Jesus Is Bigger Than Death

We know that death is coming sooner or later,
Still, there is nothing or no one greater than our Savior.
 
Even death takes a back seat to Jesus Christ’s glory,
My willingness to give up carnality will refine the story.
 
This will reveal whether our faith is full of Jesus,
Nothing else should occupy His place of allegiance.
 
After all, faith is not just my ability to hold on to Him,
It’s Christ's ability to hold on to me that delivers us from where we’ve been.
 
So, my faith looks up to His supremacy and authority intentionally,
It inspires my commitment to Him while anticipating and expecting victory.
 
True faith is not confined merely for now,
When death comes, faith becomes sight and abounds.
 
Although life is appointed to death, true faith carries affirmation,
What we have in Christ curates fidelity and loyalty, despite tribulations.
 
It’s encouraging that Jesus knows the suffering before us,
Yet, true faith will see dark days, but He promised to be there with us.
 
He allows the works, tribulations, and poverty that exist,
So, no matter what suffering is before us, true faith keeps us rich.
 
He knows the struggles and heartaches we are going through,
He sympathizes with us because He’s been through it too.
 
Don’t forget, Christ experienced the death that’s appointed,
Those who believe in Him will die and live again, as His anointed.
 
So, there should be no fear, true faith is wonderful,
Our Lord Jesus Christ promises rewards for the faithful.
 
Hallelujah! I am blessed although I am tested,
True faith establishes believers as Christ's investment.
 
Therefore, Jesus calls us to be faithful until death,
True faith perseveres and abides to provide hope and eternal rest.
 
Prayer: Thank You for the hope You provide! In the matchless name of Jesus Christ I pray.
