The Topic of Seeds of Destiny Devotional for Today 27th July 2024 Is “No Comparison In Destiny”
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:12.
For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.
Thought for The Day: You will never attain greater heights in life if your yardstick of measuring success is comparing yourself with others.

PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE’S SEEDS OF DESTINY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE FOR 27TH JULY 2024.
It has been confirmed that no two individuals are exactly the same. Everyone has their own unique set of talents, gifting and potentials. That is why to compare yourself with people is to limit yourself in life and destiny.
A major hindrance to attaining greater heights in life is that of comparing oneself with others. You will never attain greater heights in life if your yardstick of measuring success is comparing yourself with others.
There are people that the earth is clapping for (because of their seeming success) but heaven is crying for them. How unfortunate it would be for the same people to be your yardstick of measuring success.
People may see someone’s seeming success and say, “This man is highly successful; he has defeated everyone; he has really won in life.”
But heaven’s verdict about him may be, “He hasn’t started yet.”
I read in a book many years ago about a great evangelist who saw all manner of great results and exploits in his ministry.
There was a time he had an explosive crusade in South Africa that recorded greats healings and miracles. When he saw these mighty works of God, he said, “The world is under my feet now.” Probably, he thought that because of the massive results and crowd turnout in that crusade, he was now on top of the world. He felt he had done what no one else had ever done. He was comparing his results with the previous exploits of other people.
Sadly, that was his last crusade.
After that massive and impactful crusade, he became incapacitated and confined to a wheel chair.
What a tragedy!
While I was reading this story, the LORD told me, “The man stopped where he was meant to start.”
Beloved, God’s measurement of impact is not just physical results, but the ratio of “your potential” over “your expression.” It is the ratio of what God put inside you versus what you pushed out.
Therefore, make up your mind to press deeper into God to fulfill His Purpose for your life. Do not compare yourself with anyone; rather, compare yourself with how far you have been able to fulfill God’s Purpose for your life. Aim high and set greater targets. Refuse to end where and when you are meant to be starting. Let no man’s results be your yardstick for measuring your success in life and destiny.
Remember this: You will never attain greater heights in life if your yardstick of measuring success is comparing yourself with others.
ASSIGNMENT:
1. Refuse to compare your results in life with other peoples’ results and achievements.
2. Compare yourself with the rate at which you have been able to fulfill God’s Purpose for your life.
PRAYER: Lord, deliver me from any tendency for comparing myself with people around me. I receive the grace to aim higher in the fulfilment of Your Purpose for my life, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
