The devil, through mind control, loves to see people getting ready to die, retire, and to get old and be “out of the way”.
The Scriptures never refer to an overcomer losing his or her usefulness.
We should study how to live.
If you say you are ready to die for God, the devil will usually be the one to accommodate you.
An overcomer is much more useful to the Lord while alive, while satan would just as soon have him dead.
Through witchcraft and mind control, the devil loves to get someone to say “I feel as though I’ll die young” or I’ll never live beyond 52 because my family all dies at that age.”
Proverbs 18:21 “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.”
Matthew 12:37 “For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.”
