Thoughts on the decline of our Lifespan.

We see a continuing decline in the Lifespan of Humanity as we move from the initial span of eternity with a direct walk with the Almighty to the declining span of Adam, Seth, Noah down to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob down to the present day where we are to live for about 120 years and are living a little over half of that amount of time.

Why is this?

When the sinful element of disobedience entered the first created, it ushered in an incompatible element within the dynamic animating spirit (the Holy Spirit) that must be removed as it cannot co-exist with a sin-stained nature. The two are separated through death. It must die as the Holy Spirit is Separate and Distinct from the animating Vital Force. When we consume or take in bad food or incompatible elements into the holy sanctum of our being, we immediately remove it through vomiting and or diarrhea. It must be removed from within our inner sanctum.

Now, this element, commonly called sin, created an environmental distinction between the Holy Spirit and the animating vital force that enlivens all living creatures. By the time we get to the time of Noah, the Lifespan of Humanity is significantly reduced, as sin is pervasive throughout all. Humanity is behaving and doing what it pleases, causing the Almighty to the point of deciding to wipe out all of Humanity.

As the incompatible element of sin continued to have a more significant influence on Humanity, the influence of the Holy Spirit was increasingly compromised to the point of there being no way of redemption. The only thing left to do was to Wipe the Whole thing Out. Fortunately, there have always been elements within Humanity that had enough of the Holy Spirit to be found worthy of being spared. While all of Humanity was wiped out, Noah and his family were spared, and through that one person who had enough spirit to communicate with the Almighty, Noah and his family paved the way for Humanity to continue. Historically, there have been individuals who were found to have enough of the Holy Spirit to find favor in the eyes of the Almighty, who showed enough of a remnant of the Holy Spirit to have communication with the Almighty, which the Almighty could use.

The prophets are a great example. We will call them those who have been called to receive and obey the Almighty through which Humanity may be spared.

As we move through the rest of the Bible, there are those who demonstrate that they have enough of a Holy Spirit to communicate and be used as a living vessel for the Almighty.

Now, who today has enough of a remnant of the Holy Spirit to find favor with the Almighty on their own? No One! Enter the Messiah! A living being, made up of Humanity, filled with the Holy Spirit to resonate with the Almighty. This is our unique relationship with the Messiah, who can resonate with Humanity and the Almighty!

The resonating element that binds the two is FAITH!!

Daily Bible Verse & Prayer

Today's Verse - Psalm 23:1

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.

Psalm 23:1

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

A sheep is only as good as its shepherd. We are incredibly blessed because God is our Shepherd. Our God shepherded his people through the times of the Old Testament. Jesus came and he cared for people because they were like sheep without a shepherd (Matthew 9:36; Mark 6:34). Then, as LORD and Messiah, he identified himself as the good Shepherd of Psalm 23:1-6, and promised even more attentive care as our Shepherd (John 10:11, 14-16). With even deeper emotion and promise, we can say as disciples of Jesus, "The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want."

My Prayer...

O good Shepherd, please carry me like a lamb. Let me tenderly rest in your arms and close to your heart. My life, my future, and my strength depend upon you being my Shepherd. I rely upon you, as my Shepherd, for your correction, leading, and care. Please help me hear your voice above the confusing distractions around me. Under your care, I have no fears. Thank you for being my Shepherd through this life. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

Today's Verse - Psalm 9:2

I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.

Psalm 9:2

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

When was the last time you made up a song?
When was the last time you made up a song of praise to offer to God?
Worried that you can't do it? Don't think it will be good? Don't worry, your only audience is your Abba Father, who longs to hear your heart sing regardless of your voice's perfection or your melody's tune. He wants to rejoice and be glad with you. So open your heart and raise your voice "and be glad and rejoice in" and "sing praise" to your Father, who is also God Most High!

My Prayer...

Holy and Merciful God Almighty, I praise you for the sun rising and setting in glorious splendor. I praise you for the gift of grace. I praise you for the miraculous preservation of your people through the ages, even though they have repeatedly been under attack and oftentimes lost sight of your way. I praise you for sending Jesus, the Son of Abraham and the Son of David, my Messiah and LORD. I praise you for raising Jesus from the dead. I praise you for your promise to send him back for your children. I praise you for your work in my life. I praise, O LORD, and I am glad to be your child. In Jesus' name, I offer my praise and songs to you. Amen.

Today's Verse - Psalm 91:1

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

Psalm 91:1

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

During the summer's scorching heat (which is not quite ended for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere and equatorial zones), where did you find your shadow of protection and refreshment?
When life caved in and the heat of frustration, disappointment, loss, and anger blazed in your heart, where did you turn for deliverance and hope?
When we place our lives in the care of God Most High, we find that his shadow of protection and refreshment covers us. Even in times of difficulty, we know that he has protected us from the worst of Satan's withering attacks and that his presence offers us strength that we may not often see but always can trust. We live in a hard and hot world that is in decay and yearns for deliverance (Romans 8:19-20, 22-23), yet we know that our hope for the future is even greater than what is in this psalm because we will eternally live "in the shelter of the Most High" and "rest in the Shadow of the Almighty" (Romans 8:18, 21, 24-25).

My Prayer...

Give me eyes to see, O LORD, and a heart to believe that you are with me, sheltering me, and long to bless me with rest. I confess that I need this assurance in times when I cannot see any evidence of your presence, protection, or rest. Please be my protection in times of attack and my refreshment in times that bring soul-withering despair. I trust that as my LORD Jesus promised, the Holy Spirit will be my living spring bringing the cool refreshment bubbling up within me (John 7:37-39) until I come to be with you eternally. In Jesus' name, I pray this with anticipation and trust. Amen.
