Living like Giants.

I'm thinking of something—let me know what you think.

There are three men in the Bible who, let's just say, had a very unusual relationship with death. They didn’t exactly go the way of the grave like the rest of us expect to. You know them: Enoch, Elijah, and Yeshua. And when you think about it, these three aren’t just cool stories; they’re blueprints for how we ought to live.

First, we have Enoch, whose name means dedicated or consecrated. Genesis 5:24 drops a simple but profound truth: “Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him.” No chariots of fire, no dramatic goodbyes—just a man who walked so closely with God that one day, God must have said, “You know what, just come home with Me.” If that’s not life goals, I don’t know what is! Enoch shows us that a life fully dedicated to God makes death an afterthought.

Then there's Elijah, the fiery prophet whose name means Yahweh is God. You remember his exit—chariots of fire, whirlwind, the full cinematic experience (2 Kings 2:11). Kama ndrama, kama vindeo. But before that, his life was just as intense. He confronted kings, raised the dead, and even called down fire from heaven (1 Kings 18:36-38). The man embodied God's power and presence. Elijah wasn’t just passing through life; he was consumed by his calling. If we are to live like Elijah, we need to be so immersed in God’s presence that fear—even fear of death—finds no room in us.

And finally, Yeshua, whose very name means the -GOD- who -SAVES-. He died, yes he chose to die, but death couldn't keep Him. Three days later, He walked out of the tomb like it was just a weekend retreat (Luke 24:6-7). Jesus didn’t just conquer death for Himself; He made sure that those who belong to Him share in His victory. John 11:25 reminds us, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die.” Jesus teaches us that sonship in God means eternal life—death is just a doorway.

So, what do these three lives tell us? That the people who shouldn’t fear death are those who are:

1. Consecrated like Enoch—walking daily with God.

2. Consumed like Elijah—living fully in God’s presence and power.

3. Connected like Jesus—embracing sonship and the victory over death.

If we live like this, death loses its sting (1 Corinthians 15:55). We stop seeing life as something to survive and start seeing it as something to surrender to God. After all, what’s there to fear when you’re walking with the One who holds life itself?

So, my friends and fellow believers, what do you think? Shall we live as Enochs, Elijahs, and Sons of God? Because if we do, I have a feeling that when our time comes, heaven won’t even need an introduction—it’ll just feel like home. Naenda hivi, tutakam kind of a vibe. 😁
