Free From the Fear of Death

HEBREWS 2:14-15

Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil—and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.

Thank you for your response. ✨

Thank You, thank You, thank You… Oh Lord, My God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—for delivering me from the power of the prosecutor who seeks to use Your holy, righteous, and just law against me. I confess to you that I have sinned, I do sin, I fall short of Your glory. Satan’s accusations are not unjust. He is not in error to condemn me for my unrighteous and rebellious behavior. By Your own word, I know that I deserve to die eternally and that no amount of repentance, or sacrifice, or devotion, or righteous living on my part could ever make amends for the sins I’ve committed. Even if my goodness could, somehow, manage to outweigh my wickedness, still, it could not change the fact that I am a sinner and I deserve eternal condemnation. And so, my only hope, my only plea, my only claim to life with You is Jesus! Lord Jesus, thank You, thank You, thank You for loving me enough to do what You’ve done for me. You, by paying the price for all my sins with Your own death have set me free from the law of sin and death. The prosecutor has no more claim against me. Your righteous law has been satisfied. And now, I no longer fear death. In fact, I look forward, in peaceful anticipation, to that moment when I am finally allowed to tumble through death’s dark portal into the light of Your beautiful and radiant presence.
