SECRETS OF LONGEVITY
THE SEED
“You shall therefore keep His statutes and His commandments which I command you today, that it may go well with you and with your children after you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for all time.” Deuteronomy 4:40 NKJV
As science is attempting to unravel the secret of Longevity, the Word of God has already unraveled this to His children long ago to give us the recipes for it. For example, Ephesians 6:2-3 urges us to honour our parents so that our days may be long upon the earth. Other bible passages that give us secrets to Longevity include Deuteronomy 6:2 ( the fear of God); Proverbs 3:2 (keeping to His Word), Psalms 91:15-16 (calling upon the name of the Lord), 1 Peter 3: 10-11 (refraining your tongue from evil, avoiding lies, hating evil, doing good and making peace). There is no gainsaying that eating a good and balanced diet, having a good night’s rest, regular Exercise, drinking between 6-8 glasses of water a day, eating less fat, sugar, and salt and taking time to relax will surely add to life, all of these are as important as the word of God. The place of God’s word is very important and cannot be taken for granted. As we eat to keep healthy, let’s also stick to His word. This will lengthen our days and prolong our stay on planet earth. Your lengthy days will be useful to fulfill God’s purpose on earth.
BIBLE READING: Deuteronomy 4: 39-49
PRAYER: Father, grant me the grace to live long to proclaim the name of the Lord in the Land of the living. Let not Satan use food to destroy my destiny, let me not die before my time or serve you in vain in Jesus name, Amen.
