I just wanted to share some things the Lord has been sharing with me, to help in this time of pandemic.
First of all, I believe that yes we are in a pandemic. This swine flu outbreak is terrible and we should pray for everyone
who gets it, for healing and comfort and relief.
I'm one of those types of people who are very prone to panic attacks. Every time I even think of the word "pandemic" I get nervous.
BUT I have a LORD OF THE PANDEMIC. He is mightier than swine flu! He's our great physician.
I've cried over the thought of this pandemic, and yes I've panicked too. I've thought the worst could happen.
Then....He reminds me that NOTHING will happen to me. Why? Because I have accepted Him as my Savior, I trust Him completely and surrender EVERYTHING to Him, including my fear. I will not walk in fear for it is not of God. I claim His promises and walk in faith for He is trustworthy! He's not out for revenge on His own people, altho I believe that this could just be part of the "birth pangs" leading to His imminent return. Praise the LORD!
If you are a child of God, and have accepted Him as your Savior and Lord He will protect YOU and YOUR FAMILY too!
Should we be concerned? Yes.
But the Lord reminded me over and over.....although the word "panic" is in the word "pandemic"...PANIC NOT! And fear not, for He will protect you. Read Psalm 91 and claim His promise. Then read Hebrews 13:5-6 and be assured of His everlasting protection and provision.
I just felt it was important for me to share that with everyone.
Remember: PANIC NOT, for God is on the throne and He is LORD OF THE PANDEMIC!
