In a recent YouTube video, Prophet Joshua Iginla, founder and senior pastor of Champions Royal Assembly, revealed two key principles that he believes are essential for preserving one’s life.
Citing biblical wisdom, Iginla emphasized the importance of obedience to parents and the cultivation of wisdom.
Quoting Proverbs, Iginla said, "Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee; love her, and she shall keep thee."
He elaborated, "Wisdom is the secret of preservation. There are two things that will preserve you in life: the secret of longevity. Number one, obeying your father and mother; number two, wisdom." According to Iginla, these two principles are foundational for a long and fulfilling life.
Iginla urged his audience to value the elderly and learn from their experiences. "Meet people who have old age, value them, respect them—people who have lived longer than you. Sow into their lives. Don't be disloyal to them," he advised.
He stressed the importance of respecting one's parents, regardless of their educational background or language skills. "No matter your grammar, your mother can speak broken English and mix it with all. If she's older than you, the secret of long life is to serve people with long life."
He also cautioned against neglecting wisdom and parental guidance. "If you want to be preserved, these are the two keys in life that can preserve you: wisdom and obeying your father and mother in the Lord. When you disrespect parental covering, you can't live long," Iginla warned.
In conclusion, Iginla emphasized that understanding and applying these principles of wisdom and obedience are crucial for the preservation and enrichment of life.
