Plague
Protection!
"And men were scorched with great heat,
and they blasphemed the name of God
who has power over these plagues; and
they did not repent and give Him glory."
Revelation 16: 9
COVID-19 stands for “coronavirus disease
2019”,
the virus that sparked the worldwide pandemic in
early 2020. Pandemics are not new; from biblical
times to present day, outbreaks have occurred
and taken an untold number of
lives.
Earth has not seen the last of
pandemics.
As in the book of Revelation, plagues are
mentioned twelve times in connection
with the
coming Tribulation.
Pandemics, and diseases in general can strike
fear into the heart of any person. They fall into
the general class of disruptions that Jesus said
will lead up to the end of this age (Matthew 24:
6-8). So how should we live in a world
subject
to pestilence, plague, and disease?
As with other challenges: by faith, not by sight
(2 Corinthians 5:7). Live wisely with precaution.
Most of all,
keep your trust in God. This is the
message of Psalm 91: God is our Shield and
Stronghold against peril, pestilence, and
plagues (verses 3-11).
Nothing separates us from God’s
love in Christ (Romans 8:35-39).
Walk by faith in Him today.
"A sovereign Protector I have,
unseen, yet for ever at hand."
