The days of our years are threescore years and ten (seventy years)—or even, if by reason of strength, fourscore years (eighty years)" (verses 9-10, Amplified Bible, Classic Edition). The Amplified Bible, Classic Edition adds a footnote to those verses. It says: "This number [70 or 80 years] has often been mistaken as a set span of life for all mankind. It was not intended to refer to anyone except those Israelites under the curse during that particular forty years. Seventy years never has been the average span of life for humanity. When Jacob, the father of the twelve tribes, had reached 130 years (Gen. 47:9), he complained that he had not attained to the years of his immediate ancestors. In fact, Moses himself lived to be 120 years old, Aaron 123, Miriam several years older, and Joshua 110 years of age." In other words, we, as born-again believers, don't have any business thinking we've lived out our full earthly lifespan at 70 or 80 years old! We're not living under a curse like the Israelites in the wilderness. In Christ, we've been redeemed from the curse and THE BLESSING of Abraham has come on us. How long did Abraham live? He walked on in faith, in the promises of God, past age 80 to the ripe old age of 175. Surely, if Abraham could make it to 175 then we, as heirs of His BLESSING, can believe for 110 or 120 years! Why Settle for Less? "But these are perilous days," you might say. "Good people die young all the time, of everything from disease to accidents to violence to natural disasters. What gives me the right to expect I'll survive all those perils to live a long life?" Psalm 91 gives you that right! It says: "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler" (verses 1-3). The fowler is the devil. He's the one who's always fouling things up, the thief who comes to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10). By promising to deliver you from him, God promises you total protection from anything that would threaten your life. As Psalm 91 goes on to say, He promises to protect you from terrorism, the evil plots of the wicked, pestilence, destruction and sudden death. He promises that no calamity will come near you and that He'll send His angels to defend and preserve you in all your ways. In the last three verses of Psalm 91, God says of the person who walks with Him and believes these promises: "Because he hath set his love upon me…he shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation" (verses 14-16). What does God mean by "long life"? He told us in Genesis 6:3: It's 120 years. That means you don't have to settle for less. You can set your faith to live out the full length of your days. When satan says you'll never make it that long, you can remind him of 2 Corinthians 1:20. You can tell the lying devil that 'all the promises of God in [Christ] are Yes, and in Him Amen' (New King James Version). Claim your 120 years (or whatever you and The LORD have agreed on) and refuse to take no for an answer! Some years ago, while we were in his city, a friend who was a U.S. Army Special Forces commander came to Gloria and me for prayer just before he was about to be deployed. The unit he'd been assigned to had experienced extremely high casualty rates and he wanted us to agree with him in faith for divine protection. I instructed him to do the same thing I had heard a company commander had done during World War I: He had every man in his unit memorize Psalm 91. He ordered them to learn every verse so well that if he walked up to one of them and said, "Verse 2!" or "Verse 6!" every soldier would be able to quote it. That commander made it all the way through World War I without losing a single soldier. Every man in his unit went right through the middle of combat and came out alive. "Keith, I want you to follow that example," I said. He agreed and promised to let me know when he returned from his deployment how things went. Two years later, about 2:30 one morning the telephone rang. Jarred awake, I grabbed it and heard Keith's voice. "Brother Kenneth! I of inheritance in His family.
