Good evening everyone,today is March 19,2020, We are now stand the test of time following the out-break of covid-19. In this time of anxiety,fear, and distress cause by this pestilence, plaques. But this is nothing, compare to the second coming of Jesus, on that day, there will be a complete chaos, a complete disorder, and confusion. Its gonna be a very very terrible moment. But"We,- the believers of Jesus Christ, will be rapture before the the Great tribulation will occur. We will be snatched ( sagpangin bigla) away from this earth into the air,and we will be united with God for Eternal life in heaven. For those non-believers, will experience the great tribulation, and definitely,they will terribly suffer the hardest times that they could imagine. In those days, walang mabili, salang makain, walang hospital,gamot,gasoline, electricity, unless- mag patatak ng 666( nos.of satan) maari eto ay isang klase ng micro chips na I implant sa kamay, noo,braso yun ang nag sisilbing sensor, at gagamit sila ng reader kung may micro chip na nakatanim sa parte ng katawan. Bago mag karoon ng access sa bilihan, e scan ka muna, na parang grocery item. Maski bayong bayong ang perang dala dala mo, kung wala kang tatak na 666, hindi ka makakakuha,o makakabili. Mahirap mapag iwanan sa lupa. In regards to this present situation,( covid-19) It all comes to your faith in Jesus, How strong is your faith in Jesus; Without faith is impossible to please God, ( Hebrews 11: v 12) And in John 15: v 7( please read your bible) = Remain( abide) = keep your faith " ANCHORED" ( naka angkla) only in Christ. And Remain( abide) in his words ,your faith is also "ANCHORED"( naka angkla) to his promises. But-- "Do not doubt "( may alin langan) James 1: v 6-7( please read your bible)= meaning, he who "veers" ( napadako) from one course to another, "ONLY"- reveals his own stability ( katatagan)and lack of sense of being under divine control.useless lang, make your faith a criteria ( pamantayan) of all things. Now, The question is: Does God sometimes test our faith,by letting hard times to happen to us? ( like this covid-19) Does He already know , whether or not our faith is "GENUINE"? ( tunay ba?) Sometimes, God does test our faith, just as He tested the faith of the Israelites,by allowing to go through hard times in the wilderness ( 40 yrs.silang paikot ikot) in order to know what was in your mind.( Deuteronomy 8: v 2) If our Faith is weak....( mahina) it may be obvious when life is going smoothly,and we aren't challenged ( pag subok) in a way. But..... when hard times come, a " WEAK FAITH" will be revealed lilitaw for what it really is; Shallow, and "unable" to help us through life difficulties, it maybe anything, unexpected illness like this covid- 19, lost of our job, etc. But when hard times happen the true nature if our faith will be revealed. But God doesn't test us because, He doesn't know how strong we are, "NO". Instead.... "HE TEST US", because= "We don't know how strong we are", and we will "ONLY" realize when time of testing come, In Psalms 139: v 23 = it says there; Search me O God and know my heart; Test me and know my anxious thoughts. None of us likes to go through hard times, But God can use them to show our weaknesses ( kahinaan) And when that happen, we need to ask God to help our faith grow (lumago) , Testing should make us spiritually stronger - and it will , as we turn it over to God. The bible says in James 1: v 2 -4 ( read your bible) = consider it pure joy , my Brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials .... so that, you maybe mature and complete. If it is a " Genuine Faith" - testing serves to develop its " Persistence ", we must not grow discouraged regarding the test or trials we are going through ,the goal in view= is that, "Believers" may be mature and complete. REMEMBER; God hear these prayers of faith, whether- they are silent, quite, or loud, the practice of calling to the Lord, which is a form of praying is definitely "AUDIBLE" to God( maririnig niya) Isaiah 65: v 24= Before they call, I will answer,while they are speaking ; I will hear, = na tugunan na ng Diyos ang ating panalangin, habang tayoy nag sasalita pa lang. This scripture proclaims the truth , that Christ will be the one who will " solve " all problems, answere all questions, meet all needs , and make all wrongs right The answere will not e delayed ( atrasado) Hindered, ( may sagabal) or Denied( tanggihan). This time of anxiety, fear, and distress, we will pray people everywhere will be comforted by the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, In John 14: v 27( please read your bible) = it's a sanctifying peace , The God of Peace, sanctifying His chosen people . There is a vast difference in peace with God, As Jesus speaks here; " Not as the world gives" = meaning, the peace of this world is but surface, pang labas lang, Jesus continued; "I give unto you"= meaning, Jesus given is in the heart, the "Peace Of God" = Heals the troubled heart, and takes away fear, Lastly: We the Believers, are covered with the Blood of Jesus, Exodos 12: v 13.
