#YOUTHFULNESS WITH CHRIST

     Now Jesus himself was about thirty years old when he began his ministry [Luke 3:23], being, as was supposed, son of Joseph, the son of David (note also even David His great great grandfather became a King when he was 30 yrs old). What I want to enlighten here is that there is relationship between Christ and youthfulness/youngness, and I am thinking what the youth can do which old men and child can’t do it; are so many. There is extra energy [dunamis] in youthfulness that’s why the Christ entity [the Godhead] in Jesus of Nazareth happens to be energized more at his youth/young age and manifested physically and it is on that time; called a set time for Him to accomplish His mission on earth, and before that time even when His mother Mary tried to convince Him to do something miraculous He said to her "my hour (time) has not yet come". And I am wondering why then the set time happens to be on His youth/young age and not child age, neither old age. For sure; Youths/young men have high privilege if and only if maintain good intimacy with God and perform God’s will, this is the Truth even if you conduct a test between child, youth/young man and old man you will sense it clearly, not only spiritually but also physically that in youthfulness there is something extra expressed by power which is from God, something different compared to the child and old man which if only used as per God’s plan will glorify God forever. In the Holy Bible Apostle John said something in regard to the youth in 1 John 2:14; he says “..........I am writing to you, Young men because you are strong........”, as I have said power of God is energized more when God’s word lives in you and this gives assurance to overcome all desires and evils in this world. It is at this youthfulness form when man became beautiful, handsome, and smart at brain, powerful, attractive, creative, bold, responsible, impressive, and gifted and many things of God nature are exposed, though the battle with a devil became so intense in sense that many destinies of youths/young men are diverted and destroyed at the age of youth/young man time into wrong directions with wrong motives which is against the will of the Creator of all things.

    As I said it already there is relationship between youthfulness and Christ; the way youths/young men are seen i.e. more powerful, strong, bold, more impressive and attractive and responsible these characteristics differentiate them much with what the children are seen and old men are seen. But all in all its because of God’s power, that’s why even a Child once encounter God at his/her earlier age you will sense her/his boldness and strength can be compared with that of the matured young man. Also even the Old man once anointed by God not only spiritual life but also his physical body and life became like youth i.e. like young men; his body became of young man, his/her talk and the strength in him/her can even not be comparable at all with that he/she had before being anointing by God, because he/she became a new person with renewed mind and spirit, powerful one being born again as new person with strength and power from above. And the more anointed man of God maintain his good intimacy with God, the more he maintain his youth like body and life, you can just count his/her age not based on how he looks like because you will be confused, but based on when he/she was born, this is simply because the anointing of God makes men young and strong and life in them became eternal [Deuteronomy 34:7]. If you read the Holy bible about Moses you will know how the anointing of God pulls man back from old age look to youth age look.

      Even angels of God those the Holy bible talk about them 2,000 years ago you will find that even today they are same, because to God; the age is just a number and record and no relationship between God’s power and time, neither God and time; He is the same yesterday, today and forever [Hebrews 13:8], and in the book of Daniel we read about Ancient of Days whom you can’t compare His age and how He is, this is because He is the same God in all the time, forever [Daniel 7:9-10].

       Therefore it’s like Youthfulness is one of the revelations that power of God is active in the person, that’s why even weak or ill child can look like old man, or young man can look like old man when he is ill or weakened by diseases; this is the result of less power of God in the person. You can see also Holy Bible warns youths/young men in Ecclesiastes 12:1 that we should remember our Creator in the days of our youth (when we had a sound mind); so is at time of youth when the journey of life is assessed and tested and destinies are rejuvenated and the devil business became more concentrated upon youths/young men to destroy and kill them not to reach where God intended them to reach i.e. inner realizable purpose of life.

      Let youths/young men all around the world be awakened and the good intimacy with Almighty God be strengthened to overcome all desires and evils in this world; But remember it is only through JESUS CHRIST this mission is possible, you will be a changed person with renewed mind and spirit, if and only if you believe that JESUS CHRIST died for our sins and make decision now from your heart to be your saviour, you will be a saved youth in Christ and that's when you will be forever young in Him JESUS CHRIST of Nazareth, receive Him today you, youth!!. Amen.
