Good - Life Devotional: HAVE A STRONG WILL TO LIVE 

By Michael Benson Ajayi 

  Psalms 116:8 "For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling."

  Psalms 91:16 " With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation."

A strong will to live is a profound theme woven throughout the Bible, emphasizing resilience, purpose, and faith. This determination is exemplified in numerous verses that encourage believers to persevere, trust in God’s plan, and find strength in His promises.

One of the most compelling illustrations of a will to live is found in the book of Psalms. Psalm 118:17 declares, “I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.” This verse encapsulates the essence of resilience, urging believers to embrace life with the intention of sharing God’s deeds and glorifying His name. It’s a testament to the belief that life itself is a platform to witness and proclaim God’s goodness.

In the New Testament, the apostle Paul reinforces this concept. In Philippians 1:21, he writes, “For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Paul’s words highlight a dual purpose: living for Christ means actively participating in and spreading His teachings. This perspective instills a robust will to live, driven by the desire to fulfill God’s mission on earth.

Furthermore, Isaiah 41:10 offers reassurance against the trials of life: “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” This verse promises divine support and strength, empowering believers to face life’s challenges with courage and determination.

The Bible’s teachings collectively affirm that a strong will to live is rooted in faith, purpose, and the unyielding support of God. Believers are encouraged to find strength in His word, live purposefully, and trust in His divine plan, ensuring that their lives reflect His glory and grace.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to overcome the fear of death. Amen
