LONG LIFE WITH GOOD HEALTH

Post date: Oct 4, 2012 6:12:03 AM

Life is one of the very best free gifts from God and what you do with this very precious free but expensive gift is completely up to you to imagine. Whatever desires you have in living this life successfully, must be completely matched with an equal and appropriate practical action. The times of living a loosed lifestyle or not taking proactive actions concerning your life and health and its aftermath are over. We are living in a time we have to give some very serious thoughts (not worries) concerning everything about ourselves, our salvation, our heath, our wealth and our relationships with God and with others. God had given us guide lines on how to do that. 

Long life, good health and healthy living are three inseparable companions. When you desire long life, you must pay action attention to your health and continuously practice healthy living. God had given us this life to live with joy and to increase in age, in wealth and in health. There is nothing as painful in life as aging with pains and with increase sorrows. God’s intent for living was for men to live this life with joy and satisfaction not with any form of regrets, sorrows and sickness, but unfortunately God’s intent is becoming an illusion these days and the undesirables are on the increase in the lives of many people today.     

There is many more promotion of products related with healthy living and long life today than it had ever been since creation. More money is being spent on products and lifestyle that promises but does not guarantee long life and good health than it is being spent on healthy food, healthy eating habit, spiritual, physical and mental health    

This is the spiritual biblical receipt for long life: “What man is he who desires life and longs for many days, that he may see good? Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil and do good; seek, inquire for, and crave peace and pursue (go after) it.” Psalms 34:12-14.

Coupled with healthy lifestyle, long life and good days can be attained when we practice and perfect the act of keeping our tongues from speaking evil against ourselves despite any situation we are in, and speaking evil against others even in times of severe and aggressive provocation. The words we speak with joy or in anger are powerful and they recreate such scenes in our lives in the future. The devil uses every word you speak to plot evil against you.

The second is to guard our lips and to restrain it from every form of deceit. The lip wants to move, the mouth wants to speak, but if we will deliberately desires and endeavor to refrain from deceits, it will help our health and guarantees long and good life. When you guard and keep your lips and tongue despite the provocation and speak only good, you will succeed in delivering yourself from many forms of satanic evils from all angles. 

The third is to endeavor to do good to everyone at all times without entertaining any form of fear. Fear is a rubbery to good deeds, sound minds, to our peace and blessing. It opens the door for satanic affliction and restrains our spiritual, physical and material growth. “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 1Timothy 1:7

The forth is to diligently seek, crave for and pursue peace at all times. Not retaliating evil for evil but always going after that which will ensure peace and harmony even when others refuse your offer or say you are foolish for doing that.     

When you do these four things couples with practicing healthy living, then the eyes of the Lord will be with you, His ears will open unto your prayers, He will deliver you from all forms of distresses, sicknesses and troubles and will give you long life with good days. “Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.” Psalms 34:19-20. For prayers and encouragement, someone is here to pray with you. Click here
