Today, there is a spirit of fear at work controlling people's behavior. Whether it is fear of covid19, a financial meltdown or the current illegitimate President and the evil things he is doing, people are in fear. That is because we are keeping our eyes on the wrong things and putting our trust in men. We need to keep our faith and trust in God and Jesus Christ. Men will always let us down, even if they are well intentioned. Hear these reminders from our Lord and eternal King, Jesus Christ.
Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like on of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. Matthew 6:25-34
Satan and the world leaders are controlling everyone through fear. The key is to turn our eyes away from the things we see in the natural, and turn them instead upon Jesus Christ and His Kingdom. If we are not careful, the world leaders will have us doing all kind of things our of fear, like wearing masks and standing 6 feet away from others. They will have us taking potentially dangerous vaccines that have not had adequate testing. They will have us sending all of our money to political parties to stop the other political party. Events over the past year have only served to show me how utterly useless the world system is, and how impotent they are to solve anything. They only make matters worse. I trust nothing I see or hear anymore, whether it be the media, polling, the U.S. government, the CDC, World Health Organization, anything. I have tuned them all out and placed all of my trust in God, and feel much better since I did. Jesus promised us that if we seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, all we need will be added to us. I believe that if we will stop listening to men and keep our eyes upon Jesus, He will meet our needs and we have nothing to fear.

Amen.
The first time I went to the new church I found, I almost didn't notice the lack of masks and social distancing. We were all in one accord with that instantly (all being all six of us total but it still mattered).
But it was so nice just to act natural.
There is so much peace in just trusting in Christ and letting certain things go. I get all my news secondhand. My mental health is stellar due to that and simple faith that Jesus holds tomorrow.
Which reminds me of an old song.
Because He lives
I can face tomorrow
Because He lives
All fear is gone
Because I know
Who holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives

z That is right my friend . We have all we need IN OUR LORD . Men will fail us and try and control folks . But the lambs shall HEED THE VOICE of the GREAT SHEPARD . Lambs do not fear death . Their hope is in the LORD . Before long they gonna try and put so much fear into folks , they gonna run to take the solution . And the solution , well lets just say if one takes that , they will have no rest day or night and will be tormented in the presence of the LORD and of the angels . They gonna try and chip us my friend . And no way am i putting anything from satans system into the body . NO way .
