First it is note worthy to point out, that there is nothing new under the sun. As these are similitudes to some of the laid out experiences in the Bible
In studying the plaques in Egypt , we trace the causes to.
Obstinacy
Resisting the word
Exploitation of Gods people
Self interest
Effect / Plague of frogs, fleas, rats, hail and locust
Then the death of the First born.
The correlation is that any disposition to build a nation without God, scatters such as seen with the tower of Babel. Clearly evoking Gods aversion and anger . Methodology to combat this virus so far has, principally been scientific. This is in itself a flaw,, we need to urgently seek God and find out the point where the nation involved have incured Gods wrath and where we all have gone wrong. Asa,as a King had a diseased foot and rather than call on God, looked to the physicians of his day. God was angry and he died. Knowledge enormous have resulted in many forgetting that the spirit world rules the Physical.
Again as Israel mummured we see Mariam contacted Leprosy and God ensured this, as she spoke against Moses
Exodus 16
The people lusted for flesh, which means lust can also incur Gods anger and many died even with the food in their mouth as,God saw their greed. Also Clearly God had instructed us not to eat food with its blood. The spirit of glutony has overtaken some of the Asian countries, making them to consume the forbidden. ,Till today i wonder why people want the steak rare, with blood in it. This is from Westernized Countries that brought us the word. Gods word is sovreign and supreme and civilisation can not undermine the efficacy.
The plague also came when Achan took the accursed thing . There are innumerable abominations every where and God our maker is angry with mankind. Someone once said with the attrocities of these times, God must apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah. Horrible replications of Sodom and Gomorrah is practised at epidemic proportions. Divinity clearly has had enough.
We must not forget in Numbers 21 When the people spoke against God and they died in their thousands. A brazen serpent had to be made in the similitude of the Modern day cross to curtail snd stop the plaque.
I had a revelation that all our fired up prayers is coming through.
The heat wave spiritually and physically is working. Definitely we are not the most righteous but our efforts to serve God has not been futile .China was the yard stick of measuring human attributes of efficiency culminating into sucess without religion when compared to our over zealous Christianity or non accomplished mode was rather challenging and many were beginning to revise and regress.
This does not however mean we must throw in the towel and not improve and be effective. No doubt though evidently, Except the Lord build, we now know the labouring is insufficient. This is no time to judge but to intercede and pray for the nations. Using,
Psalm 91
God is our refuge, he will deliver and cover us in pur nations. Then no evil shall befall us in JESUS name. We have Angels take charge and even in dangerous situations there will be no harm. No more cutting short of lives, longetivity is pur portion in JESUS Mighty name.
Lastly and most importantly is the efficacy of the blood shed on Calvary for everyone of us. We do not to carve out an image anymore. Jesus had confronted all and he declared the finished work. So lets begin to speak, evoke and call up the bloood of Jesus on the four corners of the earth . The blood of Jesus shed for us will never loose its power !!!
