The world itself though seems to be physical, is controlled by the spiritual. Destiny and Karma are both applicable to every human. First before i proceed I'll like to define what destiny and karma is according to oxford dictionary.

Destiny is said to be "an event that will necessarily happen to a particular person or thing in the future" or it is said to be "the hidden power believed to control future events; fate." while on the other hand, Karma is said to be the result of one's action either bad or good.

Every man born of a woman have a destiny, by default we're all destined to acheive an height of stature in life which will definitely be beneficial to many people far and around us. One way or the other the human is created to be dependent on the other either directly or indirectly. From birth to death we need someone to take us from the position we are to where our destiny has placed us to be. Destiny is always bound to happen but can be changed through supernatural intervention of God.

Many people's destiny at times is not the product of what God wants them to be. They rewrote the book of their life and work out of the divine plans and purpose of God for their life, in this situation they ended up not fulfilling the purpose why they were being creaated to acheive on earth. In this situation they lead their own way to their Karma. Karma is the result of one's destiny which can be either good or bad. Destiny can be delayed but can never be denied but can be altered through the supernature intervention of God who rewrites the history of men.

Taking the first Man and Woman on earth as an analogy. God never created man to fall into sin someday. Probably if God had known that the man He has created would eat the forbidden fruit and get to be caused, He shouldn't have made man. God sees the end right from the beginning of life but one thing He believes is that, even if man falls there will be a way they can be redeemed from their sins provided they asked for forgiveness. Merely asking for forgiveness would have turned around or restructure the course of the destiny of Adam and Eve. What made it worse was when Adam was asked about "who ate the forbidden fruit?" Rather than Him Apologising for his wrong doing, He said "the woman you have given me gave me the forbidden fruit and i did eat." There is a possibility if Adam had accepted the blame and pleaded for mercy instantly, God should have showed him and his wife (Eve) mercy and allowed them to keep living in the garden of Eden. This should have been their new destiny.

Karma is based on the outcome or products of what we do during the course of attaining our destiny in life. Many individuals are not working in proportion to the destiny given to them from God by default. They rather choose their on way and work out of the plan and purpose of God for their lives. In such situation, Karma becomes the order of their day because whatever they sow they will surely reap. So Karma and destiny are both real and true and they work hand in hand together. A good destiny is as a result of taking the rightful decisions in life that led to that. So Karma is simply the "Result" or "Reward" of our activities on earth either good or bad. So, Destiny is more like a Vision but Karma is the result of actions taking along your mission to fulfil your vision in life. When a wrong action is taken you might not fulfil that vision but rather alter the vision blueprint so, your vision seems delayed or you recreate a counterfeited vision for yourself which is not the fault of nature but you. In this situation, Karma takes it's course.

Most at times we do some certain things or leave certain situations the way they are and accruing such to destiny (which is not right). When someone is diagnosed with liver cancer and not given the rightful treatment as due, when such a Life dies we attribute it to fate or destiny. What if the specific treatment for the ailment was available and the patient was treated well and was able to live, we still atteibute that to destiny. One fact is that Life itself is a mystery and we do not know our destiny or what tomorrow holds for us. One thing is sure, which is the result of whatever we do in Life; Karma can never change its name because it'll definitely reward both the good and bad deads of every individuals on earth.

So in conclusion, Destiny and Karma works hand in hand. I believe in both and they are said to be true and bound to happen but can be altered by the intervention of the supernatural being in response to the kind of action taken by you.

Everything we get is what we do bro, I believe in your opinion, our actions speak more louder than words

Thank you bro. Facts be told.

For me, both destiny and karma exists. But karma is the reward of what you have done or your deeds.. Destiny is like your life's divine arrangement but which you can change if there's is an element of dark there...of course through prayers..!

Well we both know that our God is all knowing, I believe that it is not that God didn't know this was going to happen, just that he didn't want to force a destiny on Adam and eve, instead he gave them a choice to either eat or not with consequences but they rather chose the bad consequences. Not God's fault...

Also about this 👇

There is a possibility if Adam had accepted the blame and pleaded for mercy instantly, God should have showed him and his wife (Eve) mercy and allowed them to keep living in the garden of Eden.

Our God is a God of his word, he can't change because of a man. He has said it that if they ate that fruit, they'll die, and even if Adam had accepted his fall and pleaded for mercy, God would have shown him Mercy by not stressing himself before he eat but yet, death will still before human....

Nice post boss @daniky ...

God exalts his word more than Himself. You made a very good point bro 🤔

Thank you very much sir..
