With a new COVID variant on the horizon, mask mandates are back in fashion. How will Americans respond to another wave of oppression?
From The Epoch Times. Nearly one year after President Joe Biden declared the pandemic over, some colleges and work places have reinstituted mask mandates amid reports that the administration is set to roll out new COVID regulations as early as next month.
Visit your state page to pray.
The COVID sub-variant, currently known as Eris, which has been seen in more than 50 countries including Denmark and Israel, has spurred increasing numbers of medical professionals and health activists to begin calling for a reinstatement of COVID-era restrictions, including forced face coverings.
However, the public can expect any new regulations to be met by congressional pushback. Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-Calif.) told The Epoch Times that new mandates would be “simply inappropriate for any level of government.”
“The notion that certain jurisdictions and institutions would rush back into mandate mode is not going to be well received by anyone in this country,” said Mr. Kiley. …
Still, in some parts of the country, mask mandates have already arrived. A slight uptick in the virus led two hospitals in Syracuse, New York, University and Community General, to reimpose mandatory face-masking and COVID testing on Aug. 17, according to local news outlets. …
In Los Angeles, major Hollywood studio Lionsgate demanded employees cover their faces at its Santa Monica office buildings. The policy was announced in an internal memo obtained by Deadline, demanding that “Employees must wear a medical grade face covering (surgical mask, KN95 or N95) when indoors except when alone in an office with the door closed, actively eating, actively drinking at their desk or workstation, or if they are the only individual present in a large open workspace.”
In Atlanta, Georgia Morris Brown College announced a mask mandate for everyone entering its campus. …
Health officials are also beginning to urge the return of face coverings among the general public. The Los Angeles County Public Health agency has recommended that higher-risk residents need to wear masks, citing a rise in COVID cases.
Further, a new COVID booster shot catered to the most recent variant is expected to be rolled out next month, Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Dr. Mandy Cohen told NBC News. …
However, despite the growing concerns, spread of the virus has remained at historically low levels. While the average COVID hospitalization rate nationwide rose about 17 percent between June and July, they remain at a small fraction of what they were a year ago when they measured at more than six times the current admission rates, according to CDC. …

just another election time satanic device. Hell awaits for these monsters
Lord Give us the courage, boldness and strength to stand against untruth and stand against what we know to be an overreach of control, power, and tyranny, especially when it is propelled by a spirit of fear. God does not give us a spirit of fear. Break the stronghold of fear; break the influence of every opposing spirit whch raises its head against You and against truth; break the stronghold of fear which grips people who suffer from a lack of knowledge, because they believe the lies. We declare a spirit of fear will be broken off our nation and truth will arise. We declare that those who are manipulating events and using fear and lies to gain personal benefits, financial benefits, control and power will be exposed and brought to justice. Help us to speak the truth in love, but to stand firm upon it, in our choices and actions. Help us to be willing to pay whatever price is necessary to bring awareness and light to people living in darkness, lies and fear. Break forth with Your light, O Lord and bring truth, conviction of truth, repentance, Revival, renewal and reformation to this land. We declare that this IS what You are doing and we shall have a part in this great work. In Jesus Name. Amen and Amen!
God said, according to His Word my people perish for lack of knowledge.”Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.(Hosea 4:6)
Jesus thirty-nine stripes upon His back defeated and destructed the 39 major diseases listed in the Bible? So Therefore, as the believer appropriate the Blood Of Jesus no devil, no evil, no darkness in this world can touch you!
Those who believe shall Confess and Appropriate the Word and the Blood Of Christ of their lives and love ones in Jesus Name.
Sevenfold application of the Blood Of Jesus:
Redemption: (Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 1:18-19)
Cleansing: (1 John1:7; Psalm 51:7)
Justification: (Romans 5:9; Isaiah 61:10)
Sanctification: (Hebrews 13:12; 12:10)
Life: (Lev. 17:11; 1 Cor. 11: 23-26; John 6:53-57)
Intercession: Eight things to which we have come (Hebrews 12:22-24)
Access: (Hebrews 10: 19-22)
a. Confession(Hebrews 3: 1 ; 4: 14; 10: 23)
b. Approach with boldness( Lev. 16: 13-14
Jesus said, in the Book of Luke and Matthew, whenever we confess (acknowledge Jesus our Lord and Savior, Jesus will also, acknowledge the Believer to His Father and also, before Angels)
The Believer’s Authority comes forward by: Knowning His or Her Identity in Christ, Who is Christ and Whom do we Belong to?
