Focus: The Perils of Old age

WORD FOR TODAY
The beauty and flaws in the life of an old man depend on the people around him. The old age of a man will be good and his end glorious if he is surrounded by good and righteous men!!!
************************************
Scriptural Reference
"Jesus said, "Feed my sheep. I tell you the truth, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go." (John 21:18 NIV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The intellect of a man from infant to old again is parabolic in nature. All men will return to child-like behaviour as they progress into old age and be at the mercy of those around them. You will go where your children and people around you want to go in the future and their thoughts, evil desire, mistakes, faith and righteousness will become yours.

We cannot congratulate a man yet, as far as fulfilment is concerned, until he is surrounded by men and children who have a purpose of heart to serve God and have gained the heart of wisdom. Train up your child, disciples, and people around you the way they should go because their destination is a factor that determines your end.

King David ended gloriously because he was surrounded by good people who counselled him correctly. They advised him to retire from going to war and he yielded. Do not relent until you ensure that your children and those around you are taught of the Lord and love Him in righteousness. Your faith, labour of love, consecration and walk with God will be a waste if those who will hold your hand at old age have not seen God in righteousness nor walk with Him.

+ What are your investments over those that will hold your hand at old age?

Lord! When I am old and grey, do not forsake me, O God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your might to all who are to come in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Emphasis:
You will walk with God to the end if and only if those who will hold your hand at old age will also be walking with God!!!

Have a Cheerful Week Ahead!!!
