Matthew 16:13-19:
13. When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his Disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of Nan am?
14. And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the Prophets.
15. He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16. And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God.
17. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in Heaven.
18. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this Rock I will build my Church; and the Gates of Hell shall not Prevail against it.
19. And I will give unto thee the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on Earth shall be bound in Heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on Earth shall be loosed in Heaven.
*When we are talking about “Destined For Greatness“; we are talking about something that the Almighty God had Settled concerning you.
*Whenever we talk about Destiny, we are talking about something that had happened even before you are born – Something that happened at your very, very origin.
And once in a while,, as you journey through Life; you begin to discover what your Destiny is likely to be.
Most of the time, you can only discover what this Destiny is all about through Divine Revelation – Only God can tell you what is His Purpose for your Life.
In the Story we read in the Bible Text; Jesus Christ was talking to the Disciples and He said that “Who do People say I am”.
And they all said this and this and this.
But He said finally, alright you are my own Disciples: “Who do you say I am ?”
And Peter spoke up and said: “You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God”.
And the Lord looked at him and said: “Okay Peter, since God had already revealed that to you; I may as well tell you the rest of the Story – “You are Destined to lead the Church”.
He said: Peter, you are going to get the Key to the Kingdom of Heaven – You are Destined to be Great Peter.
He said that Satan will try to get you but he will fail.
*Whenever you are “Destined for Greatness” and the fact becomes known; the Enemy will try his best to truncate that Destiny.
Because it is after the Lord Jesus Christ said to Peter that you will be leading the Church after I have gone that in Matthew 26: 69-75, where Peter denied three (3) times that he ever knew Jesus Christ.
The one who said that “You are the Christ and the Son of the Living God”; now found himself saying: “I never knew Him”.
Read;
*Three (3) Times, he did things that could put an end to that Destiny:
1. He denied that he knew Jesus Christ.
And Jesus Christ said that if you deny me before Men, I will deny you before my Father in Heaven (DMC NOTES: Matthew 10:33).
2. He Lied.
And the Word of God is very clear: Outside are Liars (NOTES: Revelation 22:15).
3. He even swore.
And the Bible made it clear that you are not to swear ( NOTES: Matthew 5: 34-37).
*He did three (3) Major things that could Permanently blocked his Entrance to Heaven.
*Three (3) Major things that could say: “Your Destiny is Truncated”.
But then, when Jesus Christ rose from the dead in Mark 16: 1-7; the Angel told the women: “Go and tell the Disciples of Jesus Christ and Peter also”.
Because you may think that Peter is no longer qualified to be called a Disciple of Jesus Christ.
*But there is something about the Destiny that can reverse the Irreversible.
… And we will hear a little more about that this Friday, 6th of June 2025 during The RCCG June 2025 Holy Ghost Service; by the Grace of God.
*But then, God had to do something: “To revive a Destiny that was already dead and restore a Destiny that has been Truncated”.
And that happened in John 21: 1-19.
The Lord Prepared a Meal and saw to it that the one who denied Him three (3) times had an opportunity to say: “Lord, I Love You” three (3) times.
*There might be one (1) or two (2) People here Tonight or reading now; who they themselves knew that if they had died by Yesterday, they are not likely to make it to Heaven either because they had never given their lives to Jesus Christ or they have Backsliden so badly that they themselves have come to the Conclusion that there is no Hope for them.
*I have Good News for you that:
☆ The Holy Communion is a Meal of Restoration.
☆ The Holy Communion is a Meal that brings a Truncated Destiny back on track.
*On Friday, 6th of June 2025 during The RCCG June 2025 Holy Ghost Service; we will learn: “The Power of Destiny”.
☆ That Destiny is more Powerful than Death.
☆ That Destiny can Reverse the Irreversible.
☆ That Destiny can bring a Destiny that has been Truncated right back to Restoration through God’s Divine Intervention.
☆ And that Intervention is involved even as you take the Bread.
Because that Bread that represents the Body of Jesus Christ that was broken; will bring Life back to your dead body.
And the Wine which represents the Blood of Jesus Christ; is also representing the Holy Spirit.
And it can bring about Deliverance, and with Healings.
