A Message from Our Pastor - Corona Virus Guidelines Update
Posted on Thu, Mar 19, 2020
Greetings St. James
During the last couple of weeks, things have changed vastly around the world even in our country, and yes it has struck close to home as well as at home. Schools, businesses, restaurants, jobs shut down, empty stores shelves of certain items, Pandemic has caused many to react in terror for self-protection and their families. The Corona Virus is a serious matter and we have heard much information concerning this issue. Let us follow the guidelines set forth by the CDC for safe measures. Preventing the spread of this disease.
In the face of these trying times we are asked to remain encouraged because Psa 27:1, “The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?
Psa 27:2 When the wicked came against me To eat up my flesh,
My enemies and foes, They stumbled and fell.” Think about that.
2Ti 1:7, For God, has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
It is assuring to know that we have a God who cares and has the world in His hand. God is still in control in spite what we endure or the condition of this world. His word is still true Psa 27:5
For in the time of trouble
He shall hide me in His pavilion;
In the secret place of His tabernacle
He shall hide me;
He shall set me high upon a rock.
His word reminds us in Isa 54:17, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper…” We have confidence in the power of God’s word, He will never leave us nor forsake us.
Those of us who are prayerful should do as Jesus did. Jesus did not speak about diseases. He spoke to the disease and they were all healed. We speak to this corona virus in the name of Jesus to dry up at the root and stop recreating itself. We apply the blood of Jesus at the root to end your suffering on humanity. Amen.
Be safe and protect yourselves at all cost. Never stop praying.
