When Age Makes No Difference
Isaiah 40:28-31
28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth,
fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and
not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
KJV
There will come that day that being young will hold no incentive because of youthful strength, agility or talented natural abilities.
There will come that day that the wisdom of the aged will not offer any advantage, all the accumulation of knowledge and
understanding will all of a sudden stand for nothing. They no longer hold the edge in life. All they have gained young and old
will not see them through what they must go through along with everyone else. The race for every individual to run and the walk
that every individual must have with God if they are to spend eternity with him. Yes there will come that day when only one thing
counts for endurance to persevere and live the life as the more than a conquerer, the always triumphant and the over comer.
And here it is. So let us be the doers of this absolute necessity to ensure our future with God the way God wants it.
They that wait upon the Lord. The word they, is inclusive as well as invitational to anyone who will accept the invite. Wait is not
a passive word here. It means they that will serve the Lord with all their heart in the spirit of humility preferring one another.
Serving him with love of humanity as unto him in the strength and power of the Holy Ghost.
This group of saints will renew their strength. They will come to the point of weakness but in their service to God their strength
will constantly be renewed. Jesus set the example for this in the flesh from the time he was born as a babe. Went to the cross.
Journeyed to hell and defeated the devil for us all, once and for all. Arose and carried his blood into the Holy Of Holies and
satisfied the demands of the justice league of heaven. His service and submission to the Father carried him from one strength
renewal to the next. His agenda though different from ours had the same principal of strength renewal.
Thus we will mount up with wings as eagles or rise up with the strength of the Father renewed in us and bearing us up above
that which would keep us down. We will run our spiritual race then and not be weary. We will not become spiritually exhausted
and fall by the wayside. We will finish our race given us to run in this life with the strength of the Father. Not keeping us abreast
of our problems but above them. On top of the game and not loosing the game.
And we shall walk and not faint. Or we shall flow in unison in the perfect will of God. And with God march and go forward
prospering in all that he has had us to set our hand to. And we will not take flight in the face of the foe, more so according to
the word of God we in the strength and power of God shall go forward resisting the foe and he will take flight and flee in terror.
It is time that we as the church with all due respect one to the other forget age, gender or degree and serve the Lord as never
before if we desire the renewing of our strength by God in our life. If we want to run and walk as he desires us to.
