Message Minute (Standing in Victory)

When John encountered the risen Christ in all His glory, he fell as though dead. But Jesus's response wasn't to maintain that terror – He told John not to be afraid. This same Jesus, who holds the keys to death and hell, stands between us and our fears today. He has overcome every enemy that could truly harm us. This truth doesn't mean we won't face frightening circumstances, but it does mean we don't face them alone or without hope. The same power that conquered death lives in us through Christ. We can face our fears with confidence, knowing that ultimate victory is already secured.

Verse: "Don't be afraid! I am the first and the last, the living one. I was dead, but now I am alive forever. I have the keys of death and hell." - Revelation 1:17-18

Reflection Question: How would your response to current challenges change if you truly believed Jesus stands between you and your fears?

Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank You for Your victory over death and every other power that threatens me. Help me to stand firm in the confidence that You are with me and that You hold all things in Your hands. Amen.
