GOOD CHOICE. -- Ignorance is always the BEST OPTION:

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge ...


Need more sand ...

God isn't the author of secret codes or confusion. Read what the Psalms actually say, instead of searching for hidden meanings, you will be much more encouraged and edified.

Turning 2 God and praying!!

Praying. What is PRAYING?

It seems to me that AFTER we've done all we can and we need MORE, then PRAY. Jesus didn't "pray" the storm to cease. HE commanded.

Take command FIRST, pray second,

I'm handling it by not watching the news, otherwise the fear mongering will consume you.
hahaha WONDERFUL !

A 'doctor' of the mind on television during the last week told people: A lot of people I see daily (and charge perhaps $100 per hour and more each) are worried about the news about the virus.
I tell them to stop watching the news .

Just like the demons Jesus cast out, of which Jesus told the disciples required prayer and fasting at times,

Jesus and the disciples He taught prayed frequently - praying constantly, praying BEFORE contending with the storms, etc

We actually don't know if it is more deadly than the flu. The flu has less than 1% mortality rate, so far, COVID-19 has about 8%. But the sample size is not large enough.
The most statistics seen in the last week are a lot less percent trouble than that .... even worldly people watching the news have commented on how few suffer severe consequences IF they get infected. IF they do not get infected, NO PROBLEM !

Thus, how not to get infected ?

The Tulsa jail used colloidal silver for five months. In those five months, ZERO infections in the inmates or staff. (over 1200 people).

Before that time, over 400 infections required medical attention/ anti-biotics/ drugs.

What happened next? AFTER this was televised....?

The fda banned it, of course. (they even admitted under the freedom act that there was NO RECORD OF ANYONE being harmed or dying by it), yet it is still banned (cannot be marketed or advertised as a dis-infectant). As an oral supplement, etc, it continues being sold (and sold out many places) .

Exactly, the mainstream media has always been a hazard to the public's health. They are the true virus. This recent hysteria is exactly why I have no faith in humanity whatsoever. It shows just how easy you can manipulate people if you know the right propaganda techniques and trigger words.

What first?

"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." Matt 6:33-34


Pray second??? Once you start, when do you stop?

"Pray without ceasing." I Thess 5:17

"I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;" II Tim 1:3

AGREED! :)

... praying BEFORE contending with the storms, etc

Not necessarily for any particular "storm", but to get on the same page as GOD so we can face life's challenges in general. So when we face ANY "storm" -- we're prepared to take command. :)

BE VERY CAREFUL. Too much Colloidal Silver can turn you PURPLE and you'll NEVER RECOVER.

Meeting a husband and wife at 8,000 ft, I thought the wife was oxygen deprived due to her purple color. But she simply had taken too much colloidal silver when she was younger.

"Pray without ceasing." I Thess 5:17 ...

And having prayed yourself up for the day, -- when something arises then don't stop and "pray", -- TAKE ACTION.


Having participated in a "Bibles For Mexico" caravan of vehicles, one Chevy truck was not running properly, and pulled to the side of the road. Everyone gathered around the truck to "lay hands on the vehicle", except me. I grabbed the dwell meter stashed behind my truck seat and adjusted the points.

The truck ran like it should, and everyone gave thanks to GOD "for healing the truck", when it was simply GOD providing a person on the trip with a dwell meter.

Yes pray, -- but take COMMAND. (Lke 22:36)

hahaha....... 'spin' of the , well, system ..... they took their own home made and perhaps MILLIONS of times the recommended ,
yet, they were not sick ! (no side effects , no harm to their body).... the FDA said "NO ONE has been harmed by c.s." ...
and
the health benefits are now widely known via the silver edge dot com /articles/
It is MILLIONS of times SAFER than an asprin, or any chlorox/bleach/ toxic cleaner.

She is a Christian woman, and Jesus did not stop the colloidal silver from turning her purple.

What does that have to do with anything? Why does it matter at all if someone turned blue (that's expected when they do what they do) ?
If someone drinks a couple gallons of carrot juice daily, guess what happens ? Their luke Mia goes away (if they had it), AND their skin turns orange... so what ?

What will I, the Lord, do if any of you reject me and my holy mountain? What will happen to you for offering food and wine to the gods you call “Good Luck” and “Fate”?

Self isolate is recommended for this displaying symptoms.
Not for people to turn into hermits.

History lesson.
Surfing outbreaks of plague in ancient Rome it was the Christians who cared for the sick and dying even when it frequently cost them their lives.
There care for those outside of their family or social group was radicle, against the culture and changed society.

Challenge.
If you are a Christian, how are you caring for your community of non believers?
I reckon that not many forum member will get the virus, because we tend to isolate ourselves in front of our computers for lengthy periods and have minimal contact with others, and as long as other sticky fingers don't use our keyboards, we are safe!

You said Jesus would help us, but HE didn't keep her skin from turning purple.

So I challenge you to Over Dose on colloidal silver and see if YOUR faith protects you! :)

And Good Luck.
