We are to have Faith in the Lord and not fear when trouble comes. In the text, God told Abram to leave his father’s household and go to a land that God would lead him to. In verse 4 Abram obeyed the Lord and left. In verse 7 he goes to the land of Sichem, builds an altar to the Lord and gets more instructions. Then in verse 8 Abram went over to Bethel, built an altar to the Lord and called on the name of the Lord again.
All of a sudden in verse 10, there is a famine in the land. Does Abram build an altar to the Lord and ask for instructions? No. He gets fearful, starts reasoning in himself and runs to Egypt. This is where the trouble starts because instead of having Faith, Abram had fear. First he asked his wife Sarai to say she is his sister instead of his wife so the Egyptians won’t kill Abram for her. Then Pharaoh takes Sarai and she almost gets sexually had by him as his new wife. God sends a plague on the Egyptians that makes them all sick AND to let them know that Sarai is already a married woman. Then Pharaoh has Abram leave Egypt quickly with his wife. All this trouble started because of the fear Abram had when the famine came. All this trouble could have been greatly avoided if Abram had kept the Faith, dropped to his knees and asked God what he should do.
Today, now in March 2020, we have a plague, a pestilence in our land. We need to keep the Faith, have no fear, drop to our knees and ask God what we should do. We Christians, all know that we are Special because we are God’s children through the blood of Jesus Christ. We know God is obligated to take care of us. Period! Yes, He loves us his children and wants to take care of us anyway but because He is our Father, He is obligated to take care of us. Period! So walk in Faith with the Lord God Almighty. Walk in Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Have no fear because God is in Control!!
Ephesians 5:11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
But false prophets hate having their fruits of darkness exposed this is why prophet 7744 is stepping up his attacks
False prophet Richard, the Pinocchio prophetic destroys the faith of some Christians who may have contracted the coronavirus. Prophetic 7744 falsely claims only non-Christians will get the coronavirus
False prophet Richard the Pinocchio prophet beliefs Isa 9:6 is wrong to call Jesus “Everlasting Father”. So whenever he quotes Isa 9:6, he includes all other names but leaves Everlasting Father out!! Richard even goes so far as to insist calling Jesus “Everlasting Father” is wrong. Thus, Richard shamelessly corrects God.
False teacher Richard the Pinocchio prophet doesn’t believe in the Trinity and he doesn’t believe the Holy Spirit is God a member of the Trinity
Richard believes the evolution lie that death and dying was already taking place on earth before Adam and Eve sinned. This is contrary to God’s word
Richard thinks women are not supposed to teach men anything or anywhere at any time even on a forum like this.
Richard teaches Adam was told to kill and eat animals before Adam sinned. Adam was NEVER told any such thing
Richard believes in and sinfully uses numerological schemes to predict future events even though this demonic scheme has failed every time he uses it but like other false prophets Richard keeps using it anyway
Richard says he doesn’t believe in evolution but ignorantly believes some of the teachings of evolution especially carbon 14 >>interpretations<< that generate exaggerated ages to the earth’s materials. Secular humanists fabricate exaggerated ages by manipulating and falsifying by canon 14 readings by craft. They “interpret” these results to “prove” the theory of their prized “molecules to man evolution” in order to “disprove” the Bible. Sadly, Richard, gullibly believes the fabricated interpretations of carbon 14 even though he denies believe in evolution.
Richard doesn’t believe that “day one”, in Genesis 1, (the beginning of creation week) is really day one, he prefers to believe evolution’s lie that Neanderthal’s were “creatures” that lived and died before Adam was created!!
Richard reinterprets other portions of scripture and hold other unbiblical notions he can’t defend
This forum needs to be reminded of Richards many heretical teachings and false prophesies
Satan's followers like Littlest David has just demonstrated how you can change the very clear teaching of God's Word.*
I Corinthians 11:14-16: Does not the very nature of things if a **MAN HAS LONG HAIR** it is a **DISGRACE TO HIM...If anyone wants to be contentious about this {Like Littlest David} we have no other practice--nor do the churches of God!!
Apparently littlest David does not believe the above Divine Scripture is inspired by God since he proudly displays his sinful **LONG HAIR** on his picture and in another picture where he had **LOMG HAIR** on his beard. Whenever Littlest David disagrees with God's Word he claims it is out of context!! Littlest David also loves to *LIE** about other people's beliefs.
