MEN OF DESTINY

HYMN

1.Give (our men) us o Lord thine unction

Anoint (them) us for thy work

Arise and set (them) us in motion

O Lord the man of war

2.Baptize (them) us Lord, with thy fire

And set out souls aflame

To burn and shine for thy cause,

Revive Your zeal in (them) us.

3.Refine (them) us Lord and cleanse (them) us

Clothe (them) us in holiness

Transform (their) our thoughts and nature

Till (they) we Your glory show

4.New hearts, more love, more passion

For souls in Satan's train

With hook or net use (them) us still

Make (them) us fishers of men.

5.Not gold, not power, nor knowledge

Will Thy heaven unlock

But prayer and faith and unity

Will bring the latter rain.

6.With tears and groans and fasting

O Lord help (them) us to pray

Travailing as in birth for souls

Till You revive the Church

Heb 1:9 You love what is right and hate what is wrong. That is why God, your God, has chosen you and has given you the joy of an honor far greater than he gave to your companions.” 

Ps 86:11 “Teach me, LORD, what you want me to do, and I will obey you faithfully; teach me to serve you with complete devotion.”

25:4 “Let me know Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths. 5 Guide me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; For You [and only You] I wait [expectantly] all the day long.”

When we are talking about “Men of Destiny”, we are talking about men full of His power, wisdom, of God’s character,  men that have been to the Calvary, working, have their move and being in the image of Christ, we talking of God’s generals.

We have couple of them in the bible and even in this present world whether  dead or alive, their legacies are evergreen.

Zacchaeus – Lk 19:3-4 “He wanted to see who Jesus was. There were many others who wanted to see Jesus too. Zacchaeus was too short to see above the people. 4 So he ran to a place where he knew Jesus would come. Then he climbed a sycamore tree so he could see him.”.

He sought the Lord against all odds 

Ps 42: 1-2 “As the deer pants for water, so I long for you, O God. 2 I thirst for God, the living God. Where can I find him to come and stand before him?”

Jer 29:13 “Then [with a deep longing] you will seek Me and require Me [as a vital necessity] and [you will] find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.”

PRAYER

• Their heart will sought the Lord, their longing will be only for their master.

•  Their hearts will earnestly thirst after righteousness.

• Nothing will have no meaning to them than a holy living, a life of Christ.

• Let there be a swift in their appetites, appetites only for right living in Christ

Noah – Gen 6:9 “These are the records of the generations (family history) of Noah. Noah was a righteous man [one who was just and had right standing with God], blameless in his [evil] generation; Noah walked (lived) [in habitual fellowship] with God.”

• He was a righteous man, blameless and walked with God.

Gen 6:22 “And Noah did everything as God commanded him.”

John 8:31 “So Jesus was saying to the Jews who had believed Him, “If you abide in My word [continually obeying My teachings and living in accordance with them, then] you are truly My disciples”

PRAYER

• They will abide in His word continually.

•  They will stick and graciously live according to the Word.

Mordecai – Esther 3,4,5,6 He was a man of integrity that refused his circumstances around him to jeopardise his relationship with God, even in the foreign land

He single-handedly raised a queen of a great nation

• (The temptation is so high to do otherwise in the environment we find ourselves) Lord help them to hold fast to your promises in the time of challenges, help them to remain faithful .

•  They shall be a great example, a great hero to their children and children around them.

•  Builders of their home in deed and character

Daniel and the 3 Hebrew boys: Daniel 1,3:46-49, 3

Because of their trust and steadfastness in their God, they were able to change the law of a Nation

• Lord our Men, sons, husband, uncle’s to be steadfast in you
