Callin' all Old People, God ain't done w/ You

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

– Isaiah 40:31

Here's a little known fact... (you like factoids?) faith has the power to rejuvenate your physical body? (C'mon everybody say it," WHATCHU TALKIN" BURK?)  I'm serious, It's true. You can see this in the life of Sarah. 

Most people don't understand the full extent of what God did for her and in her. All they know is... (Bible time everyone)  He enabled her to have a child when she was OLD.

But if you take a second and look a little closer, you'll see that there was more to it than just having a baby and being old!! When Sarah grabbed ahold of the promise of God through faith, it began to restore her physically.... in such a crazy way, that when King Abimelech saw her, he wanted her for his wife. HA HA!!!

Think about that!! At 90 years old, (9-0)  she was such a Hotty that a king wanted her in his harem. (That's like my Grandma Monners (91) gettin' asked out by a Younger dude!!!) HA HA!!

What's more, after she gave birth to Isaac, the Bible says, she nursed him till he was weaned. (That's just nasty!!)

Then she kept right on living until that boy was raised!!!

Now, I'm not telling you... you can have a baby at 90 like Sarah did. So, please hear me out!!! She had a specific promise, a word from God about that. 

I'm telling you... that if you'll believe God for renewed strength and health in your old age... He'll provide it for you. God's not finished with the seasoned generation!!! In fact, we need you now more than ever!!! This generation needs Spiritual Moms & Dads (Grandma's & Grandads)

Don't sit down!! We NEED YOU!!!

Psalm 103 says that's one of God's benefits. It says God will fill your mouth with good things so your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

God's desire for you in your old age is that you are a powerful, experienced champion of the Word with your strength renewed by faith. 

Start confessing that today. Fill your mouth with the promises of God. Say, "Praise God, my youth is renewed like the eagle's." Hahaha

You'll still go to heaven when your work on earth is through--but you won't just fade away. You'll fly out of here in a blaze of glory like the conqueror God created you to be.

Have a wonderful week. Chew on this Soul Food.... (and if you are over the age of 60, this is a mandatory movie..... Disney's "Up")

Blessings,
