Afraid to die & assurance

Q:

Having difficulty knowing one day I will die. 

I started having panic attacks thinking about this, and I just can’t seem to stop or feel assured about the afterlife. I could use godly advice (& prayer).

A:

I have prayed for you, and that God's peace comes over you. 

I do want to remind you that 

*When we are working through issues, we need to be in the Word. Read 1 John, and make sure you are reading the Bible daily. Here are various reading plans you will enjoy year after year, day after day. 

*That if we are saved, we belong to God eternally, God holds us, God is trustworthy and doesnt lie. Scripture reminds us "No one can take us from Jesus hands." And if saved, we are eternally sealed to God, and the Holy Spirit indwells us, and never leaves. Jesus is always with us. We must believe God, for He is not a liar. We trust Him to save us, and He will keep us. We are also told that "before the foundation of the world" the believers are in the Lambs Book of Life. Jesus paid it all, if we are saved, it is eternal. True peace comes ftom being safe in Jesus. 

First thing I recommend is, ensuring you are saved, (that you didnt come through a false gospel and are a false convert). Go here and review the video and the info below it. Then come back here and go through the below... these resources will be very helpful to you on this topic. 😀 

Death is the beginning of our eternal best life. If we are dead from this human body, we are with Jesus. God has told us this in Scripture.

Once you overcome this, God will use this for your good and for His glory. He will not abandon you. He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it (Phil. 1:6). You will also be able to help others. 

Remember...

2 Timothy 1:7 “for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.”
