THE BIBLE SPEAKS ABOUT DEATH

Scripture:  John 11:25 “Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet
shall he live:”

     Job asked the question in Job 14:14, “If a man die, shall he live again?”  And the answer the Bible gives us over and over again is a resounding “yes”!  Death is certain.  Hebrews tells us that we all have an appointment with death!  We may want to cancel that appointment, but it’s not one that we can cancel or reschedule.  Death is inevitable!
    In the text verse, Jesus declares that He is the resurrection and the life, and He promises that for the believer, even when death comes, we shall live on.  In 1 Thessalonians 4: 14 the precious Word of God says, “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.” For the believer, we have eternal life. This old body will die one day, but we shall live on for all eternity!  
    Psalm 116:5 says “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.” We have a hope that we will see our loved ones, who died in the Lord, again!  Remember nothing is ever lost when we know where it is at. 
    Because death is so uncertain as to the time it will take place, we need to be ready all the time.  James 4:14 says, “Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.  For what is your life?  It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.”  Friend, are you ready to meet Him today?
     Though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, there is no need to fear, for His presence will always go with us.  Down into the jaws of death, He will go with us.  And one day will stand in His presence and Revelation 21:4 tells us that God will wipe all tears from our eyes.  Why not get ready today?
