Death is the ultimate fear, if l dont fear death l dont fear anything. Live each day like its my last. l need to live my life like an indian brave, and to say today is a good day to die. When l die, people will talk about my life and talk about the last few days of my life. l dont know when that will be. Today would be a day that l wouldnt mind people talking about how l lived my last few days. ln my life, as a wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend, family member, church member, citizen. l need to face my fear, my fear of what people think of me. lf l cant beat the fear of people how will l cope with death. My fear of persecution is what l need to face. lf l cant face persecution at work or wherever l may find myself, how would l face actual persuction as unto death, l need to live every day doing what l should do and live not doing what l shouldnt do. Famous last words, what are going to be my last words. What were Jesus last words, last supper - the future, about a union with God and man his words to pilot was about truth, after His reserection, generations that have not been born yet. He told them to go into all the world and share the Gospel. The last thing He spoke of was the kingdom. l need to be a new creation, to walk in as a new creation always, not just little bursts. l need to have faith for others to be saved, healed ect. l want to live in communion with God.
daniel chapture 3 vs 1,They were not concerned to answer boldly to the king, can l even do this with Morag, barbara or jannette. Lord l need to face this with boldness and courage, facing the highly possiblity of been labelled a religious freak. They did not get protected from the furnace, but the Forth Man was with them and brought them out. l doesnt matter if l go through the furnace or not, because l know WHO walks with me. l do not need to protect my reputation, because HE is with me. lt doesnt matter what l am going through, my God can deliver me from anything. ln the end if l obey God and not man, in the end l will be promoted. lt will end well. Promotion will be jealousy which will bring persecution. l need to expect this. When this happens laws, rules principles will be changed to bring about our downfall, daniel went and prayed, he didnt stop and hide. As soon as l hear the decree has been signed, l need to obey!!!!! And Do!!!!! l need to stop reasoning and over thinking, and just stand up and say this is right and l will do it. Daniel was cast into the den of lions, even the king was preaching, he new that God would deliver daniel. A commanding spirit that is totaly submitted to God and has a commanding spirit over the 'lions' heb chpt 11. Again Daniel gets promoted. John preached 'little children, love one another' this is the fullfillment of the law. Every day l need to look back at the day before l fall asleep and say, 'today would be a good day to die' l need to imagine my living in on record and can be played back. Every thought, atttitude, words, actions are as if they are my last. Whatever l am going through God can bring me out. Serving God is more important then keeping my possessions, reputation ect. l need to be free from the fear of death. There is nothing that l cannot beat through HIM.
