Dear sisters and brothers in Christ Jesus, part of a growing repentance remnant globally,
God willing, beginning on Sunday, January 2, and ending on Saturday, January 22, we will offer 21 days of repentance prayers covering FEARS--- the different fears into which we were born or which we picked up from the world. If these remain unconfessed and without repentance, our walk with the Lord is muted, if not entirely lost. He will support us to remove each one.
He calls us to be holy as He is holy.
Day one: remove the fear of death. Replace it with God's Word as to eternal life for born-again believers in Christ.
Spend time today, one on One with the Holy Spirit, asking Him---even in five minutes of your prayer time--- if you have any fear of death. Did it begin as a child? Was it passed down to you generationally? Does that fear appear in your character today?
Allow Him, Who loves you so much, to convict you of any residue of that sin, that fear of death. With His love, exercise your free will to confess that sin. He will forgive you. He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. And then decide, if you wish, to repent, to turn away from that sin stronghold, replacing it with His Holy Word as your Truth going forward. Choose His Way based on His Word.
Jesus' Word is clear: John 5:24:
" Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. "
The Holy Spirit, writing through Paul to the Corinthians, 1 Corinthians 15: 50-58, then confirms this:
"Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed---in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: 'Death is swallowed up in victory.' O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?' The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."
God bless you for any step you may have taken to remove this fear of death. The Bride of Christ is that much more cleansed!
