You’ve walked with God for decades.
You’ve built your life on His Word, made wise decisions, and honored Him in your home and in the marketplace. You’ve been blessed—financially, relationally, spiritually. You’ve seen His faithfulness time and again. You have no intention of turning back now.
And yet… something lingers beneath the surface. A holy question:
“Is there more than this?”
Not out of discontentment or rebellion, but out of hunger. A longing to see the fullness of God—His miraculous power, His unmistakable leading, His transformative touch on people through your life. You read the pages of Scripture, and while you know God’s Word is true, you can’t help but wonder:
Where are the signs and wonders?
Where are the divine appointments?
Where is the Gospel setting captives free—through me?
If that’s you, this word is for you. Not to dismiss your maturity, but to reignite your fire. Not to criticize your wisdom, but to stir your faith.
Because yes—there is more.
1. Don’t Let Comfort Become a Cage
Affluence and success are not evil. In fact, they can be powerful tools in the hands of a faithful steward. But the blessings of God can also become a subtle trap. When we have much to protect, we may stop risking. When our schedules are full, we may stop reaching. When we’ve already been fruitful, we may stop sowing.
Paul warned Timothy that in the last days, people would have a form of godliness but deny its power (2 Timothy 3:5). That can happen even to seasoned believers—not because of immorality, but because we grow accustomed to life as it is. Predictable. Manageable. Safe.
But the Spirit-filled life is anything but safe. It is a daily walk of faith, obedience, and surrender.
And sometimes, even in your 50s, 60s, or 70s, God stirs you again—not because your foundation was faulty, but because there is fresh ground to take.
2. The Miraculous Is Still Possible
If you’re longing for the supernatural, take heart—God has not changed.
“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8)
The miracles in Acts were not reserved for the apostles alone. They were the overflow of believers fully yielded to the Holy Spirit, living out the Great Commission in real time.
So ask yourself honestly:
- Have I asked God to work through me lately in miraculous ways?
- Have I laid hands on the sick and prayed, expecting healing?
- Have I fasted and prayed for breakthrough in someone else’s life?
- Have I given sacrificially to someone in need, expecting God to show up?
Miracles often meet us at the end of ourselves, not at the height of our comfort. If you want to see God move like He did in the Bible, it may require you to step out like they did in the Bible—with boldness, dependence, and a refusal to settle for what’s explainable.
3. There Is More of God to Know
The older we get, the more tempted we are to say, “I’ve heard that before.”
But the mystery and majesty of God is inexhaustible. Even Paul, after decades of walking with Christ, said:
“I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings…” (Philippians 3:10)
This wasn’t a new convert talking—it was an apostle who had seen the risen Lord! And yet, he still longed to know Christ more deeply.
Spiritual maturity isn’t about knowing all the answers. It’s about having a deeper hunger for the One who does. There is always more to know, more to behold, more to experience in God.
So ask Him to stir your heart again—not just for understanding, but for intimacy. Invite the Holy Spirit to show you what you’ve grown numb to, or what you’ve dismissed as “not for this season.” There may be treasures waiting for you that can only be unlocked in this chapter of life.
4. Your Voice Is Needed—Now More Than Ever
Maybe you’re not surrounded by people you can disciple. Maybe you’re not often asked to lead, to speak, or to mentor. But the world is starving for wisdom—real, grounded, Scripture-saturated wisdom that comes from someone who has lived it.
Don’t underestimate the power of your life. You may not be leading stadium crusades, but you may have just the voice that one young man or woman needs to keep walking in faith. You may have the patience to listen without judgment. The discernment to challenge a foolish idea. The integrity to model holiness in a world drowning in compromise.
God did not give you decades of faithfulness so you could coast to the finish line. He gave you depth so you could give others a well to drink from.
So ask God:
- Who needs what I’ve learned?
- Where are the “Timothys” I can pour into?
- What younger believers need encouragement, correction, or just a safe space?
Don’t wait to be invited. Initiate. Invest. Intercede. The harvest is plentiful, and seasoned laborers are rare.
5. The Greatest Impact May Still Be Ahead
God is not finished with you.
“The righteous will flourish like a palm tree… They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green.” (Psalm 92:12–14)
Don’t believe the lie that your most meaningful contributions are behind you. Moses was 80 when God called him to lead. Caleb was still taking territory at 85. Anna, the prophetess, spent her final years worshiping and proclaiming the Messiah.
In the Kingdom of God, the best wine often comes last (John 2:10).
So ask God boldly: What do You want to do through me now?
Maybe it’s starting a ministry. Maybe it’s writing your story. Maybe it’s funding missions. Maybe it’s adopting a struggling church. Maybe it’s planting the Gospel in a place others won’t go.
The call doesn’t retire. The mission doesn’t expire. As long as you have breath, you have purpose.
6. Return to the Simplicity of the Gospel
Sometimes, we look for something “more,” forgetting that the most world-shaking power is in the simplicity of the Gospel.
“For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.” (1 Corinthians 2:2)
If you’re longing for a renewed sense of mission and awe, return to the cross. Preach it to yourself. Share it with someone who’s never heard. Sit with someone who’s broken and show them the grace you’ve known for decades.
Evangelism isn’t a young man’s game. It’s the cry of any heart that remembers what it’s like to be lost—and rejoices that we’ve been found.
A Final Word
If you’re reading this and your spirit is stirred, then God is already answering the question: “Is there more?”
Yes. There is more joy, more surrender, more power, more fruit, more fire, and more glory.
But the more comes not from doing more, but from going deeper—deeper into faith, deeper into sacrifice, deeper into the radical love of Christ.
You are not too late. You are not too old. You are not too far past your prime. You are right where God can use you—if you’ll give Him your full “yes” again.
So rise up, seasoned saint.
You’re not done.
You’re just getting started.
