“I deeply believe in God, even though I have never seen Him. I believe in the law of existence and in His grace and favour upon my life. However, there is something remarkable I have noticed about destiny helpers; they are like God in human form.
“Imagine someone working tirelessly day and night, only to take the fruits of their hard labour and transfer them to my account—just like that! Think about the risks some people endure to ensure others live a better life.
“Let’s pause for a moment and reflect. A person wakes up in the middle of the night, strategising on how to connect the dots, taking both calculated and uncalculated risks to make money. Then, without any obligation, they simply transfer that hard-earned money to someone who had no part in their struggles. Isn’t that extraordinary?
“Let’s consider the lives of some generous individuals. I firmly believe that there is no easy way to make money. The road to success is not just rough but incredibly challenging. I have great respect for money because earning it requires extraordinary intelligence and effort. Therefore, whenever people generously give me their hard-earned money, I don’t take it for granted. I see my destiny helpers as God in human form.”
Mogaji Wole Arisekola, a renowned media entrepreneur and successful businessman, by all standards, made the above submission on God and destiny helpers on his Facebook page, recently.
He did not stop at that; he went on to thank all those who contributed in one way or the other to the success of the high-profiled wedding of his daughter, held in Lagos last December.
“Many people have contributed their hard-earned money, ranging from thousands of U.S. dollars to millions of Naira towards my daughter’s wedding. I am at a loss for words to express my gratitude for your generosity. Deep in my heart, you are not just benefactors but amazing angels—my destiny helpers, my God in human form.
“I do not take your support—both moral and financial—for granted. Your contributions have transformed my life for the better and have elevated me to a new level of financial stability. I am profoundly indebted to all of you.
“My prayer is that you will continue to receive blessings throughout your lives. I appreciate you all, and may God always bless and guide you. Thank you very much,” Mogaji Arisekola wrote on his Facebook page on Saturday, 18 January, 2025.
The humble submission from such a highly-placed individual who is also a well-known philanthropist was the needed impetuous to further enrich my knowledge about destiny helpers: who are they? What are their assigned roles in the life of lesser individuals? What can one do to meet his/her destiny helpers? What could hinder the destiny helpers from reaching out to fulfill their roles in the lives of their assigned beneficiaries?
A destiny-helper is someone who plays a significant role in helping you achieve your goals, fulfill your potential, or realise your purpose in life. They are individuals who, knowingly or unknowingly, provide guidance, support, opportunities, or resources that propel you forward on your journey.
