Bad news bombarding the airwaves. Social media. Advertising. Covid. Flu. People dying. Arguments over what’s right or wrong. Wars and rumors of war. Economic concerns. Fear grips every level of society.
Have you ever just wanted to scream, “ENOUGH”?
Life can be overwhelming. But God. . .
He says, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30 NASB
The victory is in Jesus!!
These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.”
John 16:33 NASB
So what can we do to hush the noise of the world and trust God in the mayhem? Go to prayer:
But you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.
Matthew 6:6 NASB
AND
“Cease striving (Be still) and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
Psalms 46:10 NASB

This flu, covid, pandemic, is something I don’t talk about. It does make a difference what you speak and worry about.

Yes, it does make a difference what you speak and worry about, thus the reason and necessity to go before God, “casting all your anxiety (cares) on Him, because He cares for you.”
1 Peter 5:7 NASB
So I don’t worry or allow the things in this world, including sickness, to overwhelm me but only because I take my woes, worries, concerns, etc. of this world before Almighty God and in His power I overcome. God is my Rock and my fortress and my deliverer.
2 Samuel 22:2
