... Because God spared not His own Son from the trials and sorrows of earth, God will not spare us similar experiences. After all, we are one in Christ. Yet being full of compassion and plenteous in mercy, God will see to it that the ill He does permit is for His glory and our present and eternal good. Did He not allow His children to be cast into the fiery furnace, thrown into the lion’s den, and driven out from their homes to wander in sheepskins and goatskins? Yet God sanctified unto them these grievous trials and turned the curse into blessing. If He scourges with one hand, He supports with the other, and thus He is our consolation. (See Jeremiah 31:13.)
@Cherishingsparrows2020 Thanks for your message. Unfortunately few are understanding my decisions, my way of dealing with the pandemic. I also lost my parents' esteem. I am living in a big distress but I know that God is with me. I am happy to have discovered Ding Dash and I am happy to be able to trust in the prayers of all my Ding Dash contacts. We often feel alone. But we know that God is with us. Thanks again. God bless you and bless all my brothers in Christ. Here in Italy a new pandemic is starting. The fourth wave. It seems to never end. We are exhausted. God will provide and help us. With tears in my eyes, I pray that God will bless you in all circumstances.
@Kruselady Thank you. God bless you.
Like John on the isle of Patmos, some saints are finding themselves in places of restriction in this hour, and are struggling with all the emotional trappings that attend imprisonment and confinement.
Feelings such as hopelessness, uselessness, despair, abandonment, rejection, reproach, lack of understanding, loneliness, vulnerability, etc.
With such a host of emotions assaulting the prisoner’s equilibrium, it’s difficult to maintain an unswerving confidence in the simple secret of this chapter:
When you’re in confinement, God is closer to you than you realize.
The Lord assures the afflicted soul, “‘I will be with him in trouble’” (Psalm 91:15).
When you’ve been troubled by circumstances that twist and press your soul, be assured that your Lord is closer to you than ever!

#srilanka needs your prayers!
The food crisis is getting worse.
Please remember our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Also the poor, orphans and widows.
@MaryMamuzich Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless, protect and heal this sister in Jesus name. Amen.
Any hackers out there have the Covid App done?! I was advised today that my 16 year old who is in a Musical Theatre course at high school can participate in the year end production without being vaccinated BUT … any students 17 or older CANNOT participate in the production due to the venue rules. (But they can stay in the class and get their years worth of credits 🙄). AND parents who are not vaccinated will not be allowed to attend any of the productions. Also, the production is not allowed to be videoed to watch. 😡
I know this is our reality and there are greater issues in the world- but this is an unjust attack on families, students and youth.
When you’re desperate for God, you become dependent upon the daily sustaining power of His word. Your source of survival is your daily manna— feeding on the word of God. We know the manna of the wilderness was good for only one day; if kept over into the next day, it would rot (Exodus 16:12-31). It’s still true that yesterday’s feeding in the word will never sustain us for today. One of the primary functions of the secret place is to be fed afresh each day in His word. (B. Sorge)
@Cherishingsparrows2020 Thank you. God bless you.
@Berrybunchfamily Father, please bring your powerful healing to this family of believers. Let all symptoms go away in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.
Me too. Honestly, I must confess it's not easy to stand the pressure. They are blaming us every day in Finnish media that the virus is still existing. I have seen several videos of Americans being ushered out of their working places. Yesterday a Christian man who was employedd at UCLA got fired because he wasn't jabbed. He had worked there for 7 years, and was working there risking his own health during the outbreak of c. (You can see the clip on rooted.wings on Instagram) I am still waiting for more people in my country to get their eyes opened on what's going on. But not even the fact that vaccinated people get the virus and transmit it, and that they get hospitalized, have open their eyes. The problem? We should give it to children 2-11 now. And a third and a fourth jab. They don't see any connections to young people and healthy people getting strange symptoms some weeks or months after the shot. There are three levels of adverse reactions, and immediate allergic reactions are rare.
When after the First World War the first mass vaccination campaign began in South Africa, the AFM (the Mission of the Apostolic Faith), a Pentecostal denomination founded in 1908 (but legally recognized in 1913) by the American Pentecostal preacher John Graham Lake (together with the collaborator Thomas Hezmalhach), who knew William Seymour personally and had been to the Azusa Street Apostolic Faith Mission in Los Angeles, was an important member of the National Anti Vaccination League (see AFM Executive Committee Minutes 1915-20, entry for 28 July 1920; in Barry Morton, Engenas Lekganyane and the Early ZCC: An Unauthorized History, 2018, p. 96,219).
I would be happy somebody could prove this is not true, but the source is the British government, according to this article. (A link to the source of the article is in the bottom of the article). This means the more shots you get, the more vulnerable you are to get sick from mutations. Then it's a total fraud. It's better not to get the vaccine.
"N antibody levels appear to be lower in people who acquire infection following two doses of vaccination.”
"What the British are saying is they are now finding the vaccine interferes with your body’s innate ability after infection to produce antibodies against not just the spike protein but other pieces of the virus. Specifically, vaccinated people don’t seem to be producing antibodies to the nucleocapsid protein, the shell of the virus, which are a crucial part of the response in unvaccinated people."