The believer has many weapons according to the Holy Scriptures in the Bible. The three most inportant weapons I appropriated: the Word of God, the name and the Blood in Christ, Jesus our Lord and Savior.
Remember we are fighting from victory in the realm of the spirit. Now Satan has been defeated but not yet annihilated or finally judged; he has been rendered powerless and inoperative. Satan has been stripped of his power and driven out of heaven forever. He is:
* Defeated- Matthew 12: 28-29
*Destroyed- Hebrews 2: 14-15
*Driven out- John 12:31
*Disarmed- Colossians 2:15
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
The first round of covid was a test. The covid was real & people died from it. The “vaxx” was weaponized, and people are still dying from its effects. I refuse to be masked (Congress must pass a law for that. I still refuse any vaxx-I had and recovered from covid. I have natural immunity. And God made our immune systems to make NEW antibodies against any similar threat. This new version of the omicron virus is very mild, and should have minimum effects on the general population. Masks have been PROVEN to be useless. Please don’t “drink the kool-aid” – our current government is no longer “for the people”. BUT, if God is FOR us, then who can be AGAINST us. I have read all the research, first starting in Europe with the 1st round of covid. They were right all along, & my remarks re: this are research-based. God bless you!
They are made with toxic sealant. It can cause cancer. It has been outlawed in other countries but America and China. We have China the recipe all PPE has it. It does not stop the spread of any virus and shots are not the answer as of yet. Pray the blood break off curses. Colleges and certain health care and certain or the jobs make it mandatory it should not. And cast down fear!
Give me more of Jesus!
Chosing to walk by faith and not by sight.
The Lord will fight my battles.
Standing tall as the enemy falls by my side.
Living in Victory not defeat.
Encouraging others along the way.
Loving my neighbor.
I just saw and heard a door shut.
Praise God
Jesus is coming back soon 🙏 Amen
Masks, not worn properly are proven to be unhealthy. They harbor germs and bacteria. Even the box that the KN95 came in says they shouldn’t be worn for more than 4 hours at a time. Then dispose of them! Mandating a whole population to wear them is absurd and unhealthy and psychologically damaging for many people. It also depletes your oxygen supply and causes you to breathe your own exhaled carbon dioxide! They should be limited to hospital and visiting the elderly and vulnerable, in my opinion.
I will not wear them., fool me once shame on me,fool me twice
SHAME on You (biden)
There have been many studies that show the masks don’t work. This is just another way the government is trying to scare the people into following their orders. The shots don’t work either. It’s all about money and power and control. I pray enough people will stand up against this madness! (It’s sad when you get labeled as unchristian or don’t care about someone’s grandma just because you didn’t get the shot.)
Does anyone know the symptoms of this variant? Is it already occurring in the US?
Blessings to all!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO masks or vaccines……..
Father God, you know this is all a controlled plannedemic… It is nothing but the Gov control to take away our rights and freedoms. I will not bow to any man or gov that goes against my God given rights. I didn’t and still won’t be wearing any masks that hinder my health or cause any harm to me or my Children. It is plainly the abuse of power by the Gov. Anyone who is a Christian knows this is absolutely foolish and evil. I will not be masking up anywhere. My protector is my God almighty father in heaven, healer of all sicknesses and my protector. I have put a stop to all this man-made control of our lives. All my brothers and sisters in Christ, please look into all these vaccinations, that the Gov is pushing in order to be allowed to go to school. I have pulled my Kids out of the public school, and I Homeschool them…. These vaccines….. mostly all of them are injecting… monkey cell/DNA, hamster cells, fetal cells, etc. I don’t know about you… but the time has come …”Thank you, Lord,” to take control of what is God’s and mine and take the control back from the Gov and them from trying to control me and what my God has given me. I will stand with Christ until the end. I will not sit down and shut up any longer, we owe our Children more than that. The WH is nothing but filled with Evil and lies, corruption, sin, communism, socialism, and tyranny. We need to stand ….ONE NATION UNDER GOD. He is coming back, and he will be taking his Children home, and the rest will be burnt up with a raging fire. The destruction is real, and his wrath is already upon us. Keep our eyes to the skies. I pray for each and every one of my truely humbled brothers and sisters in Christ!!
In Christ, AMEN
My husband I were ones who’d I’d ALL they talked about in 2020. We social distanced. I mean we STAYED in our home!
