Knowing God - Death Has No Dominion Over Him



Rom 6:9
Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

Christ has raised from the dead.   Death has no dominion over him.  We can come to Christ with an impending death and know that He has authority over death and we can trust Him with such matters.  Death often intimidates us.  We have not gone through death before and when someone we love dies, we find ourselves processing such a loss with great grief and emotional upheaval.  We can come to Christ and seek His dominion and His rule over matters involving death.  Death has been our greatest enemy but Jesus Christ has conquered death.  Although we don’t like death and it has yet to be thrown into the lake of fire, we can find great safety in knowing our Jesus has conquered death and in Him we can face death without a sense of helplessness.  He has risen.  Death is not even a slightly equal contender against Jesus Christ.  Thank you Lord Jesus for being the resurrection and the life!
