Too many people are today being deceived that their future is hopeless and that nothing good can come out of it. They have been lied to that change is not possible, that that's their destiny.
Some believe this lie because probably they have tried certain things for years and yet no positive change has occurred. Thus, they have concluded that their lives can never be better.
Does the name 'Jabez' sound familiar? He was given the name by his mother. Jabez means sorrow, pain, displeasure etc. Jabez was not responsible for his mother’s condition at birth yet the mother gave him a name that for a long while was controlling his life.
The destiny of a man is not in the hands of another. It is in his hands.
God never creates anyone useless. There is no uselessness in God. He is an excellent God. Thus you are an excellent person.
Jabez accepted his situation until a day when he said to himself, "God is a good God and so my destiny cannot be hopeless but colourful". He rose and saw himself beyond been sorrowful. He saw that there is a God who changed the life of Jacob and made up his mind to call upon that same God that is the same yesterday, today and forever. His destiny as orchestrated by the devil through his mother was changed by him. Jabez had to rise to the reality that he was not created for pain, shame and sorrow. This applies to you- you can change your destiny.
"There are those who say fate is something beyond our command, that destiny is not our own. But I know better now. Our fate lives within us. We only have to be brave enough to see it."
