Death is not forever; God sees it simply as being asleep. Believers will wake up in heaven.
The biblical definition of death is “sleep;” God will eventually wake up those people. This gives us great comfort.
“But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words” – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
Shalom is Wholeness, Peace, and Prosperity
It’s not unusual to feel a bit of fear because of everything we’re seeing around us, and all the scary news reports. We’ve got to be careful not to let those reports influence us, because they have the potential for putting us in panic mode. We are spirits living in physical bodies and possessing souls, which is where our emotions reside. God wants us to prosper emotionally; in other words, He wants us to have peace in our souls. “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” – 3 John 1:2
