There are many scriptures in the Bible that applies to every facet of our lives. A lot of scriptures people hear are so deep, many times we do not see the relevance to our situations.
Think about the story of Moses how he hit a rock and water came from it, this can apply to the hard, dry, stony and impossible areas of each and everyone of our lives.
Now think about a Woman that was the age of 90, but had the youthful and peak of a teenage girl. Think about what Abraham did walking those deserts at the age of 100 and made a baby, his 2nd one far past the age of what many consider present day senior citizens.
Lets go deeper. Lets see your own brilliance, intellectualism, the faith in your dreams/goals which many realize are your own
Destiny/Greatness, born in YOU to do before the world was ever created. Destined for YOU that no one else could ever do, past, present or future. Everything about YOU is perfect, even the very hairs on your body are numbered, think not that this does not apply to YOUR destiny.
Only negative attitudes, choices and agnosticism block. A lot of people that say they believe and God Bless are actually agnostic, even I dare say atheist.
Anything that YOU put 1st in front of God, is idolatry. Believe me not? Keep living.
This is for anyone that the shoe fits, we all know deep down whether we believe or not. Whats the 1st thing You run to when having a problem? Coffee, alcohol, s*x, people, t.v., music, husband, wife, significant other, computer screen, a Bible with no application(Collecting dust like crosses can be made into a form of Idolatry thus not belief)? We won't even get into the treating of other people, kindness, saying thank you, kindness to strangers, envy, jealousy, self immaturity, stuck on self etc. I won't even get into not being able to speak to people which is a Blessing. If a person is so full of the devil that they can not speak to you, that is God Almighty actually keeping that most evil of persons away from you. That is also the devil and the person/persons via choice blocking themselves. Many times, people like this will want to show up, when you really have it going on. I say fake stay fake than you are being you.
This is advice to people that deal with things such as that. Hope you get it for all who I am posting this for that are positive people.
We can not discern all most negative folk from not knowing them, but God can at the expense of the devil being blocked and ticked off. Thank you God :-)
By the way, God says negative people, know that they are negative by the Holy Spirit that is in them. Those are most miserable people.
In counseling I have dealt with that type often. 99.9% of them have health issues to that progress with age. Usually people like that can track poor health and issues since very early ages, I mean health issues that are common in older people. I have dealt with so many youth in their teens and early 20's that have the health and take senior citizen medications.
I have seen many older people that will out walk and out run many much younger over long distances. A negative attitude travels much further than many realize. One does not have to be in close proximity to know it.
Attitude goes a long way in everything one aspires to do. I make it a point, not to even ask negative folk to pray for me. There is a major reason the Bible mentions about being evenly yoked. Negative people via choice, poison other people lives. What do you think it means about the popular, "Crabs in the bucket" saying? How about "Playa hata"? Envy, jealousy etc. People so negative as not to see that they have it all as anyone else, that they can't stand most other people. We all know people like this, just think about their lifestyles, choices, the things they do to themselves and blame everyone else.
There are people I have counseled that will list all these needs, they get them covered and then fuss about getting too much attention, services etc.
It is like those that we have sen at Church that list ost desperate of situations. You feel for them, the Church helps and then they gossip and fuss that too many people are calling them or checking up on them, but they asked to be checked up on, or stated they were so sick, please come see me etc. Anyone knows people like this? No matter what people do for them, they are not satisfied, why? Think about it.
Attention seeking and enabling can be positive or negative based. Even God mentions people are human and get tired after while and run from you. Then those negative people fuss about being alone to someone that does not know them, which is actually deceit and not being truthful. Anyway, that can be another topic that someone else can expound on.
Peep this and feel free to let me know what you think.
Lets look at the story of Abraham and Sarah and see what YOU can peep from them.
*By the way, this was posted a while back at another website and I felt could be relevant here*
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy YOUTH is renewed like the Eagles. Psalm 103:5.
A part of "God's" Blessings is the renewal of youth. The Bible states in Psalms 110:3 about the dew of thy youth. We all have that inner child within us to enjoy life, live, dream, to just go for it.
To soar as high as Eagles(Accomplishments for your peace, prosperity, Blessings, security and happiness).
I was talking with a friend last night and major revelations hit me.
Look at the very important story of Abraham and Sarah. Sarah was about 90 yrs old and Abraham about 100, when they were told that a son would be born unto them(The Blessing, seed, idea, dream, vision, goal, desire, etc.).
A 90 yr old women can not technically have a baby. Even Sarah said she was past the age to give birth to a child. Sarah had given up hope on a dream and a goal.
