There is everything across the internet about the true reason behind the current restrictions based on COVID-19, ranging from the reality of the disease to the idea that it's a complete hoax, with 5G somewhere in between. When it boils down to it, it doesn't matter what it is. Why waste time with such speculations and claims that cannot be proved?

The fact is that we can't change the situation either way, except by believing for God to move in all of it. But what we can do is not so much spoken about, but thankfully by some.

Unite together in faith and believe for the highest of powers to carry us through this. God knows what the reality is, and has the answer. Have a heart of repentance and spread the need for a reliance to God to everyone.

We will make it through this. Encourage each other to believe and move forward. Be there to assist one another. Doubt nothing. Shine light into the darkness. Drive demons away with glory. Don't take the carnal approach that is useless speculation, and only creates doubt and fear. Speak His Word of life!!

Focus on the technicalities that are natural issues is like resorting to the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil.

Amen, Amen and Amen!

This didn’t creep up behind God’s back. We can either come out of this with more faith or become more carnal. It is our choice.

I choose Faith!

Grow your own food, source your own water, get to know your neighbors, and make yourself available to help them out.

Avoid government bussing, quarantine camps, and "free medical care" handed out by government employees and especially military.

Live by the Word, not by the advice from the boob tube regardless of what "experts" are on screen.

If problems are hard? Be harder than the problem.

Focus on the technicalities of how to get needed things done rather than vague generalities that sound good but don't put food on the table.

The cowardly and the irrational call it bad news. The practical call it assessing the situation.

3 kinds of people: Those who understand the times and improve their position, those who are (usually willingly) clueless and helpless, and those looking to profit off you. Be the first, help the second as you are able, and treat the third as they are - a danger.

Proverbs 24:3-7 KJV
Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established: [4] And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches. [5] A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength. [6] For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety. [7] Wisdom is too high for a fool: he openeth not his mouth in the gate.

Proverbs 24:10-12 KJV
If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. [11] If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; [12] If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it ? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it ? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?

Proverbs 22:3 KJV
A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Agreed with you Bro. Blume and Bro. Esaias too.

Let's have faith that looks past the unknown, and believes in spite of what is happening around us. Let's prepare as best we can.

But ultimately remember... as PO said so well, God knows exactly what's happening, and the answer is already known to Him.

I choose to look up, have faith, and see what God can do in the midst of this really difficult season we are in.
