Inheritance – Destiny 4

Individual inheritance

Identity, redemptive gift and

destiny

Who am I – my identity

How am I made – redemptive gift

What am I made for – destiny or birthright

Jer 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.”

Psa 139:16 Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book (scroll) were all written The days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was not one of them. 17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them!

Inheritance Destiny 4

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Many people lost their destiny

Disobedience, unbelief, lacking faith

Jacob chose financial security over destiny – disaster

Esau despised destiny – no value

Lot coveted Abraham’s destiny

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Some people just don’t seem to fit

Nothing seems to work out

There always seems to be obstacles, road blocks, mountains in the way

They don’t seem to be able to get connected

Why?

What is going on?

Inheritance – Destiny 4 One cause is an alien destiny

Alien birthright belongs to someone else in addition to or instead of our own

God did not intend it for us

Creates obstacles, it obstructs you, hinders you, trips you up, blocks your path

Frustration, confusion

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Have a field you are trying to cultivate

In field there is an immaculately engineered train track

It looks good is well designed and built but goes nowhere

It is an obstacle and hindrance superimposed over your field

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Generationally or individually

Occult covenant exchange bloodshed – in

our generational blood line

Masonic oaths and curses

Fortune telling, tarot cards, tea leaves

Cult involvement does away with individual

identity in favour of group identity

Buy into vision of the group – lose identity

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Parents wanted another gender child

Parents wanted you to fulfil their unfulfilled dreams

Parents wanted to force you into conforming to the family tradition or business

We were not content with our destiny, did not connect to it

Inheritance – Destiny 4 We wanted someone else’s anointing, mantles, gifts, position etc.

We despised our own calling and yearned to be like someone else

We coveted what someone else was doing because it looked more glamorous, visible, or offered more kudos

Inheritance – Destiny 4 How do you know?

Deep down yearning for something else: daydreams, wishes, feel unfulfilled

Design seems fit for somewhere else

Life is not fulfilling even with achievement

Succeed in an area not designed for you feels like mockery or vanity

Alien destiny causes highly resistant obstacles within us

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Ps 139 your timeline is designed for

your success There are events, people, structures,

assets and resources at certain points to facilitate our destiny

Divinely ordered appointments to help us.

Alien destiny causes you to run into obstacles infiltrating your life

Internal and external

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Heroes of faith? Why? Inspire your destiny

or do you want theirs?

Mantles, impartation services and false prophetic readings – short cuts

Laziness – don't want to develop character to deal with issues – price is too high.

Instead of being willing to pay the cost for unpacking our destiny we look at a sparkly destiny of someone who has paid the price

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Short cut – zapped, build track in us

that is not connected

There are many who prey on the lazy

Someone is looking for legitimacy by

giving away destiny, mantles and

anointing etc. that don't fit in our lives

Culture of the instant – no value and

not willing to pay price

Inheritance – Destiny 4 There is the legitimate laying on of hands to

impart gifts, passing on the baton, or

mantles to release your own destiny

Constantly tripping over others’ tracks

Have I pursued, lusted for someone else’s

destiny?

Repent, renounce it, get deliverance from

the alien part

Who did it? Me, others, past generation?

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Lot’s destiny was not in Canaan

Abram was told leave family behind

Lot's destiny was in Ur or Haran

Wanted a part in Abraham’s destiny

Prospers on the back of Abraham

Took best part of the land

Lost everything at Sodom, lost wife

Incest produced Moab, Ammon

Inheritance – Destiny 4 No-one said it would be easy

Gen 1:28 God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it;

James 1:2 Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4 And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking in nothing.

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Every battle on the pathway of our

destiny was designed to create dependence and intimacy with God

Jesus has been there and knows

Avoiding the battles, conflicts, trials and tribulations hinders our maturity

We are cheating ourselves of experiential intimacy, growth and transformation

Inheritance – Destiny 4 God gives us a vision

We don’t get to see the whole of God’s purposes – need to pursue Him for more revelation

God often gives encounter to attract our attention

Introduction to get us on the path

Often there is initial opposition

Press through to overcome

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Adam lost inheritance but...

Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel.”

Promise restoration through conflict – enemy

Abraham – journey to inheritance

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Jacob lost inheritance, spent 400 years

in slavery of Egypt

Wilderness journey – Promised Land

inheritance restored

Promised Land needed to be

conquered

Where are you?

Egypt, wilderness or Promised Land

Inheritance – Destiny 4 David – family opposition, fight a giant,

king trying to kill him, lived in a cave with a bunch of oddballs, Philistines trying to rob him etc.

Jesus, birth illegitimate, Herod tried to kill him, temptation of satan, religious, politicians, family, disciples, garden

We have to be willing to fight for our destiny

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Joseph – vision – negative family

reaction to daddy’s pet

Dad reacts angrily to the notion of bowing before him

Believed vision – it all went downhill, betrayal, in a pit, sold into slavery

Egypt: Potifer’s house – false accusation

Prison: forgotten, let down etc.

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Joseph – coat of many colours, double portion, blessing, favour

Betrayal – lost his coat

New favour clothes – faithful

Accusation – removal of clothes

Prison – faithful

Abandoned and forgotten

Inheritance – Destiny 4 What is Joseph’s attitude?

Is he reduced to making the best of a bad situation?

No, God’s plan is alive and well

Reality is his destiny for ruling could never be learnt under his father’s protection

So God removed him to train him to rule.

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Problem that he was green and naïve

Needed prison experience to teach him about people

Animosity, political, jealousy – became streetwise

The prison prep school was the fast track to destiny

He never let opposition rob him of his dreams

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Joseph exalted, restored, new clothes, favour

Didn’t sulk, continued in faith, used his gifts to bless even in captivity

Forgiveness – did not hold his past against people

Saw God’s purpose in it all

God’s plan fulfilled – nations saved

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Zelophehad’s 5 daughters

Men only culture girls could not inherit land

Num 27:4 Why should the name of our father be withdrawn from among his family because he had no son? Give us a possession among our father’s brothers.” 5 So Moses brought their case before the Lord.

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Girls were not content to go with the

status quo in their culture

What the law said was not whole story

God's heart is bigger than what is currently revealed

Go to a higher authority – Moses takes it to God, who says ‘you must certainly give them property as inheritance’.

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Num 27:6 Then the Lord spoke to Moses,

saying, 7 “The daughters of Zelophehad are right in their statements. You shall surely give them a hereditary possession among their father’s brothers, and you shall transfer the inheritance of their father to them. 8 Further, you shall speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘If a man dies and has no son, then you shall transfer his inheritance to his daughter’”.

Inheritance – Destiny 4 Esther seemingly on a fast track to

nowhere

Orphaned

Kidnapped to a harem, separated, no dialogue, year of purification to spend rest of her life in futility?

‘Esther… you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?’

Saved a whole nation

Inheritance – Destiny 4 You do not know the signficance of your destiny

Be an agent for change

Be a world-changer

Be transformed, come into maturity

Don’t be hindered, restricted

Don’t give up, press on
