ARROWS OF DESTINY
Yesterday, we began to pray against the arrows of the enemy and I feel led to look at the arrows in two ways this morning:
1) The Arrows of Destiny
I prophesy that you, your sons and yourselves will be the arrows of destiny that will hit target!
I trust that these words will truly deliver you, you will be victorious on every side, you will be favoured on every side, you will be lifted on every side beyond measure in the name of Jesus!
Psalms 127: 3-5
God’s plan for the believer is to be the arrow of God to hit the target destined for him. You are an arrow shot forth by the Lord and I pray for you that you will hit your target! You will hit the target that God has earmarked for you as a person.
To hit that target means to maximize life, it means to reach fulfillment, it means to become whom God called you to be. Many are not fulfilling their purpose or reaching their destiny because they have not been properly launched.
This morning, as a servant of Jesus Christ, I declare and I decree that you are an arrow in the hand of the Lord and God is launching you to greater heights, God is launching you into favour, God is launching you into testimonies! God is launching you powerfully – He is launching you beyond measure!
Some people have launched themselves and they are therefore not reaching the target. This day, I declare to your life that the Lord launches you into greatness, launches you into purpose and launches you into achievement. You shall reach the target set for you in the name of Jesus!
I want to first of all pick on your children as the arrows of Destiny. I am going to speak into their lives before we come against satanic arrows. The Bible says that as arrows are in the hands of a mighty man so are children of the youth. Your sons and daughters are meant to be arrows in the hands of a warrior.
Today, I take your sons and daughters and I launch them into their destinies!
When the son hits the target he brings joy to the father.
Everyone on this altar, I prophesy today, your sons and daughters are rising and becoming mighty arrows hitting target in the might name of Jesus!
“…they shall not be ashamed but they shall speak with their enemies in the gate…”
The targeted son brings no shame but glory.
Today I prophetically draw your sons and daughters and I release them into destiny, I release them into purpose, I release them into glory. In this season of lockdown and the world is scared of what will happen, I release your sons and daughters into greater achievements!
You will hit the target set by your father in heaven!
“… they will speak with the enemies at the gate..”
Those are bold sons, those are sons who do not bring shame to the house.
Your daughters will do well, your sons will do well, they will be arrows of destiny, they will reach their destination, they will get to where God has earmarked them for!
Jesus was the arrow of the Father that was targeted at bringing souls into the Kingdom, to deliver people from darkness and He said “…all that the father has sent me to do I have done.”
On this altar today, I am praying for young men and young women some just go astray following the latest fad, looking at their parents like they don’t know what they are doing, Lord let there be a revival among our young people in the name of Jesus!
The Father knew what, why and when to release Christ from the bow as an arrow. “…and when the fullness of time was come; God sent his son.” Not just natural age but destiny-fulfilling season.
Your daughters will not miss their season, your sons will not miss their season, they will achieve the vision God earmarked for them, they will achieve the purpose God earmarked for them, they will hit the target, they will hit the bull’s-eye in the name of Jesus!
When I first came to the United Kingdom, we only had few TV stations, probably four or five. So if you were relaxing on a Sunday evening, one of the stations which you could only watch was a program called Bull’s Eye. Somebody would announce “its The Bull’s Eye!” When they threw the darts and it hit the bull’s eye, the score would be higher. In the spiritual realm also, when you hit the bull’s eye of purpose, when you hit the bull’s eye of destiny, when you hit the bull’s eye of the call of God for your life, you achieve what God earmarked you to be!
This day, I prophesy into your life and into the lives of the sons and daughters in your household, they will be arrows of destiny, arrows of greatness in the name of Jesus.
Now I want to turn to the fathers and the mothers, you are launchers of arrows. Fathers are meant to be warriors. It says “…as arrows are in the hand of a mighty man” if you look at some sons, they don’t know where they are going because dad didn’t know what to say to his son, dad did not know he is supposed to be a warrior, so he did not raise warrior sons.
