7 Things God Wants You To Know
During This Virus Attack
When the world is so afraid, we look at them
we don’t have to fear what they fear.
I’ll say that again.
Don’t fear what they fear.
“Al Tirah” in Hebrew.
Fear not.
The very first person that said this word,
very famous words and the most quoted words
of Jesus, the most spoken words of Jesus is
‘fear not’.
The first person that said that was God to
Abraham.
When Abraham was sleeping at night,
God came to him in a vision and God says:
“Al Tirah Avraham, Al Tirah Avraham.”
At that time, he was Abram.
God says, “Don’t be afraid.
I am your magen, your shield and I am your
exceeding great reward Amen.”
That’s the first occurrence of the word
‘fear not’ used by God on a man that was
fearful.
So that blessing of Abraham is also ours.
Amen we have no need to fear, Amen.
We are protected.
There is a verse where Jesus is praying and
He allows us to eavesdrop.
It is the great priestly prayer they call
it, John 17, where He prayed
that “They may know”, all of you, “through My name, those who believe on Me may know that You
have loved them even as.”
You know what is even as?
“Even as, You have loved them even as You
have loved Me.”
Wow.
I mean, Lord, if You love me, just you know,
four five notches under Jesus, I will accept.
But ‘even as’…
He shares His love with all of us, Amen.
You are loved so
don’t just claim Psalm 91.
Do it, spend time in your car, take time with
the Lord, in the morning, spend the time with
the Lord, where you refresh yourself with
all these truths, and say, “Lord thank You
for loving me and my family” because you
see, friends, it is the perfect love that
cast out fear.
Perfect love is not your love for Him, it
is His love for you.
That’s where you find perfect love.
When you realise how much He loves you, how
He loves you perfectly.
It will cast out every fear.
You will look for fear and you will find fear
no more.
Now during this time, people, please understand,
it is not you clinging on to protection, you
clinging on…realise that God loves you,
and show them 2 Thessalonians 3:3 real quick,
“But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish
you, and keep you from evil.”
So people will say, “Are you sure you’re
faithful enough to qualify for Psalm 91’s
protection?”
“Are you sure you’re faithful enough”
has the question backwards.
The question is not my faithfulness that keeps
me from evil.
The Lord is faithful.
So, His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
Some translations say, it can be translated
that way because the word ‘emet’, can
also be ‘faithfulness’, His faithfulness
is your shield.
It is the child being held by the mother.
Not the child holding on to the mother – that’s
never really safe.
The mother holds the child is safe.
No, you just say, “Father, thank You.
You are faithful.”
Right, put the anointing oil.
Amen.
“Thank You, Father, as I go out today, my
family and I, no evil will befall us, and
no COVID-19 virus will come near our dwelling.”
Amen.
When a word appears in the beginning, usually
in the Hebrew, it’s an emphasis on that
word, in the entire verse.
Yashav, yoshev, which is in Hebrew, the way
you said it.
Yoshev is the word ‘sit’.
Yoshev beseter…in the secret place…elyown,
the most high…betzel, tzel is shadow…Shadday
is the Almighty…yitluwnan, luwnan is actually
‘spend the night’…night is a season
where, like what the world is going through
right now…it will pass.
Amen.
It will pass.
It depends on how long, but it’s the night
season.
And the Bible says, “He who sits in the
secret place of the Most High shall abide
under the shadow.”
Shall spend the night, you will spend this
entire season under the shadow of the Almighty.
You know there are two types of conquering this thing.
One thing, alright, God’s way is that you
walk in divine protection and not be afraid.
If God tells you to go somewhere, amen.
Except for those places the advisory tell you not to go.
Just like the angel told the father
Joseph at that time alright to bring the boy
to Egypt – that is the right time to be
led by the Spirit but don’t be motivated by fear.
What’s consuming the world right now is fear.
People are making decisions out of fear.
People are so afraid, Amen.
Listen.
Even if you get it, you won’t die, in Jesus’
name.
Believe God. Amen. Amen.
Believe God not to get it but if you do get
it, believe God for complete healing and restoration.
The world is talking so much about…
you know, Corona, Corona, Corona.
It’s like a song, it’s like a song, it’s
like a chant, it’s like everybody—
switch on the TV and everywhere you know it’s like…
Because it’s a social media world.
But let’s not talk about Corona.
Let’s talk about Jesus.
The King of kings is He,
The Lord of lords, supreme,
through all eternity.
The Great, I Am, the Way, the Truth, the Life,
the Door.
Let’s talk about Jesus more and more!
Let’s talk about Jesus, the King of kings
is He,
The Lord of lords, supreme,
throughout eternity.
The Great, I Am, the Way, the Truth, the Life, the Door
Let’s talk about Jesus more and more!
Amen and once a while when you’re driving
back home or with your family, your little
children and you start hearing all these news
and all that.
Sometimes you just have to listen because
it’s your job whatever but just hear the
headlines and don’t keep on listening, and
don’t keep on traveling on your social media
and look at every little thing, Amen?
There’s a lot of fake news out there and
if you do have to listen.
Always end up with: (sings)
Let’s talk about Jesus;
The King of kings is He.
And just talk about Jesus to your family.
The world is now literally on its knees based
on something they can’t see.
And I’m here to tell you that this virus
will not reign.
It seems like it’s reigning, it’s seems
like it is because it’s on the lips of everyone,
people are talking about it but let me tell
you this.
The Bible says you are to reign in life and
the way you reign in life is Romans 5:17,
“If death reigned by one…”
Alright, if this sickness from this COVID-19
reigns by one, Amen if death reigned by one,
“…much more they which receives abundance
of grace.”
We cannot preach too much on grace.
We need the abundance of grace, much more
they which receive, ‘they, they they’
they which receive abundance of grace, they
in New Creation Church, come on, who believe
in the abundance of grace, you don’t believe
in grace, it’s up to you, Amen.
But we are those
who believe and receive abundance of grace.
Much more they which receive abundance of
grace and the gift of righteousness.
Righteousness, right standing with God.
In the place where Christ stood because He
is our standing, that righteousness is now
a gift.
When you are righteous in God’s eyes, all
the blessings of the righteous accrue to you.
They fall on you.
Amen, you are the righteousness of God in
Christ and this righteousness is a gift.
It’s a gift and how do you receive a gift?
You just say thank you.
Do you have to earn the gift?
No.
Do you have to pay for the gift?
No.
No someone else paid for the gift.
And the Bible says that those who receive
abundance of grace and the gift, the gift
not the reward because of something you do.
It’s not the reward of righteousness.
It’s the gift of righteousness.
What would happen to them?
Those who receive the abundance of grace and
the gift of righteousness?
They will reign in life.
They will reign in life not this COVID-19
virus, they will reign in life.
