Swine Flu?? apply Psalm 91.

So there is a new outbreak, what’s new. Sometimes I just lay back and laugh, swine flu, imagine we’ve had Mad Cow, Bird Flu and now this. Funny or not, this has all been predicted before. Yes it has in the book of Revelations from the Bible. Yes the Bible lah, in Rev 6:8 it says,

I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.

The word beasts here in the original Greek, refers to the diminutive form of beasts. Which basically means tiny, small or perhaps even microscopic. Such are the things we face today with this swine flu and a few years ago with SARS. So should we be worried, I guess some worry is in order unless you are true believer and then there is no need to worry.

Cause you will have heard of Psalm 91.

¹ He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
         Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
² I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
         My God, in Him I will trust.”
³ Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
⁴ He shall cover you with His feathers,
         And under His wings you shall take refuge;
         His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
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.

Pay close attention to verse 3 it says,

Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.

It is surely not maybe but definitely He will deliver, meaning save you from the snare (trap) of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence, which means destructive plagues. Here we have one who will save us and will not allow us to perish and as the chapter goes on we know that He is our refue and he will cover us under his wings and that He has be our comfort. Till the declaration in verse 7:

A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.

Here fall means to be cast down with a violent death, effectively saying that death and destruction maybe all around but it shall not come near you. So folks declare this in your life. The Bible has predicted the worse and it has also given you the fix or the antidote, so step out in faith and declare it on your life! Be not fearful because He is your protection over the plagues.

So my friends, believe and let He who can fight the good fight, fight and we can just rest knowing that our trust in Him is all that is required.

M trusting Him.