I lay the hand of faith on our fathers and our mothers – but fathers in particular; I release a warrior anointing on you in the mighty name of Jesus! these fathers are supposed to raise sons and daughters who will know where they are going.
“…train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it”
Lord I pray for every family that they will become arrows of destiny, fathers will become warrior launchers of their sons into greatness, mothers will become warrior launchers of their daughters into destiny, they will be planners of strategy, planners of victory – raising achievers in the name of Jesus!
I decree to everyone that you will raise achievers! You will raise winners in the name of Jesus!
You will open your sons’ and daughters’ eyes to know the opponent so they can hit the target (2 Corinthians 2:11).
Every man or woman on this altar, you have been in this fight before your children, even if they tell you they don’t want to hear you, they know better than you, you don’t know anything, don’t stay quiet, you have become a warrior, but you were once the arrow someone else shot. ChurchGist. Don’t fold your hands and let social media shoot the arrows of your sons, don’t fold your hands and let somebody who is surfing the net saying crap and rubbish to your children launch them into the wrong place.
Your children will be achievers, your children will hit targets, your children will be sons and daughters of strength, Grace, ability and favour in the name of Jesus.
The son depends on the father’s power, only the father knows when to release the arrow.
I speak into the lives of men and women who are fathers and mothers, you will be the warriors who will release your children:
- you will not release them into death
- you will not release them into destruction
- you will not release them into failure
- you will not release them into shame
- you will release them into blessing
- you will release them into glory
- you will release them into joy
A warrior picks the arrow, the arrow does not pick itself (John 15:16)
Today, I declare and decree that the grace to raise champions will be upon us, the Grace to raise champion sons and Daughters will be upon your life, upon your family, in the name of Jesus.
The father’s Grace covers the arrow to fulfill purpose.
Every young man, every young woman at this altar who is about to go astray doing the wrong things, saying “it’s my life, I know what to do, I have the career, I can do this, I can do that,” Father bring the sons and fathers together, let these arrows be truly shot to hit targets in the name of Jesus!
A good number of those really doing well in the realm of the spiritual, material, physical and emotional, there was a person who drew the arrow and where fathers have not stepped in, once in a while, stepfathers or mentors have stepped in. But please don’t be alive and somebody else shoots your arrows – your sons or daughters.
This relationship of a father and a son is not a contract, it is a covenant. That is why you find that when a man is a man of God, if you relate to him on the basis of covenant, the Grace on him should shoot you forward; If you relate to him on the basis of a contract, there’s a limit to how far he can launch you. I have seen many people around great graces but they were never launched into greatness because their mind is contractual not covenanted.
I declare and decree this morning, the Grace you connect to will launch you far, will make you hit target!
Arrows of destiny are rising this morning in Jesus name!
Before we rebuke the arrows of satan and the ones attacking your life, I want to first of all speak to men and women in the house. Warriors launch the arrows, arrows hit the target, the relationship between the arrows and the person shooting the arrows must be committed and continuous.
You will hit the target!
It became terrible to begin to hear that a good number of kids who were carrying knives and killing people and hurting people on the streets of London were raised in the Church, the devil is a liar we cancel such a negative testimony!
I declare that today, sons and daughters in this house will hit the target! You will hit where God is sending you to!
The archer determines the distance, if you have found yourself in the hand of the poor archer, why are you there? Arrows can go far but they can only go according to the size of the shooter.
Upon this altar today, I launch you into great destiny, into purpose and into achievement!
You are the arrow in the hand of God, in the hand of Jehovah, don’t worry about where you’re coming from – from the house of failure and shame. ChurchGist. Father God is now your father and as arrows are in the hands of a mighty man, I declare and decree today that you will hit the target in the name of Jesus!
Everyone on this platform, before we speak of evil arrows, see yourself, you are an arrow of destiny, what is your function?
You are designed to fly, to be a high flyer!
You will fly!
You will reach places!
You will achieve!
An arrow is meant to go forth and an arrow is meant to hit targets and you will hit the target!