During those times young maidens(Teenage girls) were taken by the King to be a wife unto him. Not condoning, but teenage girls are at the peek of the child birth process biologically. Remember Sarah was kidnapped twice by Kings(Read Genesis 20:2. Sarah was 90 yrs old and mistaken as a young maiden). They did not know her age. Sarah must have had the youthful appearance of a teenager at the age past that of many grandmothers.
At the age of about 90, Sarah's body had to be renewed biologically to that of a young maiden in order to bear a child. Biological processes had long been stopped within her. For Sarah to get pregnant her body had to be rejuvenated. Sarah in Gen 21:7 breast fed her child. Sarah was 90 yrs old at this time. This can be applied to what you desire in your lives. That voice that is telling you to soar. That is Spirit. A calling is a calling because you don't know what to do. You find out why you did what you did afterwards.
Now think about Abraham. Abraham's youth had to be renewed also. Can you young women imagine making love to a man of about 90 yrs of age in order to have a baby because an Angel told you that you would? You would have laughed as Sarah did. Sarah once told that she would bear a child, immediately had s*xual relations with Abraham.
Think about it, how many older women of 90+ yrs of age desire their husbands physically as they did in their peak days of their s*xuality? Abraham also had to be reduced in age appearance and given his vigor, good looks and vitality for Sarah to, with no objection immediately grab Him for s*xual relations. Sarah in her age before rejuvenation, lost desire for s*x with Abraham. In Gen 18:12, Sarah's passion and youth were returned unto her. Sarah states, "After I have grown old shall I have pleasure my Lord("Preincarnate "Jesus") being OLD? Sarah's youth and passion for a goal was given back to her inorder to achieve it.
The Bible says in Genesis 18:14 "Is Any Thing Too Hard For The "LORD"?
"God" Blessed even though there was much doubt, as many of us have today.
Sarah was Blessed because of the faith of Abraham and Abraham was Blessed through Sarah. Now place the closest people to you that are positive for you in these categories. "God" will send all the rest back to the devil where they came from. Think about those who are not in your lives anymore(very painful at the time they left). Think about why you are doing so much better and a weight has been removed from off you. It was all "God".
"God" also removes obstacles out of your way in order for you to accomplish your dreams and goals. In Gen 20:18, the Lord had fast closed up any hindrance for Sarah and Abraham. In Gen 20:3, the most powerful man(Call it your biggest obstacle against) in the land King Abimelech, was stopped cold for the Blessing of Abraham and Sarah(Put YOUR NAME in the appropriate spots).
Look at how many ppl. here look far younger than your years? It is not like all of you took such great care of your bodies. Many of you have done all the things that would/has aged other ppl. Look at your friends and the ages that they look. I have ppl. that I grew up with that appear in their 40's and 50's. We have hung out together and ppl. have asked, "is that your father or mother"? I know that many of you can claim the same. My Aunt has students she taught in highschool that appear in their 80's. My Aunt will ask me how old does that person appear. I will think yrs older than my Aunt. My Aunt will reply that was one of my students.
"God" has Blessed many Women and Men here that appear equally of many that are in their 20's and 30's(No pun intended for those who are in their 20's and 30's). I see many women Profiles here and will exclaim, "She Is What Age???".
The gist of all this is to never lose your youth and be miserable. Many ppl. are.
Also remember that if you keep living, you age everyday unless..........
There are those here who are grouchy and doubtful of anything/everything most of what ppl. say and do on here. They share no joy for they are lonely and miserable(their own faults) and try to block inherently other ppl.'s JOY. Narrow minded ppl. are against you because you are doing what they have not done for themselves. You are a threat to them. They measure you by the limit of their own minds. They want to feel good about themselves and try to give to you what they are not. I mean that for those who are negative. We all have Blessings, talent, gifts in which we are given. Remember many are called, but few are chosen. The chosen are the ones who choose. This is stated in Matt 22:14. "God" also choose the greatest from those who appear to have the least (1Cor 1:27). No matter where you are at, YOU can do if YOU choose for "We all can do "Phillipians 4:13
"God" can/will renew if YOU have the faith of a mustard seed and will remove mountains out of your way, i.e. ppl., trials, tribulations, bad health, money problems, lack of opportunities, barriers to education, negative environments, enemies, etc.etc.etc.
I can write much more but I end here.
Have a most Blessed day/night/morning and "God" Bless to all.
Just adding in my 2cents worth of thoughts.