Sanitized galore. Seldom went to stores. Wore masks, and gloves too.
Prayed.
Had church at home for months.
And we BOTH..STILL got Covid!
So..yeah..it did NOT work!
Masks do NOT keep you from getting Covid.
Neither do any of the vaccines that they claim prevent it…. it only kills people, injecting us with poison jabs. Not me and my family.
Stand strong in Christ, God bless you and your Family.
What people don’t seem to understand, is in the Satanist culture and demonic world, they stand in a pentagram 6 feet apart, and they wear masks. We are all literally participating in a demonic cult practice to give them more power. First and foremost, we all need to know that and not comply.
Secondly, the United States Supreme Court ruled that forcing mask wearing, lockdowns and vaccinations by force were all illegal and unconstitutional over a year ago. We all have the ability to decide for ourself and no one can make you do anything.
. DO NOT COMPLY!! What do you think they’ll do arrest 340 million people? People only treat you the way you allow them to and you do not allow them to do this.
It Is your legal right under the United States Supreme Court not to comply. This was decided over a year ago. The lying CCP media owned and operated by Vanguard and black rock are just lying to you about everything. They rule this country and pretty much will be ruling this entire Population if we don’t stop them.
Also, how convenient is it that we are going into an election year. This is being done so that their little army of antifa, and Black Lives Matter, who burns down and riots and causes insurrections can wear masks again and no one will know who they are and they will never be arrested, yet people who simply walked around the state capital on January 6 and took some pictures are rotting in prison right now and being denied their constitutional right to a speedy trial, as we speak.
It is also to push mail in ballots and fake elections again. How convenient is its timing????
Please, people, stop acting like sheep, and doing what you’re told. Ask father God in heaven to expose truth and discernment and wisdom to you. He is the only person we should all be listening to and not this ridiculous unproved science, and procedures that they keep trying to push us into. Do you not know how much money these doctors and medical agencies have received by vaccinating people and testing them, etc. it’s ridiculous and it’s being exposed.
Thank you God for showing the truth to those who want to know it and receive it and abide in it.
I thought it was made public already that the vaccine and face masks don’t work. GOOD Lord, deliver us from COVID and all it’s variants once for alland these power hungry people that use it attempting to control us.
Since I am in a position to know that these medical masks do “NOTHING” in preventing a virus from getting through, then I will not be complying. I didn’t the first go around since I knew that these do absolutely nothing in keeping you healthy, as a matter of fact, you should never wear a mask longer than 30 minutes. So no, I will not be complying to this insidious display of power and control or just plain insanity. I cannot sell my soul or compromise for the sake of someone else’s gestapo attitude in where the term, “for the good of everyone” originated, and because of that term that Hitler used non-stop, millions of Jews were slaughtered “for the good of everyone.” I see this insane mask mandate for what it is… a conditioning of the weak willed against those who are evil.
I agree that there will be great uproar from the public if the “MASK MANDATE” is reinstated. I for one have no faith in immunizations rushed out without the proper vetting; the reason the last one was rejected by many and the other reason is using aborted stem cells which was not given the religious exemption it deserved. I, for one, believe Jesus is the only answer to this issue. My one hope is that churches will be considered essential and not be shut down again. The church provides meals to the homeless and many other services that were cut off which created much havoc. The isolation increased the amount of suicides due to lock down: it cannot happen again in Jesus name.
Control and bondage is “their” goal. Our God says FEAR NOT. Make a stand!
God will expose the plans of wicked people to once again mess with 2024 elections and instill fear in people. Hopefully the Sleeping Giant, the Church will wake up, pray up, and stay alert. We must not succumb to the foolishness of 3 years ago
So how would anyone know another variant was on the way except they are th ones that have created it and are going to release it? FATHER GOD I bind the liar demons on these people in JESUS MIGHTY NAME! . Instead of America prosecuting Fauci and Gates and Soros and the Wuhan China Lab for committing murder against Americans and the world, now we are supposed to let these same people a lock us up again with a created virus released again to the world! FATHER GOD I bind these liars that are seeking power and attempting to cheat on the 2024 election once again. Let the people trust YOU and refuse to be locked up ever again, but instead revolt against the wannabe dictators in JESUS NAME!
