Last night, as I was getting ready to go to bed, the Holy Spirit spoke to read a piece of Scripture. The verse He gave to me sounded familiar, but I couldn’t quite remember, so I eagerly picked up my Bible and flicked to the verse:
“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”
Isaiah 41:10
I just sat on my bed, closed my eyes, and thanked God
Yesterday, New Zealand was told that within 48 hours, it would be in full lockdown, and although, when told not panic, repeatedly, people did
The exciting thing for me over the last week or so is the number of questions I am being asked about God. People are looking for answers. Although, being honest, I am concerned, because Christians are becoming just as scared as the rest of the world, and again this saddens me because it means that Jesus’ voice, hands and feet, are disappearing within this world as we speak, as fear grips their bodies
People want answers, and I’m not just talking about the virus. But, if Christian’s won’t tell of the One who can save our souls, then the enemy will rise
I had a conversation yesterday with someone listening to a clairvoyant, because what this clairvoyant is saying about the world’s circumstances, made perfect sense to people
Friends, the time is now for Christians to rise. To speak without fear. To not be discouraged with doubt, because God is strengthening His warriors, and no matter what comes our way, just like Aaron held up the staff for Moses when the Israelites faced a battle – God gave me an image that He is the One who is holding us up with His Victorious Right hand
So I encourage you, at every opportunity, tell people about Jesus, show God’s love to others, pray with one another, forgive people quickly, trust in God to help us through these times, but most of all remember that we have nothing to fear, because God has given us a Spirit of love, power, and sound mind
