Fit for life

DE Deutsch EN English
Adventure is mostly associated with young people. But not only the young, but also the older generations have expectations of life.

For example, Moses was 120 years old when he climbed Mount Nebo. When he reached the summit, he saw a wide, beautiful country in front of him. This breathtaking sight must have moved him deeply. He saw with his own eyes what God had promised Israel. Until his death, Moses looked ahead; his faith was firmly based on God’s promises.

And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated. Deuteronomy 34,7 (KJV).


The promises of the Bible


Life with God is adventurous. Sometimes we will climb a mountain and sometimes God will lead us down into the valley. The Bible makes many promises to help us in our lives. What did she promise us?
  • Divine Care in Sickness Psalm 41,4
  • Never ending blessings. Psalm 133, 3
  • Those who call on the name of the Lord will be saved. Joel 3,5
    Before the world came into being, we were promised eternal life. Titus 1,2
  • Deliverance from suffering and pain Revelation 21,4

If we live according to his will and trust him, we will find that any age can be adventurous, whether we are 18 or 80 years old. Let us not rest, but rather tackle something new!

We also climbed many mountains. Will we reach the goal of eternal communion with God?

If we don’t have to die at a younger age, we will get older too. Hardly anyone is 120 years old. But we can and must know whether we will achieve the eternal promised goal in God’s fellowship!


The smart one makes decisions

Moses prays:

So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90,12 (ESV)

Billy Graham writes in his book „On the Blessings of the Late Years“

The length of our lives may vary, but ultimately death will overtake us all. Yet Christians receive hope and comfort from God’s Word, which says: „Blessed are those who die in the Lord“ (Revelation 14:13).

Have we already made the final travel preparations? For people whose sins have been washed away by the blood of Jesus, death is not a journey into the unknown, but a coming home to the upper house of the father!

Many years ago the ship „Empress of Ireland“ sank with 130 Salvation Army officers and other passengers. Only 21 of the Christian workers could be saved. Of the 109 people who drowned, not one was wearing a lifebuoy!

The survivors later shared how these brave people, seeing that there weren’t enough lifebuoys, took off their own and put them on others, saying, „I know Jesus, so I can die better than you.“ And so they left into the wet grave.

Jesus throws us the lifebuoy today. Seize him! Can it be the last of every day?


Who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.
1.Timotheus 2,4-5 (ESV)

Deutsch English Psalm 24 ein Lied Davids. König David war ein geliebter des Herrn. Siebzig Jahre König in Israel. Er war Musiker, Dichter und Prophet. Ein Lied von David. Dem HERRN gehört die ganze Welt und alles, was auf ihr lebt. Die Erde befestigte er über dem Wasser, ihre Fundamente legte er auf den Meeresgrund. Psalm 24, 1-2 (HFA) Weil Gott die ganze Erde schuf, darum kommt er mit Macht, um sein Eigentum in Besitz zu nehmen. Der Psalm Schreiber fragt: Wer darf auf den Berg des HERRN gehen? Der Weg zum Schöpfer führt hinauf! Psalm 24,3 (HFA) Die Antwort: „Jeder, der kein Unrecht tut und ein reines Herz hat. Jeder, der keine fremden Götter anbetet und keinen falschen Eid schwört. Einen solchen Menschen wird Gott mit seinem Segen beschenken und ihn für schuldlos erklären; der HERR ist sein Helfer! Das gilt den Menschen, die sich nach dir richten und im Gebet deine Nähe suchen, du Gott Jakobs.“ Psalm 24,4-6 (HFA) Es sind Personen, die das Heil brauchen; Sie empfangen Gerechtigk...

Danach werden wir, die wir leben und übrigbleiben, zugleich mit ihnen entrückt werden auf den Wolken, dem Herrn entgegen in die Luft. Und so werden wir beim Herrn sein allezeit. 1. Thessalonicher 4,16-17 (LUT) 'König Jesus kommt zurück auf die Erde! Das ist eine gute Nachricht für Menschen, die zu Seinem Königreich gehören, denn Er nimmt sie mit in Sein himmlisches Reich, in dem es keinen Schmerz und kein Leid und keine Krankheit mehr gibt. Für Menschen, die nicht zu Seinem Königreich gehören ist das eine sehr schlechte Nachricht, denn Er wird all der Ungerechtigkeit und den Dingen, die sich Menschen gegenseitig antun, nicht länger zusehen, sondern Seine Aufgabe als Richter aller Menschen wahrnehmen.  Woher  weiß ma...

More Info:  https://www.wiederkunft-jesu.info/ For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. 1. Thessalonicher 4,16-17 (ESV) King Jesus is coming back to earth! This is good news for people who belong to His kingdom, for He is taking them to His heavenly kingdom where there is no more pain, suffering, or sickness. This is very bad news for people who do not belong to His Kingdom, because He will no longer look on at all the injustice and things people do to one another, but will carry out His task as judge of all people. So how do you know if you belong to His kingdom? The problem is that humanity has been drawn into a rebellion against their king. Every human since then has been born into the ...