Carol, I agree with u in prayer. Let God arise and His enemies be scattered. I pray this lockdown and disease frizzles apart. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen☦️🇺🇲
I think it’s all fear based. We know they don’t work. Lord let your wisdom, knowledge and understanding come over your people slowing your perfect love to cast out all fear. In Jesus name . Amen
I don’t intend to carry on this façade with the government. It’s all about control and I’m over it.
masks aren’t the answer They can actually do more harm than good .
Absolutely ridiculous!!!!!!
No way!!!!
Never Again! Intervein I pray Lord, intervene.
I will not comply. This has nothing to do with protecting our health!
How obvious is this again!
JUST BEFOR ANOTHER ELECTION.
I say NO to, and bind the spirits of fear, manipulation, control, witchcraft, STRIFE & DEVISION!
I loose the Spirit of Faith, Freedom, Love, Unity (not conformity), and a desire in the fearful to be REALLY SAVED & HEALED!
In Jesus Name, so be it.
These cult muzzles were never in fashion. I never complied before, and I Will NOT. Not ever, anywhere. Those compliant make it difficult for those who hate it and are fighting this. Grow a backbone.
I think all the Covid regulations are demonic. Covid Virus is a Cold virus. Most people only have symptoms of a cold. To demand that people where masks to prevent a virus which can easily go through a mask anyway is more than rediculous. It is simply oppresive. All people with discernement know what is behind these covid regulations and the virus itself.
Masking is a form of subservience. Masks protect against bacterial infections and some other contaminants but not viruses. They are unhealthy and give false feelings of protection.
Father God, embolden your people to say NO to this ungodly remasking and efforts to lock us down again! Devil, YOU WILL GET
NOT YOUR WAY AGAIN IN THIS HOUR! WE WILL MOT COMPLY TO A LIE! WE SHALL STAND UP AGAINST THIS DEMONIC MONSENSE OF SEGREGATION OF VAXXED AND UNVAXXED! WE DECLARE AND DECREE IN JESUS NAME THIS WILL MOT BE ALLOWED AND WE WILL NOT COMPLY UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST!
It has been proven, with studies, masks do not work! They can actually make a person sick, hands touching them and breathing in our carbon dioxide air. Fear is being used to control the masses. Herd immunity works!
Heavenly Father, let us render Caesar’s things to Caesar but God’s things to God (Matthew 22:12).
I don’t like them and don’t want the government telling me what to wear, but wearing or not wearing a mask is not a hill I’m willing to die on.
Give us wisdom, O Lord, to discern when to obey Caesar and when to engage in peaceful protest.
In the name of our savior, Jesus Christ, I offer this prayer.
It’s a hill I’ll die on. It’s liberty, or death. Some of us have courage to stand up.
Father , I declare “it shall not stand; it shall come to pass.” Isaiah 7:7, in the name of Jesus Christ.
Government policies to withhold medical treatment, force businesses to shutdown , implement social distancing and mask policies were developed to shut down churches, prevent the sharing of the Gospel and leave people without hope. Our hope is in Jesus, not the government. The Good News is Jesus is LORD of the Nations, he is our healer and our deliverer; He is mighty to save! Have no fear of Covid. If the churches in America had refused to shut down in 2019, COVID would most likely be a distant memory of a failed, demonic attempt to thwart the church.
Churches that closed failed their flocks.
Amen Brother!
Time and truth have shown that mask mandates have little to do with health and more to do with controlling lives and turning the public into sheeple.
I have a face covering. Skin. Handmade by God.
Amen
The face, God’s creation, is the most noble part of the human body. No force on the face of this earth will make me veil it.
I Will Not Comply!
We, Intercessors for America stand against, in unity, this evil agenda of the enemy called Eris, to attempt a new wave of Covid, and masking of people. We bind the enemies agenda to kill, steal or destroy our lives, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. This is a fabrication of the enemy to sow fear, and cause havoc in business, schools and churches. No, in Jesus name. Host of Heaven, go forth and guard the people and hinder the enemy’s plans.
Just. NO
That’s it – NO ! If people did that the first time we wouldn’t have this problem. Carefulness is cowardice.
I must address this article…yes…the shut downs and some restrictions were destructive especially to our economy…yes the Covid and peoples views on mandates caused division…but I must say…first please know that I’m a Christ loving God honoring Christian women…and I love Gods Word…but let me add…many Christians jump on a band wagon on issues without ever praying to the Lord in respect to those issues…if you had you would read in His word His views on some things…especially masking…and Why He allowed the Covid in the first place….(ponder that),…
Let me first share that I’m batting multiple autoimmune diseases plus chronic spine disease, MS, and metallosis, and my Dr said if I get Covid it would kill me….and my daughter was only 15-16 when this hit and she’s has early signs of chronic inflammatory disease of which they haven’t been able to determine what type..
