I heard The LORD say, “Grow old in Grace!”

“O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works. 18 Now also when I am old and gray-headed, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.” Psalm 71:17-18.

“The years have come for My People to make discoveries new and different.

Not that anything has changed but the way you see growing older should certainly be sharper and clearer.

But you say, “LORD, my eye sight is getting dimmer and footsteps shorter!”

But I say to you, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” (1 John 4:4)

The Greater One lives in you. As you grow older — My Love and everything about Me grows deeper. My love and the richness of My Spirit take up closer residence with your spirit.

Your wits may seem intensely shallow but My Grace is sufficient.”

“And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9.

“I know about the memory clashes, how your heart skips beats, and at other times accelerates. I know children I just know.

I know how you forget things. I know you have fear of others seeing your memory loss. I know you are afraid your family will put you away or not trust your judgment.

I know when your money runs low and you decide to take on outside work.

I know when you choose medication over food. I know when your body gets over heated because you are afraid to turn up the air (worried about the bill).

I know when you turn down social affairs because you do not have money for outings or special dinners. I know children I just know.

I know the way you walk has changed because bones and joints wear out. I know about the holes in your shoes.

I know you eat stale bread and wear dirty clothes.

I know you refuse to open the door for guest because your accommodations are not the best.

I know about dust on furniture your eyes do not see.

I know you burn things on the stove. I know you talk to animals and find more comfort than talking to people. I know children I just know.

I know when you pretend not to be sick because you do not want to burden others.

I speak healing to your hearting hearts. My children speak to Me I understand your labors. My Grace is sufficient.

I speak peace to you My elder ones — you are not forgotten.

Your Angels are released as you read these words. They bring comfort and provisions for your needs. I love you My aged ones.

Do not be overwhelmed by your current conditions. You shall prosper in old age.”

“Those that be planted in the house of The LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing; to shew that The LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.” Psalm 92:13-15.

“When you think about your predicaments, remember Mine,” (Isaiah 53).

“Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of The LORD revealed? For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and The LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. Yet it pleased The LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of The LORD shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.” Isaiah 53:1-12.

“And ye shall serve The LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.” Exodus 23:25.

“To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Blessed is he that considereth the poor: The LORD will deliver him in time of trouble. The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies. The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.” Psalm 41:1-3.

“He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.” Psalm 147:3.

“Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of The LORD; that The LORD is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.” James 5:11.

“Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of The LORD: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and The LORD shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” James 5:13-16.

It Is Well With My Soul
