Bible Reading: 1 Corinthians 15:55-57.
Memory verse: I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the LORD. Psalm 119:18 (NKJV)
Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a Pastor and was executed sometime in 1945. He was not only martyred strictly because of his Christian beliefs but also because of his involvement in the plot to kill Adolf Hitler. He strongly opposed Hitler’s treatment of the Jews. As a Christian Pastor, he could not watch the murder of millions of men and women under Adolf Hitler. Dietrich was hanged just two weeks before soldiers from the United States liberated the Concentration Camp where he was captured.
Hum….just 14 days before he could have been rescued! He could have become a living legend who lived for his faith in Christ, and love for the human race. He fell into the cold hands of death before his rescue. Why should Dietrich’s deliverance be so close yet, he died before the arrival of his deliverers? This is one of the mysteries of life!
Key point: It Is Against The Will Of God To Die Before Your Deliverance.
Prayer points: Make sure you reconcile your ways with God by confessing your sins. Plead the Blood of Jesus (7times) before you pray these prayers:
CONFESS THIS 21 times: Ps 118:17 “I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.”
- Power of the grave hunting my destiny, die by fire, in the name of Jesus.
- Blood of Jesus, flush every sting of death out of my life in Jesus’ name.
- Foundational spirit of death rocking the boat of my family, my case is an exception, in the name of Jesus.