During the Covid after my church won a lawsuit to allow us to reopen…I have never in my life seen so much hate, disrespect and division in a church…
My church was supposed to be known for love of people…
But God allowed Covid to happen I believe to expose the heart condition of His people…to which my daughter and I became first hand witnesses to…we’re called to love our neighbors as ourselves, to show the love of Christ to everyone around us….but my daughter and I became as time went on…the only ones in a church of over 5,000 people to wear masks…and people I had known for years and loved, would walk up and deliberately cough on us !!! Yes you read that right….cough on us…some actually were Covid positive…we had a huge outbreak just after over 500 students came back from church camp..we buried over 8 people from that outbreak…people I knew and loved…my daughters best friend lost BOTH of her parents within 5 days of each other…they were hospitalized together and died days apart…not only the hate and division in the church but the hate, discrimination and division in this nation….and what’s worse….we as Christian’s are not to cause division but be peace makers….I personally witnessed Christians cause division…my heart was so broken over the condition of the church and our nation…and to hear people say masking doesn’t work is foolish…why ? Because my daughter and I and a couple of other friends (God always has a remnant), have continued to mask for over 3 1/2 years since the shut down….the masking does work…but for only those who actually put them on !…many of you scream that masking doesn’t work…because you never actually put them on to start with…you scream oppression!!! But let me tell you also….I’m living in an abusive marriage….(yes I’ve tried to leave 5 times, that’s a story for later), I was raised in an abusive home and the oppression that I experienced at home and now is something you all can’t imagine…yet over a simple piece of cloth you scream oppression! No it’s not !!!
Oppression is a husband who financially, verbally, psychologically, abuses you…church people knew what I’m living with but added to the oppression…my point is this….
First I do agree that the shut downs were not warranted and destroyed our economy….but again God allowed these events for a higher purpose that many Christian’s fail to realize….He’s trying to get this nations attention ! This nation is living in idolatry and has turned its back on Him…
And the church is supposed to be living proof of a loving God to a watching world !…
Second….brace yourselves folks….
Masking and social distancing is in fact in the Bible !!!! Yes !!! It’s there in the Bible !!!! But so many of you didn’t want to humble yourselves for the good of others including the weaker vulnerable people around you…it was a ‘me mentality’ and the church failed the test !!! You all missed the point of it all…God was trying to get your attention, and He was exposing the true heart condition of His people ! Selfishness, greed, idolatry, hate, no love for others, proud, boasters,….the church missed an opportunity to show the love of Christ to others so that through that plague many lives would be saved…but because of selfishness and a me mentality…all the lost folk saw was how much hate Gods people could spew out…many of you showed the lost around you selfishness and not the love of God Himself…we’re called to be an ambassador for Christ…but many were an ambassador for self….
Masking is in the Bible…
Please read Leviticus 13:45-46….
(Yes…we’re not under the Law, but under the covenant of grace…But…the Law is a tutor to show us our sinful nature and to show us we need a Savior)
Leviticus 13:45-46 states
Now the leper on whom the sore is, his clothes shall be torn and his head bare; and he shall cover his mustache/Face, and cry, ‘Unclean! Unclean!’ He shall be unclean. All the days he had a sore he shall be unclean. He is unclean, and he shall dwell Alone;(quarantine)his dwelling shall be Outside the camp.(as in isolation until sores are gone)
In those days…leprosy was highly contagious! It was a virus…and to stop the spread they were kept outside the camp…the had to cry out unclean, as in tell everyone their contagious!
Now let’s move on to the gospels…
Yes…it’s in the gospels! So track with me for a moment please…
Go to Luke 17:12-19
Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, Who Stood Afar Off.! (Social distance)And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us !”
So when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so it was that as they went they were cleansed.
As you read you learn only one returned to thank Jesus..and Jesus said “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”
These ten men knew they were highly contagious and yet not only recognized Jesus as the Messiah but respected Him enough to obey ‘the Law’ and mask, social distance, and let Him know they were unclean !
Are you tracking….
But how many people took the time to pray and seek Gods face in the midst of the ‘plague’
How many asked Him, why? What are You trying to show us through this virus? How many actually humbled themselves and obeyed the mandates to social distance, mask, and even quarantine when they were sick…many came to church coughing and spreading the virus…and because of that many lives were lost even in my church for selfish behavior!
