Quotes about Destiny

Street cred is hard won and Destiny requires you to pay it forward. God helps you through hard times so you can help someone else.
- Bishop TD Jakes
Some think that emulating those we admire makes us more effective and guarantees the result they exhibit. The goal is not to duplicate someone else's greatness or purpose, destiny or creativity.
- Bishop TD Jakes
God never had to reach into the ground again, because the power to transform was intrinsically placed into man. All types of potential were locked into our spirits before birth. For the Christian, transformation at its optimum is the outworking of the internal. God placed certain things in us that must come out. We house the prophetic power of God. Every word of our personal prophetic destiny is inside us. He has ordained us to be.
- Bishop TD Jakes
Actually, isn't that what we want to know—our purpose? Then we can use the power to become who we really are. Life has chiseled many of us into mere fragments of who we were meant to be. To all who receive Him, Christ gives the power to slip out of who they were forced into being so they can transform into the individual they each were created to be.
- Bishop TD Jakes
Crushing requires purification. Do you know anyone who would purify something they do not intend to use? Your crushing cannot be the end, because God would never purify you if He didn't intend to use you.
- Bishop TD Jakes
Destiny is the push of our instincts to the pull of our purpose. That push-pull is what keeps the sun, moon, and stars from crashing. It causes the seasons to change from planting to growing to harvest to dormancy. If that divine push-pull, known as gravity, accurately sets the galaxies and the seasons in motion, will the same principle—the push of instinct and the pull of purpose—not set your life in the right motion?
- Bishop TD Jakes
If you're not living your destiny as you journey, you won't be able to live it after you reach your destination. Destiny is not only a destination, a goal, a dream, a purpose; it is an inner process of becoming all you were meant to be. You are educated before you get the degree.
- Bishop TD Jakes
The time to shift your priorities in the direction of Destiny is never convenient. There will always be a reason to put it off until later.
- Bishop TD Jakes
You can't let other people determine how far you are willing to go to reach Destiny because it's simply not their call. They don't get it, so don't worry about them!
- Bishop TD Jakes
Before you get to the place that is calling you, recognize whom you can talk to about your destiny and whom you can't. Dream killers will question your ability, your preparation, and even your worthiness to live your dream.
- Bishop TD Jakes
God's purpose for your life cannot manifest in the midst of chaos. You can't reach the place you were destined to be if you're constantly getting sidetracked. You cannot reach your life purpose when everything in your life is undisciplined, distracted, and disordered.
- Bishop TD Jakes
It wasn't the hand a person was dealt that determined the outcome—it was the person holding the cards who made the difference. And he'd laid his cards down long ago. At the foot of the cross.
