What does she do? Where do you find her? Who can become a Woman of Destiny? These are often questions that arise in people&#8217;s minds.<\/p>\n<p>Is she someone who has written a book or appears on TV or has a lot followers on Twitter? Are her videos on YouTube and do her likes on Facebook have to be over 500 000? Well this may all be true or some of it or even none of it. It is not about who knows her on earth but rather who knows her in heaven!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A Woman of Destiny is first of all known by Father God in heaven, her name is forever linked with Jesus Christ her Lord and Saviour and Holy Spirit speaks to her and about her as His daughter and friend. She is someone who believes in eternity and is surrendered to the will of God for her life. She wants what Abba Daddy wants, she obediently follows the leading of Holy Spirit and she joyfully sets about the day to do whatever her hand finds to do with all her heart, soul and strength.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Each and every one of us ladies has the potential and power to become a Woman of Destiny.<\/p>\n<p>God has plans for our lives. (Jer 29:11) tells us that. (Ps 139:16) declares that God was busy with each potential day of our lives, writing them in His book even before we were completely formed in our mother&#8217;s womb. You are a Woman of Destiny in the eyes and heart of the Lord all you have to do is\u00a0 begin to see yourself the way the Lord does and then expect to be lead by Holy Spirit each day so that He can help you walk in the paths of righteousness and it will be all for His Name sake!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Isn&#8217;t that a most profound thought? Because God has a plan and a path and a destiny in His heart for each one of us no matter who we are, where we grew up and what we are doing now. Today you can step into and onto that path of destiny and do exactly what the Lord has planned for you right where you are! He has seen every moment of your life. He knows what you have had to go through and all the ups and downs you have faced. He knows what your situation is like right now and He wants to show you how you are and can be His Women of Destiny today and each day of the rest of your life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Bible tells us that the steps of a good person are ordered by the Lord (Ps37:23) and He is the Master of turning all things for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. (Rom. 8:28) To be &#8220;good and called&#8221; means to have surrendered our lives to Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour because we cannot do it on our own we need the salvation He purchased for us on the cross and the power of the resurrection in our lives. So that is the beginning and foundation of being a Woman of Destiny.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After that is the seeing each day and each situation that comes our way as a potential in God for His purposes to be worked out in and through us. As a wife, a mother, a daughter,\u00a0 in our work place and at home. Wherever we are and whatever we are doing, there is a potential to be used effectively by the Lord for His plans of the path of destiny for our lives. Destiny is not a place or an achievement it is a process and a path of daily surrender to Him, listening carefully for His voice and direction and allowing Him to flow in and through you wherever you are. He is the one who knows where He wants you to end up and what He has planned for you to be doing. He is the one who opens doors and promises that those who are faithful in little will be given more. (Luke 19:17)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We must not worry about what we are supposed to become, like when we were little people, we used to be asked what we wanted to be when we grew up! It is well and good but when we have become that, a teacher, a nurse, a brain surgeon, a mother, an advocate or a receptionist, then what? Well that is the exciting thing because again Destiny is not a place it is a journey and day by day we can walk in it. Every day we are presented with choices and opportunities so let&#8217;s see ourselves as filled with God and therefore we are Women of Destiny and let&#8217;s make each day count for good and for God.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy who God has created you to be today and what He has given you today to do and walk with Him, watching Him unfold amazing times in and through your life. Be blessed because you are a blessing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>-Lindsey Lefebure<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who is a Woman of Destiny? What does she do?
