Encouraging Words in Trying Times – Covid-19
Below is an email I sent to my subscribers about the ongoing pandemic, and I felt it may be helpful to just put it out there as a word of encouragement to someone.
I don’t usually do this and of course, only my subscribers have access to my library of free resources.
So if you’re still on the fence about subscribing, I urge you to reconsider as there are helpful freebies in the library plus more to come.
We’re in trying times as the world goes through the Covid-19 pandemic.
It’s easy to be afraid and lose sight of God as we listen to the news, read the papers and watch other people’s reactions.
But here’s God’s promise for you and me;
God’s Promise in Time of Trial
Isa 43:2 — Isa 43:3 (NKJV)
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.
3 For I am the Lord your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I gave Egypt for your ransom,
Ethiopia and Seba in your place.

This promise of God still holds true today because He gave Jesus Christ for our ransom.
And for us, He has promised to be with us through the waters, rivers, and fire.
So we’re not alone in this crisis.
Here's God's promise for us in trying times; #covid-19 #encouragement #teacupclub #bloggerstribe Share on XThis is the time for us children of God to distinguish ourselves by exhibiting faith and not fear.
Put your trust in God and He will keep you through it all.
We will be safe and sound because He promised in His word;
Psa 91:5 — Psa 91:9 (NKJV)
5 You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you.

So we shall not be afraid of Covid-19 but we shall observe due diligence by making sure we follow the recommendations of health officials to ensure proper and frequent hand washing.
We shall ensure that our environment is germ-free. Here is a useful video from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) about how to protect yourself against Covid-19.
