CORONAVIRUS

CORONAVIRUS

The whole world is in a panic over coronavirus -
what ever that is.  There is a whole lot of hype
over this virus.  Only God himself truly knows
how serious it is.  Whether it is man made or
something else.

Never the less the panic is being used for
political purposes and probably for monetary
gain for those in powerful places.

But what has that got to do with you and me.
It could be a matter of life or death - yes.
So how do I protect myself?

Vitamins may be a help.  Clean hands will help.
Isolation can help.  Medicine may help.  And
even doctors can help.  And in this area people
are going nuts over toilet paper.

BUT THE ONLY TRUE PROTECTION IS
IN GODHIMSELF.

As a very, very old man who has outlived
most of my contemporaries, and should have
been dead years ago because my body
quit working properly, I want to share where
my help has come from.
GOD. 

And this is one of the main passages of
Scripture that I cling to and has kept me
going thus far.

"Those who live in the shelter of

the Most High

will find rest in the shadow of the

Almighty.

This I declare about the LORD:

He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;

he is my God, and I trust him.

For he will rescue you from every trap

and protect you from deadly disease.

He will cover you with his feathers.

He will shelter you with his wings.

His faithful promises are your armor

and protection.

Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,

nor the arrow that flies in the day.

Do not dread the disease that stalks

in darkness,

nor the disaster that strikes at midday.

Though a thousand fall at your side,

though ten thousand are dying

around you,

these evils will not touch you.

Just open your eyes,

and see how the wicked are punished.

If you make the LORD your refuge

if you make the Most High your shelter

no evil will conquer you;

no plague will come near your home.

For he will order his angels

to protect you wherever you go.

They will hold you up with their hands

so you won't even hurt your foot on

a stone.

You will trample upon lions and cobras,

you will crush fierce lions and serpents 

under your feet!

The LORD says, 'I will rescue those who

love me.

I will protect those who trust in my name.

When they call on me, I will answer;

I will be with them in trouble.

I will rescue and honor them.

I will reward them with long life

and give them my salvation.' "

(Psalms chapter 91 NLT)
