‭‭Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; [15] and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. Hebrews 2:14-15.

The passage above explains that Jesus took on our flesh and blood to become like us. Through His death, He destroyed the power of the devil, who had control over death. This means that death is no longer a tool for the devil to terrify or control believers. Instead, it is now an entrance to eternal life and reign with Christ. For those who have faith in Jesus, death is not something to fear, but a passage to rest in the presence of the Lord.

When the righteous die, it is not accidental, but an indication that their purpose on earth has been fulfilled. Death is no longer something the devil can use to instil fear and control us. Jesus has not only delivered us from the power of death but also overcome the world for us. Therefore, we should not let fear control us, as God responds to prayers based on faith, not fear.

It's important not to let fear push us away from God. Instead, we should let faith be our guide in seeking God through prayer. The effectiveness and results of our prayers depend on the faith with which we offer them to God, rather than on our fears, shouting, or sweating while offering them. If we want our prayers to be answered, we must first replace our fears with faith in the words of God from the Scriptures. We should then offer our prayers to God in faith.

When fear arises in our hearts, our response should be to find out what God said about our fears in the Scriptures. We should study and meditate on God's words until faith arises in our hearts, and then offer our prayers to God with that faith.

Faith that rises in our hearts through hearing the words of God or meditating on them should draw us to God to make our requests and genuinely believe that He has answered us. Any faith that doesn't draw us to seek or serve God is not true faith. Faith should lead us to look to God, depend on Him for help, follow Him, and give ourselves to Him in service.

Power of Persistence

Power of Persistence  And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them. Judges 8:4 Persistence is essential for pursuing a significant purpose and achieving a vision that seems beyond our strength. Despite their exhaustion, Gideon and his soldiers continued their pursuit of their enemies, demonstrating the power of a clear and compelling goal to inspire perseverance in fulfilling a dream. Persistence allows us to remain consistent and steadfast in our pursuits. Without a great vision, we may struggle to rise from complacency and actively seek God with the dedication needed for constant prayer, which builds a strong spirit, deepens our faith, enhances our understanding of the Word of God, and helps us grow in alignment with our vision.  God does not use casual seekers for the advancement of His kingdom; He relies on those who are consistent and committed. Persistence in prayer and faith is key to receiving an...

You are worthy O Lord..

You are worthy O Lord.. The twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, "You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honour, and power; for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure, they are and were created." — Revelation 4:10-11 Even with the privilege of sitting around God's throne, these elders demonstrate a deep sense of humility before Him. When the living creatures give glory, honour, and thanks to God, the elders do not remain seated, proud of their crowns. Instead, they rise from their seats and fall down before God. In worship, they lay their crowns at His feet, proclaiming that He alone is worthy of glory, honour, and power. The crowned elders understand that there is only one King, and that King is God, deserving of all glory despite the honour they have been given. Like these elders, we must not allow the privileges, gifts, bles...

The Word became Answer

Image
The Word became Answer RSV, John 1:14: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father." The Word, or Logos, became human as God's response to our need for salvation, addressing all our spiritual needs and the limitations we face as humans. The written word, the scriptures, is also provided by God to meet our needs. However, many struggle to find answers to their challenges in the scriptures due to their lack of understanding of them. But those who genuinely seek truth from the scriptures and are willing to obey God's guidance will find that the scriptures are revealed to them, providing a word from God. Casual reading of the scriptures will not yield meaningful benefits. Our comprehension of the scriptures plays a significant role in how we apply them and the guidance we receive. Therefore, we must not only read the scriptures but also study them carefully to uncove...