It is true that some unbelievers could infect other non-believers in your church meetings. but none of the believers will be infected. It is also possible that if we are really teaching the true Gospel in your churches that God would not allow this to happen.
During the Great Tribulation 666 will control all the nations of the world and **ALL THE CHURCHES WILL BE CLOSED** Satan has deceived all the nations to close all the churches in the world **ALREADY**. So the stage has been set for the beginning of the Great Tribulation!!! At the beginning of the Great Tribulation there will be a great **FALLING AWAY** of those who profess to be Christians in the churches but are afraid to preach the Gospel. !!
Matthew 24:9-13: Jesus says, "Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of Me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hurt each other, and many false prophets will appear {Like Quiznos and LiittlestDavid} and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of **MOST** will grow cold, but he stands firm to the end will be saved!!"
Acts 5:27-33,41,42: The apostles were brought in and made to appear before the Sanhedrin to be questioned by the high priest. "We gave you strict orders not to teach in His Name," he said, "Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man's blood." Peter and the other apostles replied, "We must obey God rather than human beings! The God of our ancestors raised Jesus from the dead--whom you killed by hanging him on a cross. God exalted him to His own right hand as Prince and Savior that He might bring Israel to repentance and forgive their sins. We are witnesses of these things and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him. When they heard this, they were furious and wanted to put them to death! {But Gamaliel convinced them not to} The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing because they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name. **DAY AFTER DAY**, in the temple courts and from house to house, they **NEVER STOPPED** teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Messiah!
Hebrews 10:23-25: Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another--and all the more as you see that last Day approaching!!
Revelation 17:14: They will make war against the **LAMB** but the **LAMB** will overcome them because He is **LORD** of lords and **KING** of kings and with Him will be His **CALLED** **CHOSEN** and **FAITHFUL** followers!! {Riding on heavenly white horses. This will happen right after the Marriage Feast of the Lamb as per Revelation 19:7-21!}
Richard since you believe only non-believers contract the coronavirus then you must be visiting with those who have the coronavirus and leading them to Jesus. Tell us how that is going.

**IS THE AMAZING DREADED CORONAVIRUS ONE OF THE THINGS MENTIONED IN GOD'S WORD THAT WILL TAKE PLACE JUST BEFORE THE GREAT TRIBULATION**??
It is obvious that this worldwide plague is a message **FROM GOD**!! There are some like Littlest David and TeddHugger who strongly imply that Satan started this Coronavirus and God couldn't stop it, or it was a complete accident and God couldn't stop it???
They would agree with the government that all the churches should be closed and you should only witness to people when they are over 6 feet away while you are both wearing **MASKS**???
The Olivet prophecies of Jesus are found in Matthew 24 and 25, Mark 13 and Luke 21. Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21 tells us what will take place just before the Great Tribulation, what will take place during the 1260-day Great Tribulation and the second Coming of Jesus on the Last Day of the Great Tribulation. And then Matthew 25:31-46 tells about the judgment of the saved and lost just after the 2nd Coming of Jesus. Matthew 24:4-8, Mark 13:5-8: and Luke 21:10,11 tells what will take place just before the Great tribulation, and in Luke 21:11 Jesus prophesied, "There will be great earthquakes, **FAMINES** and **PESTILENCES** in various places!"
Dictionary definition of **PESTILENCE**: A **CONTAGIOUS OR INFECTIOUS EPIDEMIC DISEASE** that is virulent and **DEVASTATING**!!!
****WHICH IS A PERFECT DEFINTION OF THE ****CORONAVIRUS**An epidemic which could potentially turn into a horrifying global pandemic that kills millions of people!
However none of the plagues related to the End Times will hurt any of God's saints as shown by Revelation 9:4,20,21; 11:5; 16:2,5,6,7,9,11,21. God's wrath is mentioned 11 times in Revelation and every time God's wrath only hurt the unsaved.
Revelation 16:2,8,9" The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land, and ugly festering sores broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and worshiped his image.... The 4th angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was allowed to scorch people with fire. They were seared by the intense heat and the cursed the name of God, who **HAD CONTROL** over these plagues.
