Get Right With God
COVID-19, otherwise known as the coronavirus-
– has created national fear in a way I have not witnessed in my lifetime.
As of this writing, ball games are being canceled; theaters are shutting down; schools are closing; travel is restricted; and the stock market is on a crazy, wild rollercoaster ride.
Jesus warned us that at the end of time there would be pestilences.
In the last few years, we have endured SARS, the swine flu, Ebola, avian flu, MERS, West Nile virus and now the coronavirus.
Could COVID-19 be one more sign that our redemption is drawing near?
If so, is fear the proper response?
This is the time to look up, from our knees!
Let’s ask God to give us a fresh vision of Himself.
Because “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear.” Psalm 46:1–2.
“I will say of the Lord, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.’ Surely he will save you from … the deadly pestilence …” Psalm 91:2–3.
You and I need to make sure we are right with God so that we are ready to meet Him whenever the time comes.
And then join me in helping someone else get right with God!
Let’s pull out all the stops as we tell others that it’s possible to have peace in the midst of the storm and confident hope for tomorrow, claiming Jesus’ promise, “Surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:20.
“Oh God, please grant peace to our nation in the midst of this storm. Remind us that You see us and that You are in control. You go before us and behind us. You will never leave us. And please heal us.Thank you, God. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
