With the passing of time, human body becomes weak and aged, and the function of all its organs increasingly weakens. Many people seek various methods to maintain and restore youth, but most of them are temporally effective. They cannot find original solution. How then can we believers in God solve this problem?
The breath of the spirit and the breath of the flesh
When we accept Jesus Christ as our Savior and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, the spirit that has been dead in our heart can be brought back to life. Thenceforth the breath of the spirit and the breath of the flesh coexist within us. This breath of the flesh represents the attributes of the flesh and the breath of the spirit, those of the spirit. The body that is under the control of the attributes of the flesh gradually becomes aged and weak because the flesh becomes corrupt and perishes, while the body that is maintained in the influence of the spirit does not become aged or fall ill because the spirit never perishes or corrupts.
On one hand, if our body is controlled only by the breath of the flesh, when we fail to take enough rest and eat properly, we become exhausted and our vigor becomes enervated. Only when we eat nutrient food and have good rest, can we regain good health and lead a vigorous life. On the other hand, if our body is filled with the breath of the spirit, we can maintain youth and experience anti-aging effects. Even if the breath of the flesh is not enough in our body, we can lead an active life by the influence of the breath of the spirit. In this sense, people of old age can restore youth and enjoy good health if they are completely filled with the breath of the spirit.
Daniel and his three friends didn't defile themselves with the king's choice food and the wine sacrificed to idols but instead ate only vegetables and drank water in order to keep the law of God. But their appearance seemed better and they were fatter than all the youths who had been eating the king's choice food. In the same way, if we keep the commands of God and pray fervently, our body is filled with the breath of the spirit and functions at the optimal state, and then we can experience amazing change of the body.
The change of the body by the breath of the spirit
The human body naturally weakens in the function and the cells of the body die in the passage of time. But if the breath of the spirit fills the body, the breath of the spirit removes virulence in the body, and the body has a fast metabolism and then we can be recovered through a little rest and protected from such diseases as are infected by viruses, bacteria and germs.
Even if we are infected with those diseases by mistake, we can be immediately healed through fervent prayers because the breath of the spirit covers our whole body and the fire of the Holy Spirit scorches them. And the functions of the organs including stomach, liver, heart, lungs, and kidneys are restored.
One of the remarkable changes is that the blood is made clean and pure. When the blood is made clean and pure, old people become healthy and restore youth. Clean blood vessels can transport nutrients properly and provide them to all tissues and cells effectively, and discharge harmful factors out of the body. It is said that cells die or become old because of poisonous oxides produced when nutrients turn into energy. Blood provides each cell with fresh oxygen and discharges poisonous oxides from the cell.
The blood can be made cleaner as much as we change into a man of spirit and our body is filled with the breath of the spirit. The clean blood can prevent cells from dying and becoming old and restore the function of the organs; then we can enjoy good health and restore youth transcending the limitation of the flesh.
Secrets to restoring youth
The fathers of faith that appear in the Bible went through the restoration of youth. When Abraham the father of faith was 100 and his wife Sarah was 90, her womb was as good as dead because she passed the age of childbearing. But she gave birth to their son Isaac as promised by God the Almighty. Afterwards Sarah died and Abraham gained 6 more children from his new wife Keturah (Genesis 25:1-2). He could enjoy all these blessings because his body was completely filled with the breath of the spirit. Deuteronomy 34:7 describes the good health of Moses who was a man of whole spirit, saying, "Although Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died, his eye was not dim, nor his vigor abated." Job, who was blameless, upright, fearing God and turning away from evil (Job 1:1), met with severe trials in which all his children died, all his possessions and properties were gone, and he was smitten with sore boils from the sole of the foot to the crown of the head (Job 2:7). Through these trials, he discovered evils hidden within him and thoroughly repented of them so that his blessing doubled and he gained 10 new children and also saw his 4 generations prosper (Job 42:12-17).
As recorded in Proverbs 18:14, "The spirit of a man can endure his sickness, but as for a broken spirit who can bear it?" those who have a lot of anxieties and worries become aged and weak faster than others who don't have. And if you think, "I'm weak because I'm old," you become aged faster.
When we abide by the Word of God and do the things that are pleasing to Him, the sinful natures including hatred, jealousy, and hot temper depart from us and then we can be released from anxiety and worry and have nothing to create sufferings in our heart (Proverbs 15:13). It means that we have no reason to suffer from mental diseases, nervous breakdown, indigestion, and disorder in blood circulation. On the contrary, because we are filled with thanks, joy and hope for Heaven, all the organs of our body function actively and properly, and when we have the strong faith in which nothing is impossible, we can receive the strength to restore youth.
