Fear of Dying?
What do you mean you are scared of dying? What is there to be afraid of?
Death does not need to be dreaded. You don’t need to fear it. In this video, I will help you with this anxiety.
God wrote,…” that through death He might RENDER POWERLESS him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,”
Because of this passage, I get to tell you the Devil, no longer, can give you a REASON to fear death. He is POWERLESS.
Remember when there were only 2 members of mankind. The Devil QUESTIONED them. He TEMPTED them. He LIED to them. And it worked. They sinned.
They believed the Devil MORE than God. “Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned—
The Devil caused sin, and sin brings death. Romans 3.23 begins “For the wages of sin is death, …
So, whenever you dread Death you remember, the Devil is LYING to you, AGAIN.
Jesus DESTROYED death. That is why Jesus is associated with LIFE.
How did he do it?
Well, The Son of God while in heaven, could not die in His heavenly form. As part of God’s ETERNAL plan, He became human. So death became possible.
While living here, Jesus kept saying that people were not ‘dead’, but were ‘asleep’. He tried to give a message of HOPE. Death was not to be feared. He said, “… I came that they may have LIFE, and have it ABUNDANTLY.”
But people didn’t listen very well. No one back then seemed to understand his message.
So, Jesus demonstrated how death is not as DOMINANT as Satan shows you. He died on the cross and was buried and 3 days later was resurrected. He proved Death is not FINAL.
Because of Jesus, we are not like Rover, just, dead all over. We do not go out of existence.
His death, burial, and especially his resurrection shows the Devil to have NO POWER over you.
The last part of Romans 3:23 says, “… but the free gift of God IS ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS our Lord.
Now, you can start listening to Jesus and avoid the Devil’s delusion.
Death becomes less frightening when you understand what the Devil is trying to do to you.
Don’t play the Devil’s games. Do not listen to him. Recognize temptation. Resist him. Jesus did and Satan left.
And if you will send me an email today, I will help you establish a solid relationship with Jesus. Then the Devil will have even less power over you. Even less to be afraid of. Even less anxiety.
