Unlocked!

As history is being written, I’m reminded of the old familiar childhood game: musical chairs. Well, the music has stopped; and the world is left standing—right smack in the middle of a pandemic. Why now? Don’t know. Why us? Don’t know that either. However, one thing is evident; trouble has the tendency to bring out the best and the worst in people. Right now, we are seeing who and what we value as individuals; along with who and what we value as a nation. God has used COVID-19 to unlock the world—exposing the good and ugly.

Nothing is [so closely] covered up that it will not be revealed, or hidden that it will not be known. 3 Whatever you have spoken in the darkness shall be heard and listened to in the light, and what you have whispered in [people’s] ears and behind closed doors will be proclaimed upon the housetops (Luke 12:2-3, AMP).

Look inwardly!

As a Christian, look inwardly; take an inventory of who you are as a believer; think about questions like:

  • During this time of uncertainty, how is my faith reflecting what I profess about God?
  • What does my character say about my relationship with the Holy Spirit?
  • What will I profit if I gain the whole world and lose my soul? (See Mark 8:36.)

As a nation, we should examine our priorities and answer questions like:

  • Why do we place more worth on materialistic gains than we do for human life?
  • Why do we jeopardize the lives of others to satisfy our own insatiable greedy nature?
  • Why do we think we can ignore God and still be boundlessly blessed?

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: (Luke 6:45).

In the midst of all this sadness, hurt, and inconveniences, we must use our faith and see God’s mercy unlocking and revealing—so we can get it right.