God was testing the hearts of His people ! No I do not believe God sent this plague…but He certainly allowed it…
God was exposing the true heart condition of His people and of the church !!!
And many of you failed….instead of humility you chose hate and selfishness, you chose to think only of yourself and not the lost, vulnerable, unsaved folks around you….
I continue to pray daily for Gods people….2 Chronicles 7:14, to humble ourselves, pray and seek His face…
That He would hear the prayers of the faithful, forgive our sins, and heal our land…
But many refuse humility…
God will not heal this land as long as folks do not obey His word…
As long as you refuse to show love and humility to others…He will not heal this land….the first shut down was a wake up call from God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ….
And many didn’t wake up and pay attention…and I fear what the next wake up call for the church will be…
As it is written…1 Peter 4:17,
For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God !
Will you be awake and responsive the next time ? Will you pray and seek His face, humble yourselves?
Sorry for my rant….
But this needed to be addressed!
I will continue to pray for this nation, for His church to wake up and humble themselves, for the corruption in our federal government on Both sides of the political isle….for the corruption is run a muck in our government…
But the condition of our government is in direct relation to the condition of the church…
When a nations government is run a muck…where does God look….?
He looks at the church…
For as my former pastor used to say…
As the church goes, so goes the nation !
And a side not….many of you want to verbally abuse others by calling them ‘dumb sheep’ for obeying the mandates….
May I point out to you that in fact…’.if’ you are a church member and claim Christ….you in fact are a dumb sheep too ! Read your Bibles….Jesus is the Good Shepherd and we are His
SHEEP !!!
So if you don’t think you are a ‘sheep’ then maybe you need to do some introspection! Because Christ followers are the ‘sheep of His pasture , and HIS Sheep hear His voice and OBEY Him !!!
I leave you all with this to ponder…
Please pray and seek Him in His word..have Him verify my words to you….before you want to jump down my throat and react hastily..and
I leave you all with a blessing….
May God bless and keep you…and
May God direct your hearts into the love of God and the patience of Christ….2 Thessalonians 3:5
Take care
I would also like to add…I also agree there is sinister objectives behind the Covid and forcing shut downs…but that’s where godly discernment comes into play…no what to reject and stand against…and know where God is asking humility and love for your neighbors around you…discernment is key…don’t just take an all or nothing mentality! Fight the good fight of faith and show humility where humility and love is needed….the only true way to have discernment is to pray and seek His face in these matters…stand against oppression and be humble to win soles for Christ !
Key words here…discernment and humility!
Have a blessed day !
Denice, I’m sorry for your experience during the previous pandemic. It was not a pleasant time for anyone, regardless of which side of the vaccine & mask mandate they fell on. There was vitriol and accusation flying everywhere! I pray you have been able to forgive and recover. I agree that the LORD allowed, but did not cause it. And I agree that much of what He is allowing is to, first and foremost, test the body of Christ. We need to be refined in the fire, because “judgement begins in the household of God”. The fire exposed a lot of “less than worthy” motivations, attitudes, beliefs, etc. and the only righteous response is repentance.
There is a need, I believe, to address the application of the instructions on “tzara’at”, often interpreted leprosy, in Lev. to how to handle a pandemic. Those who were ‘sick’ were the ones that needed to warn others of their proximity. Those who had leprosy were to be quarantined, not the healthy. They didn’t wear masks – they were to identify themselves by “wearing torn clothes and unbound hair, covering the upper lip and crying, ‘Unclean!’ Distancing was practiced, not between the healthy – but between the healthy and the ‘sick’. And the responsibility to distance primarily fell on those who were ‘sick’. Quarantine has always been practiced to protect the healthy, by isolating the ‘sick’ – not required of the whole population. And the healthy were not purposely placed among the ‘sick’ – as were many during the previous pandemic resulting in not only the unnecessary risk of death but death itself. So, I question your application.
We are dumb sheep, but shouldn’t remain so – since The Teacher of All Teachers indwells us, and The Instruction Book that we received is Absolute Truth. But I do pray that we will cease vilifying one another when we don’t agree about a course of action. What I believe caused the LORD the greatest grief, was the fact that we as the church responded in ungodly ways to one another – not whether we did or did not receive the vaccine, or whether we did or did not wear a mask.
