It is believed nations like the US, England, France, Spain and Germany are about 9-10 days behind Italy in the COVID19 progression. We asked people from all around Italy to record a message to the themselves of 10 days prior.

 
Didn't find it chilling. But useful to see. Italians say they underestimated it, but those of us in other countries still have a very slight window of opportunity to prevent its further spread.

Don't panic, but do respond
 
I am fully living this right now as I am situated in Alessandria a town in Italy. We are next to the most infected region called Lombardia. The So called "red zone"started there and now the whole country has become a "red zone" with heavy restrictions. We just stay at home. We can't go out of our area without a special permit specifying the reasons. It is starting to become a bit heavy, but we carry on. The other day I got a flu ( I don't know which one ). This situation actually made me to think a lot about death and life, even if I am still young and it's been said that this desease is critical for older people, but still it gets you thinking. And I prayed in a way that I don't always do. Am I ready? How is my life with Christ? My desire is that in times like these people can place their hope in God,as we see that no one else can give them an answer for now. I believe it's a time when the gospel must be preached and transmitted more than ever. In anyway. People need to hear the good news.
 
We've all got dark days ahead. Most of us are likely to lose people we know due to this disease.

But we have a hope that transcends even death, and we trust in God's goodness even in the most difficult of circumstances. Let's keep praying and encouraging one another. And be ready to serve and help however and wherever we can.
 
@Ivan Chamurliev How is the situation for you right now? London has gone eerily quiet and we are mostly shut in and bracing for the worst. Horrified to see the disaster that has overtaken Italy.

Well, they are discussing to release military forces to keep the situation under control. What amazes me a bit is that no one can give you exact answers on how this virus is. We will see. I don't want to be over pessimistic or optimistic about the situation. I am just hoping and praying to God for a solution, then whatever His will is, it will be.
1Peter 5:7
 
Our prayer is that God should have mercy on us. We Christians need to believe in His unfailing love.
 
I'm starting to get really scared by all of this.


Fear not brother, that is what God's Word tells us, 302 times in the NJKV Bible. FEAR NOT.

2 Timothy 1:7
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

Luke 12:25

25 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life?

Proverbs 3:5-7
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil.

Bless you

Greetings brother,

You are so right, people need to hear the Good News, to God be the Glory.

But we should not be surprised at these things,

Luke 21:11 (NKJV)
And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.

Famines have always been in parts of the world, but there will be more.

Earthquakes have increased and are increasing, statistics show that there have been more in the last 50 years, they are increasing in number and severity.

There has been in the last 50 years an increase in pestilences, even more so in the last 20 years. HIV, Super Bugs, Ebola, Mers, Covid-19. More will come and we can expect them to increase in number and severity.

But these things happening is not the end brother, Jesus confirmed this and gave the warnings. God is shaking the world due to it's ungodlyness.

We are to pray for salvation of the lost souls, we the workers are few, but our Lord expects us, He tells us we must do so.

We are in the latter days of the end times brother, these are the birth pangs Jesus told us about.

Matthew 24:8 (NKJV)
All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Matthew 24:8 (NIV2011)
All these are the beginning of birth pains.

I believe the 'latter days' were conceived on 14 May 1948, when Israel was declared again to be a nation, since then the predictions have increased, slowly at first as in the stages of pregnancy. The birth pangs come towards the end, the end is not yet but it is getting closer by the day.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV)
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.


Bless you brother

A quote:
“Everybody want to go to Heaven, but nobody want to die”
and I will say this “ and a lot of Christians do not believe in the Rapture”
So tell me, what Bus, are you going to take, to get there?

Why should a Christian “Fear death”? All day long , we tell people to “Fear Not”!
We tell people to pray as follows: “ As I walk down through the valley’s of the shadows of death I will fear no evil for thou art with me”

Our faith does not match our words. We are supposed to tell people also, do not “Fear” Death! You believe in God also believe in “The Words of Jesus”! There is No Bus taking you to Heaven! Now someone is going get mad with me for saying that. Do you want to go to Heaven? Tell me how you are going to get there?


Me and brother took care of my mother when she was dying of cancer when she first found out she had it, coming from my lips, because she ask me to tell her the truth when others wanted to keep it a secret. She had maybe a month to live. I told her, she shouted out! “Thank you Jesus! And she smiled, and called my name, ______ I’m going home!
The doctors and the nurses said, they have never seen anything like it. And she was saying it with “Power” even the hospital female “chaplain “ started crying, We gave our testimony. Me and my mother been talking and singing about Glory for as long as I can remember! Me and her in the house together and my little bitty brother would sing and jump up and down and laugh and talk about heaven, and pray for daddy, who every now and then would get drunk and spend all of his money! She would tells us by name don’t hate you daddy but love him anyhow. So when it was her time, on her death bed, we sing and talked about how she got over, her husband my daddy had become a deacon, praying man who would talk to God Her son one a pastor and one a theologian that loves to talk about Jesus.
that is enough for now. But I watch as she breathe her last breath. Death has no victory for a Child of God! That is why “The Martyrs” of God face it with a badge of courage and honor! And others look at it as a place of fear. “Fear not death pain or disparities but embrace your Faith”. “Faith without works is dead”. What kind of fruits are we to bear? Be a example to those who fear even the fear of sickness or death.

Greeting @PloughBoy

If we are waiting for a bus to take us to heaven, we are on the wrong road.

If we say to someone Fear Not, we say it prayerfully, we are not saying or meaning it in a worldly way. We are to share The Word, The Word is Truth, we are to share the Good News, and lead people to God, through Jesus, the Living Word.

You will be Blessed my friend, for everything you did for your mother in her life and in her time of need. You will be Blessed for sharing The Truth, for not shirking away from The Truth, but sharing it in Jesus Name. So many ministers tell untruths, in the name of compassion, there are probably for untruths told at a funeral service than at any other time in life. It is sad, but you my friend, shared with her in love, that is a wonderful testimony, thank you for sharing it with us all.

Death has no victory for a Child of God. Amen my friend, in Jesus Name Amen
 
Thank you for the your words of reply. We are supposed to tell people of the good news. A lot of people I know lives a good life, but what good news can we possible give them. They believe in God, they believe in Jesus, they got plenty of money, no bills, house paid for cars paid for good health travels the world anytime they get ready, plenty of food. What good news can you possibly give them. But they never talk about Jesus, never pray, read the same verses over and over, love the word of faith moment, Joel olsteen, TD jakes, they just believe. What possible good news can you give them? This is no fake, this the truth.

THANK YOU BROTHER .. I AM SCARED.. AND A COWARD I KNOW.. I HOPE JESUS WILL FORGIVE ME FOR BEING A COWARD.
 
Anybody who's untroubled by this is just not thinking straight. Of course it is frightening.

I'm worried for members of my family, and friends have already lost loved ones too soon.

But our hope in Christ is greater than our fear. He has risen again and conquered death. Death is defeated.
