Hebrews 4:16 Let us come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain ,mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
Song: In Times Like These, We Need A Savior, In Times Like These We Need An Anchor (Hope, and Faith in God, Stability) Be Very Sure Your Anchor Hold, And Grip A Solid Rock. “This Rock Is Jesus”, He Is The One.
Be Very Sure: If You Are Not Sure The Lord’s Hands Is Outstretched, Willing To Forgive You Of Your Sins, And Cleanse You From ALL Unrighteousness.
“IN TIMES LIKE THESE”
We are living in a time, an era, that we have never experienced before. A time where the Nation is on alert, because of a Virus called Corona. A Pandemic, a disease that is widespread, that will take only God to completely destroy.
We have had other Pandemics; In 1858 there was Scarlet Fever, where there was never a vaccine discovered to treat it. The only treatment was antibiotics. IT ENDED WITH A MYSTERY, but when it ended, the Scientist or someone contributed it to improved hygiene. I Contribute It To The Hand Of God.
1918 The Spanish Flu epidemic has the Deadliest in History. It was said to have infected an estimated 500 Million people Worldwide, killing an estimated 20 to 50 Million; which was an estimated One third of the planets population, and killing 675, 000 in America.
In 1993 Contaminated water in Milwaukee, over 403,000 infected, and more than 100 died. Other Pandemics in the United States has been, Polio, Yellow Fever, Typhoid Fever, Small Pox etc, But we have never had a Pandemic that has Shut Down The Whole Nation, until This Pandemic called CORONAVIRUS or (COVID 19). It is a New Illness that Scientist said came from China. I don’t know where it came from, but I do know that the Lord allowed to to happen, but even in this Pandemic the Lord is Merciful, Gracious, Kind, Slow To Anger, and Long Suffering, and He doesn’t want any of us to perish. He is giving us a chance to escape the penalties of Hell. We see the Disaster, Hurt, Pain, and Death, and still some of us go on with Business as Usual, and when this Corona Virus is Past (even though I feel this is not the end, but is only the Beginning of sorrow), and we are Living in Perilous times. So when this CORONAVIRUS is PAST, we may be like in Jeremiah 8:20. The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.
We are in an Invisible War. A War that man don’t have the Weapons to Destroy. We can’t see it, Don’t know where it is, or when it is going to attack. It may attack today, tomorrow, next week, summer, or winter. It is an Enemy that the Lord has allowed to sweep through the Land. It may be sitting next to you, standing over you, you don’t know because if we did we could try and get out of the way, or stand guard. We can’t fight this enemy with Natural Weapons, or Missiles, We can’t fight it talking about the President, but the Saints has a Weapon which is not carnal, but mighty through God which can pull down this Stronghold, and that WEAPON is PRAYER. 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and PRAY, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
The President is Baffled, the Scientist, is Baffled, and some of the Saints are Baffled, (DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO), as was in 2 Chronicles in the Bible, when the enemy, a great multitude, came up against Judah (the chosen of God) to battle, or fight. The King Jehoshaphat may have been Baffled as well, but He set himself to SEEK the Lord, and in 2 Chronicles 20:12 He cried out to God, O Our God, wilt thou not judge them? For we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; “NEITHER KNOW WE WHAT TO DO”, but our eyes are upon thee. The Lord said in verse 15 Be not afraid nor this great multitude; (this CONOROVIRUS) (We can be Cautious, but not Afraid) for the battle is not yours but Gods.
We have other Disasters, and Illnesses, which we are confronted with, Tornados, Earthquakes, Floods, Fires, Cancer, Suicide, Addictions, Sexual Trafficking, Mental & Physical Abuse, and the list goes on. People are Hurting, and the Struggle is Real.
Our Faith Is On Trial: Paul said let Us, (Saints of God) LET US COME BOLDLY UNTO THE THRONE (Come With Confidence, Run To God). (Get into the Closet Of Prayer), Where We Can Approach God, Shut out everything, and Commune with Him. There is Peace in the Closet, There is Direction in the Closet, There we will receive Mercy in the Closet, and Find Grace to help us. IN TIMES LIKE THESE.
IN TIMES LIKE THESE, LET US PRAY, and TRUST GOD.
Psalms 20:7 Some trust in chariots, some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord.
Some may be Trusting in The Stimulus Checks, Some in The Unemployment, and Some in The Government ,which is much needed ( I could almost cry thinking about the pain, and suffering of the people, because it could be me). Some also maybe trusting in the Liquor Stores to Drive The Pain Away, but we will remember the name of the Lord.
The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. Proverbs 18:10
“In Times Like These” LET US PRAY