I bless all of my brothers and sisters in Christ – “until we all arrive at the unity implied by trusting and knowing the Son of God, at full manhood, at the standard of maturity set by the Messiah’s perfection.” Eph. 4:13 I’m not there yet, are you?”
Listen here – it IS A BIG DEAL and it is oppression. If you had an inkling of what is behind this satanic agenda you’d know better. Piece of cloth – BS. I’m sorry you are ill, but this is a CONSTITUTIONAL Republic. We the people hold the power what we do with OUR bodies. I won’t rant like you, but basically if you want to wear four GO AHEAD wear four but don’t attempt laying guilt on others.
No! Just No!
Thank you for your insight. Love in Christ to you.
Here we go again- There those that divide and those that do not learn from the last COVID outbreak and response- And of course, those that delight in mandating behaviors- AKA Gestapo, Thought and regulation police etc-
those that seek complete control over us as in mask mandates have sinister objectives in mind and it has nothing to do with public safety!
Resistance is warranted!
I never wore a mask the first time,.and I will not now. God has NOT given us a spirit of fear! I also read pre-covid research about the inneffectivness of masking for virus. Not the research is out for COVID masks. It agrees that they were completely inmeffective! Do not wear the slave mask of the enemy!
This is another attempt at fear mongering and control over people. The anti-christ spirit is working on demoralizing and bringing fear among the masses. It wants to silence the churches, shut down businesses, and take away all hope. Covid masks mandates and vaccines were exposed as ineffective. We need to pray that God will move in the MSM and governments exposing their evil agenda. Awaken oh believers!! Let us stand for King Jesus and as…
Isaiah 5:20
King James Version
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Fear will rein as the majority of our population has not been through this type or scenario. I have been through the polio epidemic and there was not the open and published fear as we see now. We were aware of different illnesses, but not living in total fear.
This illness, I believe is being released by ‘others’ and it is known to many who that is.
If we know the Lord Jesus then we know our ultimate destination. Do not live in fear, only caution.
There will be different reaction this time.
I think we all know what they can do with their mask mandates. Not falling for this crap again.
Masks are absolutely useless. The virus is much smaller than the openings in the fabric of masks. Masks didn’t stop the spread of the virus. They are tactic of the enemy to keep us from worshiping our God. It’s time for the church to rise up and push back darkness for the sake of our children’s future. I say the enemy’s words, tactics, and actions are empty! We should all say no more lock downs or poison jabs that have killed numerous people. The jabs did not keep people from getting sick. It’s a plandemic plain for anyone who want to see it.
God Bless
We will not comply…
This is my decree.
No! Just no! The true Church should have learned her lesson. But do we ever hear pastors say, “We were wrong to submit to the govt mandates in the past.” I haven’t. So, if we didn’t repent from our previous compliance with “the state,” will we stand against their dictates now? “
I’m sorry for your experiences with pastors. My pastor never required masks, nor did he or his family get the jab. He stands firm on the Word. Surely there are other pastors who stand for what is right and stand against tyranny.
Yes! In Ohio, my pastor stood strong! We never closed and were never required to mask up. If anyone wore a mask, they were loved and accepted like all of us!
A lie and a coverup go hand in hand and masks fit the narrative! (Ps 119:18 Open my eyes to see the wonderful truths in your instruction.) God’s guidelines help us to follow his path and avoid paths that lead to destruction. As the world spins out of control God’s Word is our solid foundation of truth. The more we learn the truth the more we see the lies which the masks can not disguise.
Definition of insanity? To do the same thing over and over despite it not working!
This is pure insanity. EVERY legitimate study out, and there and numerous of them now, proves masks do NOT work. If anything, they increase ones risk of illness. So why do these people continue to cling to these failed mandates? Worse, why does anyone with half a brain “sheep” up and obey??
I am not for this mask before and definitely not now the devil is a lie.
