But God released him from the horrors of death and raised him back to life, for death could not keep him in its grip. –Acts 2:24(NLT)
RELEASED FROM DEATH
A poem and essay by ILMA
What forms of death are you going through?
Does your heart needs to be renewed?
Living in sin can bring death in your life
Only in Jesus Christ can you have light
God released his Son from the horrors of death
He will also deliver you and ransom you from debts
God will keep his promise to free you from bondage
Repent and confess your sins and bring him homage.

So many people fear the horrors of death. Some individuals do not even discuss the subject of death because they are afraid to even think about it. I was a fearless child. When my parents attend funerals, they can’t even look at the coffin of the deceased because of so many superstitious beliefs. As young as four or five, I remember asking some of my relatives to carry me so I can look at the dead body. Deep inside me, I wanted to pray for these people and feel happy that they are with God already. I secretly wished I follow soon too so I can see Jesus.
The bible says that God released Jesus from the horrors of death and raised him back to life. Death had no grip on anyone who belongs to him.
PRAYER
Lord, let me be brave to face anything for you.
REFLECTION
What forms of death have God released you from?
