The Gate — J Calaway — Make Today Count
“He who fears death will never do anything worthy of living.”
1. Fear of Death Is the Root of Playing It Safe — Hebrews 2:14–15
•Fear keeps us from stepping into purpose — it’s the greatest limiter of faith.
•Jesus came to set us free from the fear of death itself.
🔑 When fear dies, faith rises.
2. Living Worthy Means Living with Eternity in Mind
•Paul lived with eternity as his perspective — that’s why he lived boldly.
•When you remove the fear of death, you remove the limits on obedience.
•Scripture: Philippians 1:21 – “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.”
🔑 Eternal vision produces fearless action.
3. Faith-Filled Living Is Fearless Living — 2 Timothy 1:7; Revelation 12:11
•God’s Spirit in you is not timid — it’s powerful, loving, and steady.
•Overcomer’s don’t shrink back from fear; they overcome it through faith.
🔑 You can’t truly live until you’re no longer afraid to die.
💥 Challenge:
Ask yourself: “What would I do differently today if I wasn’t afraid to fail, to lose, or even to die?”
Then — do that.
Make today count by living bold, eternal, and unafraid.
