Earlier this year was one of the scariest times of my life. I found out some shocking news about my health that had me in fear for my life’s longevity. I was having a lot of abnormal symptoms so my doctor suggested running some tests to better detect what was going on within my body. Once my results were in, my doctor called me in for another doctor visit. Immediately all the nerves began to kick in and I just had a gut feeling that some bad news was about to be shared. My doctor then told me that I was at risk for having lupus, and immediately my spirit dropped. Thoughts and questions started to run through my head like : “Does this mean I’m going to die young ?” “ Why are you doing this to me God ?” “ What does my future look like now ?” I tried my hardest to hold back the tears while in the doctor’s office but as soon as I got back in my car, I literally cried out loud as I thought about the fear of dying. Suddenly, I heard the spirit of the Lord whisper to me : “Everything is going to be OK daughter, and you will get through this.” After that moment, I knew it was time to fight this fear of dying that came upon me. I knew this would not be the end but a new beginning to something better on the other side of this. I’ve never dealt with a fear like this before but I knew that my God has conquered this fear before and that same God could help me do the same.
HERE ARE SOME WAYS TO HELP YOU OVERCOME THE FEAR OF DYING :
FIND PEACE THROUGH PRAYER AND MEDITATING ON GOD’S WORD
The possibility of dying is scary but every time I went to God in prayer and meditated on His word, I do remember feeling overwhelmed with peace.
John 16:33 says “ I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
This scripture reminds me that this world comes with many troubles and things that will bring sorrow but in our God there is peace.
For Jesus overcame the world !!!
That means that everything in this world that has and will happen to you, Jesus has already overcome it! And yes that includes death !
Go to Him and His word to bring you peace and reassurance of the many things He has overcome.
