From Fear To Faith - The Lord Delivers Us From Evil (Covid-19)

FROM FEAR TO FAITH - THE LORD DELIVERS THE RIGHTEOUS

William Akehurst, HSWC

The LORD’s Prayer: Matthew 6:9-13

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our (sins) debts, as we forgive (those who sin against us) our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, (and the Coronavirus): For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

In a time when darkness and despair has covered the globe, I am finding Joy, Happiness and Peace in GOD’s Salvation! Almost to the point of laughter…I can’t explain it, except that I have HIS SPIRIT in me and HE is showing me HIS Peace in times of uncertainty. We are living in exciting times! Biblical Times NOW! PRAISE THE LORD, HALLELUJAH!

2 Timothy 1:7 GOD has not given us a spirit of fear, but of love and power and a sound mind!

GOD is Sovereign, HE is in control, HE has this…and we have HIM. And the GLORY of the LORD has risen upon HIS CHILDREN as we are being called into action.

Isaiah 60:1-2 (KJV) 1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. 2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

Our world has changed, but now more than ever, the GOSPEL message of JESUS CHRIST must be made known and ETERNAL HOPE must be shared with the populace. This is the time to BOLDLY proclaim the GOOD NEWS. We carry CHRIST within us, and must share HIM with everyone.

As believers in JESUS, The LORD has equipped you for such a time as this; HE will give you the wisdom you need to perform HIS Calling and Purpose in these times.

Isaiah 6:8 I heard the voice of the LORD saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

Let us come to the LORD together, full of faith and trusting HIM fully.

Hebrews 10:19-25

PRAY - UNDER THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST, WE CAN GO WITH CONFIDENCE BEFORE THE LORD GOD AND PRAY AND ASK FOR HIS PROTECTION AND TO STOP THIS PANDEMIC.

19 Brothers and sisters, because of the blood of Jesus we can now confidently go into the holy place.

BECAUSE JESUS OPENED THE VEIL TOP TO BOTTOM UPON THE CROSS, WE CAN ENTER THE HOLY PLACE

20 Jesus has opened a new and living way for us to go through the curtain. (The curtain is his own body.)

IN THE DAYS OF THE TABERNACLE AND TEMPLE, THE HIGH PRIEST WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO COULD ENTER THAT HOLY PLACE. BUT, JESUS IS MORE SUPERIOR THAN ANY MAN AND INVITES US INTO THAT HOLY PLACE.

21 We have a superior priest in charge of God's house.

WHY AND HOW? BECAUSE OF HIS BLOOD, WE ARE CLEANED AND SET FREE FROM SIN. SO WE MUST COME BEFORE HIM IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH.

22 We have been sprinkled {with his blood} to free us from a guilty conscience, and our bodies have been washed with clean water. So we must continue to come {to him} with a sincere heart and strong faith.

HOLD FAST TO FAITH, BELIEVING, BECAUSE JESUS' PROMISES ARE TRUTH

23 We must continue to hold firmly to our declaration of faith. The one who made the promise is faithful.

WE MUST ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER IN THESE TIMES, AND HELP THEM.

24 We must also consider how to encourage each other to show love and to do good things.

WE MAY BE 'SOCIALLY' DISTANCED, BUT WE SHOULD GATHER IN SPIRIT, BY PHONE, COMPUTER, MEDIA, WHATEVER IT TAKES, AND ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER. WHY, BECAUSE THE LORD JESUS, THE MESSIAH IS COMING.

25 We should not stop gathering together (IN SPIRIT) with other believers, as some of you are doing. Instead, we must continue to encourage each other even more as we see the day of the Lord coming.

WE DO NOT KNOW THE TIME NOR DAY, BUT WE CAN SEE THAT PROPHECY IS BEING FULFILLED AND HIS PROMISES ARE TRUE, AND HE IS COMING. THEREFORE WE MUST STAND FIRM AND BE READY AND DECLARE THAT JESUS IS THE ANSWER FOR LIFE EVERLASTING.

C-Christ

Joshua 1:9 “Have I not commanded you, ‘Be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid, Do not be discouraged: For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.'”

SO LET US TURN OUR FEAR TO FAITH...

BELIEVING THAT THE BLOOD OF CHRIST THAT SET US FREE FROM SIN, ALSO COVERS OUR SICKNESSES AND ALL OUR DISEASES.
