COVID-19 Christian Battle Plan
The COVID-19 virus has caused a lot of distress and fear in the world and among many Christians.
So how are we to respond as Christians?
Here are a few things to consider.
The Bible
Use your free time at home to get closer to God by reading His word.
The Bible is God’s written words that reveal to us His nature and His eternal plan for our salvation. We can also learn more about the effects of sin in the world and our need for a Savior.
The Government
The government is ordained by God.
Romans 13:1 (NIV)
“Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.”
Therefore, we are required to respect the measures, laws, and directives that have been given by them.
Pray especially for wisdom for the leaders to make the right decisions to control the spread of the virus and to manage the economy during these stressful times.
Medical teams
Trust in the medical teams that God has provided.
Pray for protection, endurance, strength, and wisdom for those in the front line fighting the virus.
Keep Faith not Fear
God has promised to protect you, and He will do just that.
Don’t give in to the plans of the enemy.
At the same time, we have to be wise about our choices. We can still have Faith and wash our hands or even sit at home. God does not want us to test Him – He will protect us, and sometimes that protection means giving you the wisdom to do the simplest of things like following basic human hygiene.
Identify Idols in your life
With a lot of sport and music events being shut down, many people have felt an emptiness in their lives. Take time to reflect what matters to you the most and break any idols that may have replaced God.
Jesus
Exalt the name of Jesus higher than COVID-19 and every other thing we face.
Victory comes when we exalt the name of Jesus.
Exalt the name of Jesus higher than COVID-19.
