Defined by God: Embracing Your Eternal Destiny. Holy people serving and obeying God will take responsibility for the creation, just as Adam took responsibility for naming the animals and just as parents take responsibility for naming and developing their children. The ability to name, define, and develop is an expression of the eternal nature of God Himself and we are responsible to develop that nature as we embrace our eternal destiny.
Daniel had a vision of “someone like a son of man coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient One and was led into his presence. He was given authority, honor, and sovereignty over all the nations of the world” (Daniel 7:13-14 NLT). Daniel's vision did not end there. “Then the sovereignty, power, and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven will be given to the holy people of the Most High. His kingdom will last forever, and all rulers will serve and obey him” (Daniel 7:27 NLT).
God chose us and defined us. He gave us an eternal destiny that requires continual development in Christlikeness. “But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy. For the Scriptures say, ‘You must be holy because I am holy’” (1 Peter 1:15-16 NLT).
God defined me. I embrace my eternal destiny.
