Every night I am having bad nightmares. This situation we’re in with covid-19 has been invading my dreams. I am carry on conversations with the Lord in my dream, asking many questions, especially how long is this going to last? Crying in my sleep and waking up with real tears, rolling down my face. God said, we are like the stubborn Israelites delivered from slavery in Egypt who murmured and complained in the wilderness who had to remain there forty years. Disobedient, murmuring and complain is going to be once again our down fall keeping us in the wilderness of covid-19.

How can we say we believe and trust in the Lord, when we can’t even feel or hear him within our soul communicating to us. We have read the scriptures gone to church and believe in the power of the Holy Spirit. John 14:16-17 Jesus said, “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate ( comforter)to help you and be with you forever, the spirit of truth. Then how is it as Christian we can’t understand the moving of the Lord in our lives with this covid-19. We quote and call our Lord, “Jehovah Jireh,” the Lord will provide, “Jehovah Rapha” the Lord who heals, and “Jehovah Shammah”  the Lord is there. Where’s the faith in what we say and do? Or is it just for show? We are so busy doing church, instead of being the church; reading and interpreting scriptures, getting caught up in reminising about what happened back then, considering it only as the past, but not recognizing in our own actions we are repeating the very same things today the ancestors in the scriptures have done.

How is the Lord moving in our lives due to covid-19? So many things we take for granted in our lives has now been brought to the forefront, starting with our health, mentally and physically, our love ones and our relationships, communities and socializing with and among others sharing this earth together, realizing we are all humans and this viruses is no respector of persons, regardless of faith, ethnicity, or social class. All the hidden factors that we all over look as a society, country, nations is now also coming to the forefront of our lives that we will have  no other choice but to confront and deal with on a global scale, starting with faith and relationship with God, our planet earth and the way we treat and interact with one another.

Yes, people are dying and it’s heart breaking. Death through the resurrection of Jesus no longer has its sting. We can’t look at it as a bad thing, but rather returning home to our Father from where we came. It sad but like Jesus said, “verily, verily I say unto you, unless a grain of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abides alone; but if it die, it brings forth much fruit,” John 12:24.

There’s no mention of devil, because for once after the life death and resurrection of Jesus, what’s going on in the world is just between man and the Lord, no middle evil(devil). The devil is still being mischievous, but not much attention is focused on him, only by those who is giving into to him willingly. “We must resist him.” He doesn’t have power to touch the entire world at the same time as for what is going on in the world today with covid-19. Only God can call for us all to be in the belly of a whale, or stuck in an ark.

God is never changing, so that means He’s still communicating with us we are just to busy to realize it.
