REQUISITES FOR A LONG, GOOD LIFE
A poem and essay by ILMA
When someone commits to the Lord Jesus Christ
They become a new person and receives his light
God created all things on this earth and in the heavens
He knows every detail and intricacies of his creation.
He wants us to listen to all him and do as he says
It is a requisite for a long good life; follow his ways
If you seek him first and his word, you will prosper
Those who are faithful to follow him will be victors.

Do you want to have a long good life? The bible says that there is only one way to get it. If you listen to what the Lord says and do it, then you are in for the long haul. Without the guidance of Scriptures and God’s truth, we are going to live a life that is only focused on the “self”. That selfish life will only lead to a lot of troubles and heartaches. I can attest to this because I lived that kind of life for over four decades. It was excruciatingly painful to suffer the consequences of wrong choices and decisions I made.
A life without consulting the Lord through his word is a live not worth living.

Lord, remind me to always consult you in everything.

Does anyone want to live a life that is long and prosperous? Then keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies! -Psalm 34:12-13 (NLT)
KEY TO LONGEVITY & PROSPERITY
A poem and essay by ILMA
Does anyone want to live a long and prosperous life?
Make sure you feed on Scriptures and stay in God’s light
Meditate on his truth day and night and follow it
Only then will you reap the fruits of his Spirit.
Keep your tongue from telling lies and speaking evil
It is the best way you can do warfare with the devil
You have authority over the schemes of the enemy
Exercise it by declaring Jesus as your one and only.

There are many books, blogs, videos and seminars that talk about how you can live longer and be wealthy. We are bombarded today with social media explosions on wealth, power, and longevity. What does God say about all the world’s way of having long life and being prosperous?
The bible talks about a different kind of prosperity. In God’s economy, being wealthy doesn’t only mean you have all the comforts and luxuries in life to yourself. Everything comes from God and is given to us so we can be stewards of his kingdom. We cannot claim ownership on anything on earth. We need to be thankful and follow his ways, keeping ourselves from speaking evil and telling lies.
PRAYER
Lord, reveal to me each lie and evil thought that comes to mind.
REFLECTION
Why is it important to hold captive our thoughts and have it obey God?

Does anyone want to live a life that is long and prosperous? Then keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies.- Psalm 34:12-13 (NLT)
SECRET TO LONGEVITY AND PROSPERITY
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you want to live a long and prosperous life?
Have you been feeding on the word to be in the light?
Do you take care of your heart and your body?
Does your mouth talk about things that are pure and godly?
If you want to live long and be wealthy
You ought to keep your tongue from words that are filthy
Keep lies out of your lips then you will gain prosperity
When you follow Christ, you will thrive and have longevity.
So many seminars on prosperity are taken by people obsessed with getting rich. In God’s economy, there is a different secret ingredient to have longevity and be prosperous. Psalm 34 speaks about the formula to gain long life and wealth. It says that we must keep our tongues from speaking evil and our lips from telling lies.
I suspect that unbelievers will find this key ingredient very bizarre because they don’t understand how God operates. An authentic Christian who has walked with God long enough and has spiritually grown knows that everything that thrives is a result of a pure heart and a good mouth.
PRAYER
Lord, deliver me from lies.
REFLECTION
Why do you think people tell lies and speak evil?
