God is your supplier. Part 3 and this includes the end of Coronavirus

"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."                                                                                         Psalm 91:1-2.  NKJV

The term, 'Most High', here is Shaddai - Elyon and Almighty is Elohim - The Sublime God. In verse 9 of this Psalm, we see the term the LORD which is Jehovah or Yahweh which is the personal name of God. Again, like yesterday's study in Philippians 2:8-11, we see the Name above all names, our refuge and our King. The Living Bible actually states this: 'For Jehovah is my refuge! I choose the God above all gods to shelter me.' Psalm 91:9 Living Bible.
Did you see that? The God above all gods, Jehovah, Yahweh, Most High, Almighty is there for us to choose Him to take care of us. But we must choose Him!

When things all around us are bleak, when they're crowding us in with stressful areas, sickness, troubles and all other nasty things, God can be relied on to take us to a place of safety - under the shadow of the Most High (v1)

At this time, the world has many fears, and possibly the most prevalent one, is Covid 19. This plague, because that is what it is, has killed very many people throughout our world and people are living in fear that there may be another wave which will attack us again. Let us stop right there for a moment! Check out these verses from this Psalm:

'Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the perilous pestilence' v3
Again in v 9-10:
'Because you have made the LORD, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place, (10) No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling.'

This could'nt be any more clearer, there's a pestilence around the world. It's a plague by the name of Coronavirus or Covid 19; but it is a name and subject to the Name above all names - Jesus Christ of Nazareth - God Himself, our refuge and place of safety.

We should be wise about this plague though, taking all the precautions that are directed by the various governments. However, we are not to be fearful. It is defeated! This plague is in the grave, defeated by the Name above all names.

Who's going to shout Amen first here? Your supplier has even supplied healing by His stripes and when you read Psalm 91, you will see He was prepared for it, many years ago.
Relax and praise God.
