Summary: This passage of Scripture raises a very interesting question. WHY? Why should the young remember God and serve Him in their youth?
Do you want to have a thrilling and exciting life? Do you want to wake up every morning and jump out of bed exciting about the coming day. Well, get on board with Jesus. You will never regret a day spent living for Him.
THE VICTORY
Want to have total victory? Paul gave us the secret.
2Tim. 4:6-8 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
I would like for you to picture yourself standing before the judgment seat of Jesus. You gave your life to him while you were young. You walked with Him through all the struggles and trials you faced. He got you through and was faithful to you in every turn of your life. He was with you.
That final day has now come. You can hold up your head and say, "I was not faithful in everything, Lord but you and I walked together all the way. THAT IS A LIFE OF VICTORY.
