It encompasses themes of predestination, divine calling, and the fulfillment of God's plans. The term is closely associated with God's foreknowledge and the unfolding of His divine purposes throughout history.<br><br><b>Predestination and Divine Sovereignty</b><br><br>The doctrine of predestination is a key aspect of the biblical understanding of destiny. It refers to God's eternal decree by which He has determined the fate of individuals and events according to His will. <a href="/ephesians/1-4.htm">Ephesians 1:4-5</a> states, "For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence. In love He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will." This passage highlights the belief that God has a predetermined plan for His people, rooted in His love and sovereign choice.<br><br><a href="/romans/8-29.htm">Romans 8:29-30</a> further elaborates on this concept: "For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers. And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified." Here, the apostle Paul outlines a sequence of divine actions that underscore God's sovereign role in the salvation and ultimate glorification of believers.<br><br><b>Divine Calling and Purpose</b><br><br>The Bible also speaks of individuals being destined for specific roles or missions as part of God's overarching plan. <a href="/jeremiah/1-5.htm">Jeremiah 1:5</a> records God's words to the prophet Jeremiah: "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as a prophet to the nations." This verse illustrates the idea that God has a specific purpose for each person, known and ordained even before birth.<br><br>Similarly, the apostle Paul acknowledges his own divine calling in <a href="/galatians/1-15.htm">Galatians 1:15-16</a> : "But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by His grace, was pleased to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not rush to consult with flesh and blood." Paul's recognition of his destiny to preach the Gospel to the Gentiles underscores the belief that God orchestrates individual lives for His purposes.<br><br><b>Nations and Historical Events</b><br><br>The Bible also addresses the destiny of nations and historical events as part of God's sovereign plan. <a href="/acts/17-26.htm">Acts 17:26</a> declares, "From one man He made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their lands." This passage suggests that God has predetermined the rise and fall of nations, as well as their geographical and temporal boundaries.<br><br>In the Old Testament, the destiny of Israel as God's chosen people is a recurring theme. <a href="/deuteronomy/7-6.htm">Deuteronomy 7:6</a> states, "For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for His prized possession, above all the peoples on the face of the earth." Israel's destiny as a nation set apart for God's purposes is central to the biblical narrative.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>The concept of being destined in the Bible is deeply intertwined with God's sovereignty, His foreknowledge, and His divine purposes for individuals and nations. It encompasses the themes of predestination, divine calling, and the fulfillment of God's plans, reflecting the belief that all things ultimately work according to His will.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(<I>imp. & p. p.</I>) of Destine.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/2749.htm"><span class="l">2749. keimai -- to be laid, lie</span></a> <br><b>...</b> Phonetic Spelling: (ki'-mahee) Short Definition: I lie, recline, am laid Definition:<br> I lie, recline, am placed, am laid, set, specially appointed, <b>destined</b>. <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">//strongsnumbers.com/greek2/2749.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 7k</font><p><a href="/greek/3805.htm"><span class="l">3805. pathetos -- one who has suffered or is subject to suffering</span></a> <br><b>...</b> suffered or is subject to suffering.