*The one who thinks that there is no more Hope can begin to walk in a “Renewed Hope”.*
*There is Incredible Power in the Holy Communion:*
I. It is not an Ordinary Meal at all.
II. It is not a Meal that you eat casually.
III. It is a Meal with Power to restore not only your Body, not only your Soul but your Destiny.
*So as you come to the Table Tonight:
I. You must come to the Table Solemnly.
II. You must take this Meal Worthily.
III. You must come to this Table knowing fully well that if you eat this Meal Worthily and if you eat it Correctly, there can be a Restoration of your Destiny.
IV. But you must realised that you eat it unworthily, you create a Problem for yourself.
You know that in many of the Products that you buy from the Market; they will put on it what they called “The Expiring Date” – This food is good for you and this Medicine is good for you but it must be used before such and such a date.
If you consumed it after the Expiring Date, that which is supposed to do you good can become a Poison.
If you use a Medicine that is supposed to heal you but it Expired maybe a Month ago; instead of doing you good work, it can do evil work.
The same applies to the Holy Communion:
☆ You take it Worthily, it will bring you Tremendous Healings, Tremendous Deliverance and Restoration of Destiny.
☆ But you eat it Unworthily, it will Produce the Opposite Effect.
*So Please examine yourself – Don’t come to the Lord’s Table:
I. When you know that you are living in sin.
II. When you know that you have Backsliden.
III. When you know that you have not Forgiven those who offended you.
IV. When you know that you are not in Fellowship with God.
*Don’t let the Power to restore your Destiny be the Power that will Permanently bury your Destiny!
So Tonight or as you are reading now on the Label of DMC – You might be the only one:
☆ You know that you are not really Born Again.
☆ You know that you are not truly a Child of God.
☆ You know that you are Pretending.
☆ You know that you are showing to the People that you are a Child of God but you are still continuing as if you are still a Child of the Devil – Lying, Cheating, Drinking Alcohol, Defrauding, Fornicating and doing all those things that the Almighty God said should not even be mentioned among Children of God.
*Tonight or as you read now on the Label of DMC; it is either you come back to God and say:
☆ Alright Lord, I repent of my sin and I will no longer do such things again and I will follow you all the way.
☆ Or when they are bringing the Meal to you; you just ask them to Pass it on to the next Fellow.
*ALTAR CALL
So, the Choice is yours:
If you love to Surrender to Him so that He can save your Soul and wash you Clean with His Blood; then you can come to Him now.
If you have Backsliden but you have made up your Mind that you want to return to Him fully; then you can come to the Lord too.
I am going to count from one (1) to five (5) – Before I say five (5); make sure that you are Standing before the Altar.
Then I will Pray for your Salvation and for your Restoration.

Those of you who has come and those of you who are on the way; cry to the Lord Jesus Christ now:
Ask Him to have Mercy on you.
Tell Him that: I’m not joking anymore as I am serious – Forgive my sins, save my Soul and I Promise You that I will serve You for the rest of my Life.
And if you are a Backslider – Ask Him: Please, take me back Oh Lord. I Promise You that I won’t go back again and I will serve You for the rest of my Life.
And the rest of us, Please Stretch forth your Hands towards our New Brothers and Sisters and intercede for them:
Pray that the One who saved your own Soul will save their own Souls also and that He will give them Genuine Salvation so that they will become True Children of the Living God.

*ADMINISTRATION OF THE HOLY COMMUNION
Tonight, when you eat the Bread; you will cry to the Lord and say:
Please restore my Health – Physical Health, Mental Health, Emotional Health and Spiritual Health.
When it is time to drink the Wine, I will tell you how to Pray.
But as soon as I give the go ahead, you can go ahead to eat the Bread and really Pray that the Almighty God will restore your Health.
The Lord Jesus Christ; the very Night in which He was betrayed took the Bread and when He has given Thanks, He broke it saying: Take, Eat; this is my Body broken for you; do this in Remembrance of Me.
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit – Amen!
Go ahead and Pray as directed.
In Jesus Mighty Name we have Prayed – Amen!
When you drink the Wine Tonight, you will cry to the Almighty and say:
Father, Please revive my Destiny!