Psalm 91:2-4: I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust. Surely He will save you from the fowler's snare and from the deadly **PESTILENCE**. He will cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness will be your shield and rampart!!"
Exodus 12:13 The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. **NO DESTRUCTIVE PLAGUE WILL TOUCH YOU** when I strike Egypt!
Revelation 9:3,4: And out of the smoke locusts came down on the earth and were given power like the scorpions of the earth. They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree but only those people who did not have the **SEAL OF GOD**!
Since the Coronavirus will not hurt any born from believers, Bible based churches should never avoid being gathered together. Unfortunatelty about 90 percent of the churches in USA only have services **ONLINE** at their **WEBSITES**. Many like LittlestDavid and TeddyHugger with little faith think this should be 100 percent and that all Christians should be 6 feet away and wear **MASKS**when witnessing to the unsaved???
Hebrews 10:24,25: Let us consider how we may spur one another on to love and good deeds, not giving up **MEETING TOGETHER**as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another--and **ALL THE MORE**as you see the Last Day approaching!
Romans 8:28,35,36: We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose... For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons neither the present nor the future nor ant powers neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord!
CORONAVIRUS and **FAMINE** will cause many catastrophies and chaos throughout the world which will also cause many wars especially in the Middle East.
The world will be looking for a Savior and 666 and his False Prophet will fulfill the world's needs with many miracles.
Another amazing reason that the Great tribulation may be very close is that **POPE FRANCIS COMPLETELY QUALIFIES TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF **666*
Well there you go David....You ask Richard the false prophet and teacher a simple question and all you get is the same old copy and paste! Richard should be happy to tell you the results of going into sick infected area's, places in Florida and "leading these infected unbelievers" to Christ! But nooooo he is hiding at home and scared of getting the virus! Old faithless Richard does not practice what he teaches!
SATANIC MADE UP **LIE** BY TEDDYHUGGER WHO BELIEVES IN THE **FLAT EARTH FAIRY TALE** AND THE SINLESS PERFECTION FAIRY TALE ":
Richard is hiding at home and scared of getting the virus! Old faithless Richard does not practice what he teaches! "
All the churches in my home town have closed their churches . While I have continued in my two ministries: I go to the flea markets and Walmarts in my area with my 2 evangelistic parrots who are extremely friendly to children, who love to pet them and have them jump from their wrists to their shoulders and the on top of their heads for pictures. Then I give them beautiful 4X6 inch pictures of parrots in the wild with God's Word on the bottom. They also get 2 pieces of tasty candy.
I also have continued my car ministry with an amazing car with 8 Scripture and 100 animal figurines on top of the car. The 2 inch letters are psychedelic and change colors in the sun. If you go to the middle lane of a busy traffic light: 3 cars on the right and 3 cars on the left and the car behind you can read God's Word and then after going about 100 yards you make a U-turn and come to the same busy traffic light going the other way. In this way about 200 people get to read God's Word every hour. About 3 million people have read God's Word on my Jesus cars in the last 20 years.
About 40 percent of the women and 28 percent of the men in the USA read God's Word. So this unique ministry gets God's Word to the 72 percent of the men and 60 percent of the women who do not read God's Word!
Hebrews 10:23-25: Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not **GIVING UP GETTING TOGETHER** as some in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another--and all the more as you see the last Day approaching!
Matthew 10:27: Jesus says, "What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight, what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the house tops!"
Luther and Calvin are two examples of those who, knowing the risks of the plague in their times, still went among the sick to serve them. I found it interesting that a roman emperor wrote how the Christians of his time ministered to the sick and needy of both the saved and the lost. He said they did it so much that it shamed their pagan religion. Julian is the ruler.
I’m glad finally to hear a favorable post about Calvin and Luther for a change. There are so many made up lies about them, even appearing on this forum. Luther once said, (don’t know if this is a tight quote) “if the Lord wants me, he will find me...”. If I’m not mistaken, he said this in reference to the disease. He meant to convey the point, if it is his time to go, he will go but not before.
We need wisdom from God in such cases but certainly it doesn’t mean taking daredevil risks.
But if a one time opportunity to share the transforming gospel of Jesus comes in the form of one sick with the coronavirus then be wise and take the risk.
It would be better to die sharing the good news, then to die avoiding danger
