Summary:

Fear is the tool Satan uses to afflict people and in order to achieve long life, you must not fear death. As a Believer, you have authority over death. God has made provision for you to defeat

the enemy of death through the blood of Jesus. The communion table is a
power package for longevity and when you partake of the body and blood
of Jesus in this way, everything imperfect in your life and physical
body must line up with the Word of God.
