“With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.”
Today's reading — Ephesians 6:1-4▾
The silver-haired head is a crown of glory, If it is found in the way of righteousness. Proverbs 16:31 (NKJV) One of the blessings that God has bestowed on His children is long life. This is evident in our memory verse for today. The Bible says that you will be satisfied with long life; therefore, no matter what happens in the world, you cannot die young. No matter the number of diseases and infections in the world, you will not die young. You will live old and wax strong in the Lord. Again, the memory verse shows that the Lord promised long life to those who have been saved. In other words, He wishes those who are His children long life. I prophesy to you, you will live long, in Jesus’ name. Also, today’s Bible reading says that for you to live long, you must honor your parents and elders. Honoring your parents is the only commandment that comes with a promise. If you do not respect your elders, you will not become an elder. Therefore, it is not debatable. You must obey your parents if you want to live long. Never insult, disrespect, or provoke them to anger. They are your gods on earth, and just as you would not provoke God, you must not provoke them. If you do so and they curse you out of anger, it will surely come to pass, except God shows you mercy. The ball is in your court, and I believe you will do the right thing.
