You Have Long Life

“When he calls on me, I will answer; I will be with him in trouble and rescue him and honor him. 16 I will satisfy him with a full life and give him my salvation.”
There are four different Greek words translated “life” in the New Testament. First, there is ‘Zoe’. Then there is ‘Psuche’ that means natural or human life. Then there is ‘Bios’ which means manner of life. And lastly, there is ‘Anastrophe’ which means confused behaviour. So, since God has already given you Zoe life he will extend and satisfy you with your natural human life.
Let us now look at the following Scriptures: “I am one mocked by his friends, who called on God, and He answered him, the just and blameless who is ridiculed” – Job 12:4 NKJV. “Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me” – Psalm 50:15 NKJV. God is always with you.
It does not matter what the crisis is, the Lord will always be there with you: “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned or scorched, nor will the flame kindle upon you.” Isaiah 43:2 (AMP). Remember that the Lord loves you very much and He satisfies you greatly with long life.
