Are You Paying Attention?

Do you see how the Coronavirus (COVID 19) has impacted everything and everybody all over the planet? There is no respect of persons when it comes to God. 

People have been hurt, mistreated, violated, and harrassed all over this world. Firstly, we want to make sure that we weren't one of the violators of humanity's trust. We did the best that we could do, always considering what impact our behavior or decisions we made would have on another human being.

But there are plenty who have willfully, intentionally, and undercover--deceptively--worked to destroy and cause discomfort to others. Willfully, intentionally and repeatedly. No economic or social strata has been excluded from the virus that has taken a front row seat in everyone's everyday life, all around the world.

Some church leaders, evangelists, and preachers think that they can rebuke it away or say be gone in the name of Jesus--like opening blind eyes, healing sickness and disease. Yes, this is a spiritual attack on many levels, yet the fruits of the flesh. However, and fundamentally, it is the will of God.

What we need to do is to ask the Lord for forgiveness. We need to confess our sins one to another and to God. Repent and ask the Lord to have mercy on us and this world--that have repeatedly trashed humanity at worst but put food on our tables at best.

This is not a prescription nor a forecast. God is time. God is calling the shots --His time, His way.  Although the interpretation or hypothesis of the origination of COVID-19 is an intellectual finding, there remains both spiritual and cognitive dissonance.

God is in control!

Exercise your authority to tread on serpents and to cast out demons. You are the head and not the tail. Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. Exercise your holy boldness.