It was known that masking doesn’t work (stop the spread of anything) before covid – that’s why masking has never been protocol for flu. Hopefully, we learned from the recent covid debacle that masking didn’t work during covid and doesn’t work. Masks made no difference statistically in transmission outcomes of the virus. In other words, masks were and are ineffective and therefore unnecessary. Masks provide no benefit, BUT ironically, they do cause harm in various ways. Psychologically, they instill fear and are a constant visual reminder to people that they are (supposedly) in imminent danger, which is a lie but what they want us to believe because scared people are easier to control. Masks adversely affected young children’s language development , social skills and ability to read facial cues that we all take for granted. In school, as a teacher, masks added another layer of difficulty in communicating with students, it was hard to understand what they were saying when they were masked. Classroom instruction is impossible in a mask. The negative impact developmentally on children and psychologically on us all cannot truly be measured adequately but we have all suffered from it in various ways. The only thing masks are useful for is virtue signaling – which creates division and stress. In short, masks are all harm and no help. These mandates will create strife and division but do nothing to stop the spread of any disease. They are unconstitutional and should be resisted as we don’t want the government taking away our freedoms and autonomy, little by little. There is no reason for these mask mandates – we should actually “follow the science!”
Lord, You are the author of true freedom – let Your truth set us all free spiritually and I pray that truth about masks and their efficacy (or lack thereof) will set us free from this tyranny – which is why they want to bring it back – it is control that comes with a visual display of who is in compliance and who is not and therefor needs to be punished by being barred or banned from different things. the antidote – places that don’t require masks will flourish – places that do will lose business etc. http://www.mtothe5th.wordpress.com
Dear Father
Wake up America to truth ..real truth
And may wecresistvthe devil in your holy name some must flee from us.in your holy name Amen
The masks strike fear while doing little to stop the spread. Let us all pray against the evil that wants to set us apart and cause fear
Eros meaning Greek goddes of strife and discord strife means angry or bitter disagreement over fundamental issues conflict strife within the community
Masks are implemented to enslave people. It’s been used for centuries.
Unfortunately, people have forgotten how to think for themselves because for many decades we have been slowly indoctrinated to do what we are told to do without questioning anything.
AKA “boiling the frog”
That has to STOP NOW!!
Call upon the Holy Spirit, our teacher, for help……..
Masks don’t work, it’s already been proven this is medical tyranny. How about we all just boost our immune systems and if we feel sick, or have a fever. Just stay home, rest and get better with regular medications healthy food. Like we do with the flu or any other illness.
I will not wear a mask. Fortunately I’m retired, so employment is not affected, but anywhere else where masks are required I will not comply. If entry is denied then I will take my business elsewhere.
I will not wear a mask. Masks do not work
God Ibpray against mask mandates, protect R Freedom & keep government from abusing its powers, amen & amen
Historically masking has never worked. He still doesn’t work. No scientific backing for its efficacy. Quite the opposite. And we know now after this 3 year public trial that the shots do not work. And yet they will push both back on us. Wise up and stand against the tyranny, lies and control!
HERE WE GO AGAIN 😨 FEAR. CHRISTIANS WHO TAKE VACCINES. HOW DUMB CANU BE AND STILL BREATHE 😒. PLEASE DON’T TAKE VACCINES
I personally think the masks are absurd and again a coverup, to bring more division, strife and discord. There is nothing good about a mask and they don’t even work. It’s another place people hide. It’s a lie of the enemy.
Lord, open the eyes of our hearts and may we respond with Your love and grace to those who follow these mandates. Give us the words to speak, or not speak. We owe no man nothing but to love him I pray for those in public offices for their eyes to be open to the lies and deception of the enemy. What Satan means for evil You will turn it around for the good of those who love You according to Your purpose. God, You are bigger than all of this and I know Your heart is to bring all Your children back to You. You are an amazing God, a Good God and I praise Your holy Name. Our greatest weapon is praise and Thanksgiving. Thank you, thank you, thank you for Who Youbare and whose we are. In Jesus Name.
Here’s a better story from a surprising source. God ensures truth will out. Praise, Him, not science.
No complance= No power
This world needs Jesus
Simple and direct. NO MANDATES AND NO MASKS
Take the authority of Christ and do not comply with tyranny!
We’ve known this was lurking in the shadows of satans evil plans.
We must pray this “not so new virus” will cease to be a threat and become irradicated from spreading and be turned back against the evil perpetrators who have created it!!
Almighty God has all power and Authority over all of satans plans and we as born again, spirit filled Christians have Christs Authority to ” take authority” over that which is meant for our harm in Jesus Name!!
In deed we must stand in unity, in one accord to see God lifted up and glorified in this further plan for our harm…🙏
Alice, they had released Marburg but it fizzled out because nobody complied.
Thank You Jesus!
Thank you for thus information. Nothing is new in the devils strategies. Confusion and evil are lurking but we as Christ followers can walk in peace and joy and stand against the evil one in unity.
No way—I will not comply!!!!
