Following God who knows everything about the future is what guarantees arrival at one’s promised land Isa. 46:9-10. Therefore, there are no sealing on the believer’s destiny, every believer has the opportunity of rising to the topmost top he can imagine. But only the believer who will be committed to following divine direction will arrive there Exo. 23:20.

When a believer misses his step out of divine path, he becomes subject to the forces of death Pro. 14:12; 16:25. Also, he becomes vulnerable to the operation of the thief, who robs him of all that God has for his life and destiny Isa. 42:22-24.

When one walks in divine path, God’s presence goes with that believer, this makes him to be free from all fear and intimidation Psa. 23:1,4; Exo. 3:7-10; 4:22-23. When one is plagued with fear, check to be sure one has not missed his step out of God’s path for one’s life.

2. It secures supernatural victory.
