To Chan’s words, we would add that this is a perfect time to examine the validity and depth of the trust we say we have in the Lord. He also tells us that Jesus gave Himself as the sacrifice for our sins and to remove the fear of death that holds the world in bondage. The writer of the book of Hebrews tells us that the world is afraid of death. People are dying in large numbers as the Coronavirus threatens mankind. We understand that tribulation works patience and that the Lord works all things, including the Coronavirus, together for good for those who are called according to His purpose. While others despair, however, we are called to rejoice. Remember, Jesus told His disciples that we will experience trouble in this life. We are reminded in the book of James to rejoice in trials and times of trouble.

The Coronavirus pandemic is a reminder that all believers are called to do the same.

We often talk about missionaries being the hands and feet of Jesus. This is one of our greatest opportunities for reaching out to a lost world and showing them that we haven’t lost our love, joy, and peace.”Īsk the Lord how you can demonstrate His great love for us by helping those who are at risk or in need, in the name of Jesus. “This is the fruit of the Spirit, guys, take advantage of this time. He has clearly taught that dramatic changes such as we are witnessing with the Coronavirus pandemic should be an opportunity for the believers to show the world how believers face trials and difficult circumstances with peace and joy. He did not mean that we should be hoarding, stockpiling, or weaponizing. He warned us to be ready and to be prepared. In the video, Chan reminded regular viewers of his Crazy Love YouTube channel that a day would be coming when believers may not be able to gather with others of like, precious faith.
