SCRIPTURE
With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation (Psalm 91:16).
WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT
Premature death is a curse. While we can’t understand all the factors surrounding why some people “die before their time” or have their life shortened, we can know that God’s intent is for His people to experience long, abundant lives. He is the giver of life. Not only does He want us to live long lives, but He wants us to experience quality of life. That is why Psalm 91:16 says we will be satisfied with long life. This means we are satisfied with the length of our lives, but also that we are satisfied with the kind of days we experienced. Notice the verse also says God will show us His salvation. The word salvation here is the Hebrew word yshuw’ah, or Yeshua, which is the Name Jesus. It means delivered, aided, health, saved, and victory. His Name is victory! What does that victory include? Long life and victory over premature death! Declare today that a long, abundant life shall be yours in Jesus’ Name!
