We in Christ, and Christ in us, let’s destroy the works of the devil.
Rom. 16:20 And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
Heavenly Father, we are coming before You now. We enter into the Most Holy Place and give you praise. We thank You that the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all our sins. The redemption we have in Christ is giving us the legal right to ask You to bring forth our Destiny Scroll. We want to ask You that You help us to open our Destiny Scroll. Only You are worthy to open the Destiny Scroll and to break the seals. Give us the ability to receive Your thoughts, visions, dreams, and prophecies. We want to walk according to Your predestinated Destiny Scroll and not according to this sinful and demonic world. Lead us with Your Holy Spirit and help us to destroy the works of the devil. We thank You and pray in Jesus’ name. Amen!
