STOP ↑ AND LOOK UP!
Brethren we are living in very perilous times and I believe that too many people are in a panic when they should be in prayer. What are we really facing? The world is facing a pandemic and we are in the world but not of the world. Should Christians panic? Let me answer that in a little bit.
Governments around the world have taken the initiative to mandate quarantines of different degrees depending how much the Covid-19 has affected their country or region. The virus is real and many have lost their lives since the outbreak began. The virus should be taken serious whether you’re a civilian or Christian.
• : Fact the Covid-19 has already taken a toll on the economies around the world.
• : Fact the left leaning new media is exploiting the virus for ratings and to undergird the left’s agenda in the U.S.A.
• : Fact the threat of total shut down of businesses whether they’re essential or not will increase the chance of a deep recession depending upon how long those quarantine mandates are held
• : Fact the U.S.A. which has had a strong recovery from the year 2016 until now: has just fail back to those statistic numbers and high unemployment; because of Covid-19 pandemic
• : Fact if the Federal and State governments do not set a deadline the uncertainty of the economic collapse will drive the stock-market down and the U.S.A. will fall into depression.
• : Conjecture is that the deep state is using this pandemic as a means to overthrow our Constitution, I seen different videos and heard different commentators concerning this conjecture.
• : Conjecture is that if that overthrow happens there could be another civil war.
President Trump has by and in large handle this crisis well and as I have watched many governors have blamed the federal government for their lack of preparedness to deal with major catastrophes such as this Covid-19 pandemic as I read in another post today. Yet let me say this concerning the economy; we cannot afford for essential business to be closed indefinitely as a nation. Christians need to pray and keep praying for our leaders to adopt a plan to curtail this before that happens.
Now to my brethren I say: stop and look up ↑. I see so many Christians who have become bitter because they’ve been ordered to minimize their services to ten or less. Didn’t Jesus warn us about trying times?
(33) These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. John 16:33 KJV
Brethren I am here to tell you that these things will pass; but in the time being God has a plan! Stop and look up and seek the face of God. He promised us that when we seek the Kingdom of God first He would provide for us. I am here to tell that God is a way maker and he will make a way for you! Whatever happens in the world: God has already prepared for it. I tell you now that the purposes of God will not be stifled by what is going on in the world if you lose yourself and pick up your cross and follow him. The word economy comes from the Greek language and means “house rules”. God wants you to depend upon his “house rules”. God has an economic system which has his loyal and obedient children taken care of. No, I’m not saying you won’t be tried; I’m not saying you won’t lose some earthy things because of what’s going on; what I am saying is that God has a plan that can only be accessed through prayer. Brethren; God wants you to hear his voice so he can position you to be the most effective for his Kingdom while he supplies all your needs according to His riches in glory through who? Through Jesus Christ our Messiah who baptized us in the Holy Ghost! We can get a breakthrough when we pray through and get a revelation to know the perfect will of God. When things are uncertain in the world; our God is a God of certainty! When Abraham was uncertain God spoke to him concerning his future.
After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. Genesis 15:1
God said plainly to Abram (Abraham) I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. God is a God of Vision and will give us a vision! Many things are happening this year 2020 because God’s desire is to give us 2020 spiritual vision to accompany the vision commission he has given us; but we must stop and look up ↑. We will certainly find certainty when we seek his face with all our hearts. He declares to the loyal and obedient child I am thy shield and thy exceeding great reward! He’s the God of more than enough; when he blesses he blesses abundantly. Brethren “Fear Not” but trust in the Name of Life the Name of Jesus! Let us find solace in his presence and comfort in the times in which we live; God is greater than the world; let not your heart be troubled! You believe in God; believe in his power of provision!
Things will be normal again let us not be too anxious, bitter, or resentful. When that happens let us remember to be grateful for the freedom to worship God and assembly ourselves together in the traditional sense and never take it for granted. Yes there will be a time when persecution comes and this could very well be a trial run as I heard others say; but until that happens and when it happens let’s learn to be faithful in our hearts and seek God always in all seasons of life. Keep the Faith and the Faith will keep you! Selah
