God Satisfies My Mouth With Good Things!

Psalm 103:5,  "Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's."

Have you observed the life of an eagle? An eagle bird can live up to 70 years. That's a longevity even for a bird.  Well, it is also a fact that when an eagle gets to about 30years the physical condition deteriorates, it becomes difficult for it to eat, fly, survive.  What happens is that the bird retires to the mountain top and starts knocking off its beak by banging it against a rock, it will pluck out its talons, pluck out its feathers. The eagle experiences a regrowth of each body part that was removed and within the period of five months, the eagle is as good as knew and can live for another 30-40 years. 

In view of what we now know about the eagle bird, look at the theme verse again, pay attention to the tenses used in the verse. It is something that's happening right now, God satisfies my mouth with good things and my youth is renewed like the eagles. It is possible for us to live a life where we are constantly regenerated like the eagle. God told us how; the power is in our mouths and we gotta use that power!  We have to say the Word, we need to put the word in our mouth, say what God said about us continually, why? So our youth can be renewed. What do I mean by our youth renewed? Well, remember all that you used to do when you were younger? Yeah, you had strength, vigor, gusto, ability, power, strength, health, even joy and all that. You know what I'm talking about, God does not want us to loose that fire just because our years are increasing.

For instance, you can always say, "I have the mind of Christ."  I Corinthians 2:16.  That means you have a sharp mind, a sound mind. Your being conscious of this, saying it often keeps your mind active even when you get older. 2 Peter 1:4 says that we are partakers of divine nature.  Since God does not get sick, sad, weak, poor..that's the way we are too because "as He(Jesus) is, so are we in this world. 1 John 4:17."  There are so many verses in the Bible God has given to us. When we put God's Word in our mouth, we are saying the same thing God has said about us. As you continue to say it, you are renewing your youth like that of the eagles. Remember Romans 10 : 8, 'But what does it say? "The Word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith we preach)'  We really do not have any excuse and don't let unbelief take you away from your blessing and your right.

About Christmas!

Google image.
I love Christmas! I think almost everybody loves Christmas too. With all the heavy preparations, the music, the decorations, gifts, parties, home-coming, family gathering, even the cold weather, white snow blanketing the landscape etc. The euphoria is enough to keep people away from the real reason of Christmas.  However, there is more to all these in Christmas.  We should learn to appreciate the real reason for Christmas.  No, I'm not trying to be a wet blanket, I love Christmas too, I love all the hooplah of the season. I'm gonna put up a decoration too..I hope to attend some parties as well :)

You see, I was at the nail shop and this Vietnamese guy who is obviously not a Christian responded that he was getting ready to do some Christmas decorations but he doesn't believe in Jesus and I regret that he didn't let me talk to him about Jesus  Jesus is no longer the baby in a manger! He grew up!  There was a reason for His coming into this world, not just for us to have some nice Christmas period and it ends there.  People are dying and going to hell because either nobody told them about Jesus or they didn't believe. Of what purpose is it that somebody celebrates Christmas every year and still end up in hell not because of his/her sins but because he /she wouldn't or couldn't receive the salvation Jesus brought for us all. 

Jesus came to save us, We are the reason for Christmas. He came so that we can have life and have it more abundantly. John 10:10.   We must tell it to the world so that as we eat our Christmas goodies we will also remember the most important goody of all...HEAVEN!!   Unless you openly confess Jesus as the Lord of your life, believing in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you are doomed forever. This is no joke.

Romans Chapter 10 verse 8-10 says, "But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
What are you waiting for? Open your mouth and make that confession if you have not yet done it, Say, "Lord Jesus, I believe in my heart that God raised you from the dead and I confess you as the Lord of my life."  Then find a Bible believing church and join so you can learn more about Jesus and your new life in Christ.  It's really not hard, that's why the Bible said that the Word is near you, even in your mouth. You only gotta believe and confess it.   I
f you just did this, congratulations to you! Welcome to the family of God!!
Now let's make Christmas fun and tell the world why Jesus came and yes...have a merry Chrsitmas in advance! XOs to you all.
