Satan Had Power Over Death…Had

Scripture

Hebrews 2

14 Because God’s children are human beings—made of flesh and blood—the Son also became flesh and blood. For only as a human being could he die, and only by dying could he break the power of the devil, who had the power of death. 15 Only in this way could he set free all who have lived their lives as slaves to the fear of dying.

Observation

Had … Satan had power over death, but no more! We do not have to fear death any longer because Jesus Christ has conquered death. The devil evidently used to have power over death, but no longer. The devil is still powerful, but not as powerful as the One Who lives in us!

Are you afraid of dying? If you are have you ever asked yourself why? Maybe it is a lack of faith or maybe it is just because you haven’t meditated on this passage. We have been set free from worrying about death because Jesus died and came back to life to show us that He has conquered death.

Application

I will walk in victory today because Jesus has set me free from the fear of death.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for dying in my place so that I can live with You forever.
