	To all the Saints of 
	God,
	Grace and peace be 
	unto all the Saints of God around the World.  During this 
	Coronavirus Pandemic, while  we are following the guidelines of the health 
	and governmental authorities for the safety of all people and in many places 
	you are under stay – at - home executive 
	orders therefore public gathering  have been canceled temporary to control 
	or prevent the spreading of this virus. We have complete faith that God will 
	hear our prayers and continue to provide a way for us through these 
	uncertain times.
	
	     This week’s encouraging words of growth focuses on:
	
	              
	“The 
	providential care of God Almighty. His divine guidance and sustaining power 
	for all humanity". 
	
	Even in the mist of troubled 
	times, God is on the Throne.
	HEBREWS 
	11:06 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh 
	to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that 
	diligently seek him.
	
	
	It is written in his 
	word:
	 “I 
	am with you alway.” Matthew 28:20
	“I will 
	never leave you nor forsake you.”  Hebrews 
	13:5
	I have 
	never seen the righteous forsaken... Psalms 
	37:25
	
	
	What then is meant by 
	standing on the word and promises of God?  It means that all things will 
	work out according to the will of God.  This means to have complete 
	confidence in God no matter what happens in life.  He is in control and 
	cares about his children in good times, bad times, happy times, and sad 
	times.
	
	
	For those who 
	are sick and have the coronavirus:
	Ask God for healing for he is able to heal all sickness and diseases if this 
	be in his will. Perhaps he will send a special blessing for you and your 
	family.  Do not fall for or be persuaded by feel good sermons that cause 
	people to make irrational, unwise, and unhealthy decisions for it is in 
	these times that many false prophets, and false teachers rise up to make a 
	name for themselves with no true care for the resulting consequence of the 
	things they say and sadly cause some people in their despair to do.  God 
	is our healer and all we can do is make our request known to him.  
	Medicines may treat symptoms and, in some cases, even assist in healing but 
	without God’s power all will be fruitless.  Therefore, we 
	give thanks to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who is God Almighty for all 
	those he has healed around the world.  We pray for the healing and well 
	being of all the Saints of God. We pray for all leaders and all people that 
	they to will find healing and comfort in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
	
	
	I will put none of 
	these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for 
	I am the LORD that healeth thee.  Exodus 15:26
	
	
	JEREMIAH 8:22 Is 
	there no balm(medicine) in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is 
	not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
	
	
	JEREMIAH 46:11 Go up 
	into Gilead, and take balm(medicine), O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in 
	vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.
	
	  Again, don’t forget to pray and ask God 
	for healing…
	
	
	And finally, 
	for those who have lost precious love ones: 
	 
	 We thank God for those that held on to their faith in Jesus Christ and 
	embraced his promise of eternal life afar off.
	HEBREWS 11:13 These 
	all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them 
	afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that 
	they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
	REVELATIONS 14:12 
	Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments 
	of God, and the faith of Jesus.
	REVELATIONS 14:13 And 
	I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead 
	which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may 
	rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
	
	     Be encouraged and 
	hold on to God for he has made provisions for life and death.  Be completely 
	confident and trust in him for he will provide our every need.
