Anybody Want to Live a Long Life? It’s Possible

It’s a terrible thing to have your destiny aborted here on earth. Goals, dreams and potential many times cut-off at 17, 24, and 30 years old. A king named David cautioned his son, Solomon, to “hear and receive instruction and to allow his heart to retain his words.” His son was further urged to “avoid the way of evil men, to turn from it.”

The scripture book Proverbs quotes that a “long and satisfying life” is indeed possible upon condition that in this case, “the son does not deviate from his father’s teaching.” The same principle holds true for us, as we choose not deviate from our heavenly father’s teachings.

Ever wonder how the people of God lived so long in times of old? Well, fact is his commandments was good, his laws right, as he taught them keys through his own word on “how to live” long, vital and healthy lives. Beloved, nothing on the market today can come close, remedy wise, to replacing these Godly commandments and principles. The fact is, the word of the Lord never gets old or stale. It’s always fresh, even though time, as we know it, moves on. In other words, what God said was good for his people yesterday, is still good for us today!

Proverbs offers us instruction on many matters including discipline, good understanding, wisdom, trust in the Lord, sound judgement, and much more. The writers spell out what to do, what not to do, how to do, and what pitfalls to avoid. Many times lives are unfortunately aborted much too early, potential wasted, mind’s twisted, and we go on self led paths. Why? Simply put, we’ve deviated from the instructions of our heavenly father.

Anybody want to live a long life? It’s possible! Though conditional, it is possible. It’s never to late to start. How about today? By following the principles of the written word. I encourage you to merely crack open the book and give his principles a try. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
