The soil and the seed is a symbol
of destiny, deploying the illustration of the Parable of the seed sower in the
Holy bible as a case study in; LUKE
8:5-15; he pointed out that the seed is the word of God (verse 11) and
those that fell on good soil or fine soil, are the ones who after hearing the
word of God with a fine and good heart, retain it and bear fruit with
endurance. Now, the question remains “What
type of fruit are you bearing depending on the seed sowed in your heart?” That
is what will determine your future as well as shape your destiny today. The
soil is the symbolic of human heart which is fertile land for production and
everything you give the heart as a seed is what it will deliver to you and the
society, weather good or bad as a fruit. The fruit bears according to its
species and that is why Mango seed can never bear orange neither will orange
bear mango. Let us look at different fruit in the Holy bible as a case study. (Galatian 5:19-21) points out the desire of the flesh as a fruit one bears for satisfying the
need of the flesh which tend to become corruption while the same (Galatians 5:22-25) also points out the
fruit of the spirit which emerged as a result of the seed planted in the heart
of men. So what are we trying to derive
home? We have derived home that the type of seed planted in your life is
what shape your life and destiny when it is planted on a good soil. So, your
character and behavior is the product of information you gathered, the wrong information
puts you on a wrong track or lane and association while the right information puts
one on a right lane and association. And this is because information brings
transformation. This is why, when you show me your friend, then, I will tell
you who you are, why? Because of the fruit your friend bears. For instance, the
bible said that “Bad communication
corrupt good manner” (I CORINTHIANS 15:33). So, your destiny is a product
of information and association. Who are your associates?
Having established this fact, the
question remains, how does this affects or influences our economic, social and
political standard of living in the society? People will like to give you
different excuses why they could not meet up with targets in life and destiny
or why they fail to achieve aims and objectives, even after making effort; but
it is not their fault, why? Some people are impatient in nature; remember that
patient is one of the fruit of Holy Spirit which must adopt self-control as a
measure in pursuit. Relating this to the above Chapter 8 of LUKE, VERSE 15 says that “they retain the word of God and bear fruit with patient.” You cannot put two things or two hands into the
mouth at once; you have to put one and give it time to exhaust its utility.
What have you started last year? Are you still in queue for result after your hard
work or have you jumped protocol out of greediness to aspire the one that is
not own? I mean aspiring another thing entire different from main objective and
perspective. Now, look! Once you give up expectation from your professional
input out of hard work; you have lost focus in life and destiny, because it is
that your focus that will build you into the person you will become in the near
future. And once you lost focus, the dreams will fizzle out and once it fizzles
out; you will begin to exercise impatient towards it and want to venture into
another track, and another vision will begin. So all your hard work and focus
had been sold to may be someone aspiring your dream because someone is waiting
for you to give up out of frustration, even pushing up with obstacles and
oppositions so that you throw in the towel; but the funny thing is that the
dream will still fizzles out of that person’s hand because He/she may lack the
expertise to keep the dream. This is why people become Jack of all trade but
master of none. You must give time for every dream; especially the ones that
come with divine Ideas and Revelation.
Your vision is your ladder to your divine
destiny (HABBAKUK 2:1-3). This is
why you don’t throw in towel easily to opposition in your dreams and destiny
because every business must pass through the teasing period as a refining furnace
before it stands out as gold, this is why you must not despise the days of
little beginning in business and hobbies as a destiny. Just as we used seed
sowing here as the word of God; seed sowing can also be seen from another angle
which is positive or negative attitude or hard work, no wonder it is written in
GALATIANS 6:7-9 which say “Do not be misled; God is mot mocked, for
whatever a person is sowing, this he will also reap If we do not tire out “.
So, the choice you make today is a seed to your destiny.
On the other hand, people are good
in looking down on other people’s dreams and vision, forgetting that one is
custodian of the choices he/she makes as sound personality. And that is why you
don’t have to blame your economy for your failure in life and destiny. You blame
yourself first; because it started by neglecting the things you have to put
right for your business to move forward. You don’t dabble into business when
you are inexperience in Job career as a professional, your experience in
keeping up with the demands of other people’s business outfit, is a material
that will give you endurance to tackle the demands, challenges and hurdles that
will escalate from your own. You gather such momentum by working for other
business outfit in life and destiny (LUKE
16:10-12). So, you have to be faithful in what is little; before you can
actualize much in life and destiny. How many people or companies have you
managed their affairs before starting your own as a professional? It will tell
on your own business because these are durable qualities that makes your
business outstanding from others; it is like skill acquisition, you can never
beat a skillful man in his field of profession because he knows how to repair
His machines if they breakdown without paying a dime to anybody. Now, know that
the more you work for others in your field, the more skills you acquire to become
model in your future dream of business or aspiration but you have to be time conscious
in life (ECCLESIASTES 3:1-5). When
you understand divine timing, you will learn to position yourself in a right place
you supposed to be by your age and that is all about divine placement; this is
because time waits for nobody in life. Your colleagues cannot be managers and
you are still running as an applicant; this is why some people resign their
work and become self-employed. You have to be wise, and don’t insult yourself
all in the name of working (EPHESIAN
5:15-19).Long lives Civil Service Commission and Federal ministry of Labor,