Isaiah 40:31
You are an arrow destined to fly. The design of an arrow is meant for it to go far. That’s why at the bottom of the arrow, there is a ‘V’ at the front of the arrow also, there is a ‘V’. ChurchGist. These things increase the density of the arrow – particularly the ‘V’ at the bottom so that the arrow can go far.
I prophesy to you, you will fly!
You will be a high flyer!
In the race of life, anything that will bring you down, God will expose it and expel it!
2) You are meant to make impact. When an arrow is shot by a mighty man, it pierces, it goes far.
This day, I lift up your life before the Lord and I say you will accomplish your purpose!
You will accomplish your goal, you will accomplish your vision, your life will count for something, your life will count for Glory, your life will count for power, your life will count for blessing!
Today, as an arrow shot forth, you will reach where your father never reached!
You will hit the target your father never hit!
You will become the weapon of accomplishment!
You will become the arrow of destiny!
You will become the arrow of victory!
You will be the arrow that came out of your natural father’s house and went in victory, in destiny, in accomplishments, in breakthrough and in testimonies like has never been seen!
Anyone putting limitations on you as an arrow of God shall be ashamed! From this day, you will be the arrow that struck the target and won! (2 Kings 13:15-17)
Every shame that has been brought against your father’s house, every embarrassment, everything that your family has known, now you are the arrow that the Lord has opened the windows to shoot for the hand of the prophet is upon you today, the Grace of the prophetic is upon you, today, the oil of the prophetic is upon you to go forth and hit the target!
You will hit local targets, you will hit international targets, you will hit global targets! you will reach where they did not know you were marked to reach in the name of Jesus!
The Grace that is on you will make you reach there!
I declare this morning it shall be a testimony!
You will strike totally and win completely!
It wasn’t just the hand of the king, this man (Elisha) who carried a strange oil, whom even when he was dead, his bones raised another dead man. His hand was on the hands of the King. ChurchGist. Today, I place a mighty hand on your hands and I say your hands that pulls the arrow will hit the target! Victory will follow you, you will become God’s flaming arrow, you will be God’s polished arrow for accomplishments!
Isaiah 49:2
Today, as a polished arrow, may you reach the target which God says He is taking you!
You will hit targets!
You will get to places no one will be able to stop you!
You will not miss your target!
You will not miss your season!
You will not miss your days!
You will not fall short before you reach your target!
You will not lose strength before you reach your target!
You will not lose velocity before you reach your target!
I declare to the sons and daughters of this platform, your sons and daughters shall rise!
Evil arrows that want to shoot your sons and daughters down will fail for their sake!
The wicked will always fire the arrow but it will return to them, the Lord defends the righteous from evil arrows and he will defend you!
God can shoot some arrows to defend us (Psalms 64:7-8)
God has an armory to destroy evil Arrows (Jeremiah 60:25)
God can scatter with his own arrows (2 Samuel 22:15)
Right now, l release the hand of God against every arrow that has been shot against you! (Psalm 71:4)
Arrows of repeated disappointment in your life are cancelled in the name of Jesus!
Anyone hearing voices from the spiritual, telling them what God has not said, today, I silence the voices!
Any demonic voice speaking in your mind, in your spirit, creating confusion I silence them!
Anyone at this altar who has had sudden depression upon their soul, I plead the blood of Jesus against any satanic arrow that has been shot against you! If they have manifested or have prevailed up till now, by reason of the covenant you have with God, the Blood prevails against them!
As I finished at KICC, Abuja, I met a young lady whom I had known from when she was like 4, now she is like 45. She said “please pray for me, I have suicidal thoughts”, the husband walked out of her and left her with three children and her life has been miserable since then. She thought she met a man of God whom she married. Everyone at this altar experiencing any form of depression, I nullify it by the blood of Jesus!
Everyone whom a paralysing wind has blown against, I command a turnaround in the name of Jesus!
Anyone in this place, in your dream you saw yourself knocked down by a strange vehicle; I cancel it in the name of Jesus!
Anyone at this altar who is usually sexually molested in their dream, by the Blood of the Lamb, I command your deliverance and freedom in the name of Jesus!
