The general overseer and founder of God’s Greater Grace General Assembly (GGGGA) Int’l, Incorporated, Benin, Rev. Sunny Akenbor, has assured believers in Christ that they must certainly fulfil their destiny on earth despite challenges thrown at them in the journey of life.
He gave the assurance while speaking on the topic:”What is written, is written” during the Easter Sunday church service in Benin.
Rev. Akenbor said in the journey of life, there are thorns, thistles and other hurdles meant by the enemies to frustrate and make sure that their destiny is thwarted but God in His saving strength and grace will not let them materialize.
Akenbor noted that God can show you the crown of glory but might not show you the pains and anguish that you may have to undergo to get to the crown but His grace is sufficient for you to get there.
Reading from the book of Matthew 27:35-37, the clergyman said that the people were highly infuriated when Jesus was called the King of the Jews.
So they did everything humanly possible to prevent it from happening adding that all His challenges from birth to His crucification, were all targeted at stopping him but they all failed woefully.
“When they had crucified him, they divided up his clothes by casting lots.
“And sitting down, they kept watch over him there. Above his head they placed the written charge against him: this is jesus, the king of the Jews”, Matthew 27:35-37.
He also reminded christians about Joseph whose brothers sold into slavery, imprisoned by Potiphar for number of years and later rose to stardom in Egypt.
The founder of the church further assured believers in Christ that as the grave could not prevent Christ from resurrecting, nothing can bar them from fulfilling their destiny on earth stressing that, whatever they face on a daily basis whether sweet or sour, is a step and an inch closer to their beautiful destiny. So, they must have to cheer up and face life with a great hope and courage.
