You are chosen, (1st Peter Chapter 2 verses 9 to 11); a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special person to proclaim the praises of God. Beloved, God’s hand is over your life. God is your refuge and fortress, your strength, your strong tower, your hiding place and sanctuary, your safe place and the only solid rock to stand on.
You are valuable, capable, strong and beautiful, designed to succeed. You will walk and live in divine purpose. You will fulfill divine purpose. You will always operate under God’s faithful covering, divine protection, divine direction, divine provision, divine linking up and divine security.
You will always prosper. The earth ceased to yield its strength to Cain because he spilled his brother’s blood on the earth. That was the reason for Cain’s unfruitful labor and lack of prosperity – bloodshed and murder. The earth had received Abel’s blood and the blood was crying from the earth for justice for Abel against Cain, the murderer. But you will be enriched because you are chosen and washed clean and justified by the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Each time God calls a person or family, it is for the purpose of lifting the family out of poverty into wealth, out of obscurity and insignificance into significance and limelight, and from mediocrity into excellence. And even when a family is already rich, it is to catapult them into great wealth and generational abundance. Examples include Abraham and his descendants particularly King Solomon, the richest and wisest king who ever walked the face of the earth.
Therefore, stop bothering about anyone trying to take over
anything that belongs to you. No devil in hell can take what God has for you.
God will satisfy
you with longevity which He promises in His word (with long life I will satisfy
him and show him my salvation. No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague
come near your dwelling; (Isaiah Chapter 54 verse 17, Psalm 91 verses 9 to 16).
Therefore, use your time for His highest and best use. The prophetess Anna
served God faithfully as an intercessor from her youth even to when she was old
so that even in her eighties, she was at the temple on duty for the Lord. She
was blessed with the rare privilege of recognizing the Lord Jesus Christ though
he was an infant brought for dedication at the temple. Please read Luke Chapter
2 verses 36 to 38. The just and devout Simeon who also saw and recognized the
Lord Jesus as an infant was also busy in the service of the Lord even though he
was an old man. Please read Luke Chapter 2 verses 25 to 35.
The major purpose for longevity is to declare the work of the Lord. Please read Psalms 118 verse 17; 92 verse 15. It is also to declare that the Lord is upright, He is your rock and there is no unrighteousness in Him (Psalm 92 verse 15).
Yet another
purpose for longevity is to serve God. Luke Chapter 1 talks about Zechariah,
the father of John the Baptist who despite being old was faithfully serving God
as Priest. His life of service to God at that age simply buttresses the fact
that the righteous will still bear fruit even in old age according to
Scriptures in Psalm 92 verses 12 to 15.
May God in His
infinity mercy grant you longevity to serve Him in righteousness and holiness
all the days of your long life in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Shalom.
