Long life and peace is something that almost everyone wants. But how do you get a long life and peace according to the Bible? In Proverbs 3:1-2, we read what you must do to have long life and experience the peace of God in your life, which is a peace that passes all understanding.
Length of days and long life and peace shall be added to thee
Moj sin, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: Za duljinu dana, i dug život, i mir, hoće li ti dodati(Izreke 3:1-2)
The father gives his son the advice to not forget his law and to keep his commandments in his heart. If the son listens to his Father and follows up on his advice, then length of days and long life and peace, shall be added to him.
This applies also to the born again Christian, who has become a son or daughter of God the Father.
The Father advises you, to not forget His law, which is written in His Word and to keep His commandments in your heart.
When you keep His commandments and walk according to His Word, then you shall walk in Njegova želja. When you shall do His will, then length of days, and long life and peace shall be added to you.
You shall not worry, nor be dismayed, but you shall live in perfect peace; the peace of God, that passes all understanding. It’s the peace that no one can give you, except for Jesus Christ; riječ.
‘Budi sol zemlje’
