Growing Old Without Being Worn Out

We are taught to live a healthy lifestyle, eat nutritious food, go to a doctor for a regular check up, take your vitamins, exercise daily, so on and so forth. These things aren't bad but it doesn't give us the guarantee that we can be perfectly healthy by following all of these. I've seen some people who are living healthy lifestyles and yet failed to reach the age of 40.

“Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak nor his strength gone.” - Deuteronomy.‬ ‭34:7

Moses didn't have the health infos that we have today and yet he lived an age of 120 without weakening in his eyesight and strength. If we were able to go back in his time we would surely flock on him and ask for some health tips. What is the secret for Moses' strength? A strength that doesn't wear out despite of getting older.

The Bible says that he was able to speak with God and hear his word face to face just like how a man speaks with his friend. He remained on top of mount Sinai without eating and drinking twice, for a total of 80 days as God was speaking to him. When he came down, instead of feeling weak his face was shining! No trace of weakness can be seen upon him. Being able to stay in the presence of God and hear from him sustains his body with health. I believe this is the very reason behind the strength of Moses.

Today, we can also receive the same kind of health that Moses had by hearing and speaking with God face to face. No, you don't need to climb some mountain if that's what you are thinking by now. God made a better way for all of us to hear and speak with him face to face. And that way is through his son Jesus Christ.

In the time of Moses, he was the only one qualified by God to speak with him directly and receive such strength. But today, everyone is qualified by the blood of Jesus to enter God's throne and receive grace. When we spend time reading and pondering about God's word and see revelations of Jesus behind it we are receiving the same health that Moses had. I myself experienced this wonderful health for the past 6 years. I never visited a hospital, never took a medicine and yet no sickness can stay in my body for more than a day. I don't take exercise often and maintain a nutritious diet yet I feel very strong and healthy. Seeing Christ in his word daily is the only diet that I take.

We are living in an age where God and his blessings are available to everybody. Today, you can hear and speak with God face to face as you see Christ in his word and receive the same health that Moses had. Have eyes that will never dim and strength that will never abate. Grow old without being worn out.
