(We Grow But We Don’t Age)
TO THE BIBLE: Deuteronomy 34:7
“Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eyes were not dim nor his natural vigor diminished.”
LET’S TALK
“Wow, Lilian, I didn’t know you had another sister,” commented Phoebe, looking at one of Lilian’s pictures on her phone.
“That’s not my sister, Phoebe. That’s my mom!” Lilian replied.
“Oh wow! She looks so young; what’s her secret? You’ve got to tell me!”
“If you ask her, she would say, “Eternal life is at work in me; I don’t age!”
Have you ever heard the word “agelessness”? It’s part of your heritage in Christ. We grow, but we don’t age! Hallelujah! So never say, “You know, I’m getting older with each birthday.”
As a Christian, you shouldn’t talk like that because, when you were born again, eternal life was imparted to your spirit. Eternal life is life with agelessness.
In Christ, you’ve been brought into His glory and the glorified life. So, every so often, declare to yourself, “I only get stronger and younger! I live in the realm of agelessness because, as Jesus is, so am I!”
Consider Moses: at one hundred and twenty years of age, his physical stature hadn’t abated, and his eyes weren’t dim. Yet the Bible says the glory that Moses had isn’t anything compared to what we have today in Christ Jesus (2 Corinthians 3:7-11).
It was the same with Caleb: At eighty-five, Caleb said, “I’m as strong today as I was when I was forty; therefore, give me this mountain” (Read Joshua 14:7-12). That’s our story! Our youth is renewed like the eagle’s (Psalm 103:5).
For us, there’s only one way: We get stronger and stronger, greater and greater, and we move upward and forward. Hallelujah! Never see yourself as weak.
You’re continually invigorated from within by the Holy Ghost. Meditate on these truths, declare them constantly, and live the supernatural life in Christ. Praise God!

Speak:
The Lord is the strength of my life, and He constantly renews, refreshes, and rejuvenates me through the Word and the power of the Holy Spirit! I’m stronger by the day, stronger today than ever, because my inward man is renewed day by day; I live in the ageless zone. Glory to God!
