Where Is Death's Sting?

Where Is Death's Sting? O Death, where is your victory? O Death, where is your sting?—1 Corinthians 15:55


 
Over the centuries, death has been our relentless and unyielding enemy. No one, regardless of worldly rank, strength, or wealth has been able to escape death. As soon as we are born, death becomes our destiny. Many have tried, but no one has developed an antidote for death.

The reality of the resurrection is that death has been defeated! It is no longer the impregnable enemy, for Christ marched through the gates of Hades and claimed decisive victory over death. He conquered death completely; now He assures His followers that we, too, will share in His victory. Christians need not fear death. Christ has gone before us and will take us to join Him in heaven. Death frees us to experience the glorious, heavenly presence of God. No illness can defeat us. No disaster can rob us of eternal life. Death can temporarily remove us from those we love, but it transfers us into the presence of the One who loves us most. God's glory is His presence. Death, our greatest enemy, is nothing more than the vehicle that enables believers to experience God's glory!

Do not allow a fear of death to prevent you from experiencing a full and abundant life. Death cannot rob you of the eternal life that is your inheritance as a child of God. Jesus has prepared a place for you in heaven that surpasses your imagination (John 14:1–4).
Jesus Comforts His Followers Jesus said, “Don’t be troubled. Trust in God, and trust in me. There are many rooms in my Father’s house. I would not tell you this if it were not true. I am going there to prepare a place for you. After I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back. Then I will take you with me, so that you can be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.” John 14:1-4

Death will one day be the door by which you gain access to all that is yours in heaven.

ENGLISH LYRICS: O weary heart, there is a home But He that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be save. Matt.24:13 1.  O weary heart, there is a home, Beyond the reach of toil and care, A home where changes never come: Who would not fain be resting there? Chorus: Oh wait, meekly wait, and murmur not! Oh wait, meekly wait, and murmur not, Oh wait, oh wait, oh wait, and murmur not! 2. Yet when bowed down beneath the load By heaven allowed, thine earthly lot; Look up! Thou' it reach that blest abode Wait, meekly wait, and murmur not! 3. If in thy path some thorns are found, Oh, think who bore them on His brow,' If grief thy sorrow heart has found, It reached a holier than thou. 4. Toil on! Nor deem, though sore it be, One sigh unheard, one pray'r forgot; The day of rest will dawn for thee Wait, meekly wait, and murmur not! Amen.
