Another interesting perspective!

The lock down began in our country from 25 Mar at midnight.........and now extended till 03 May.

It would be exactly 40 days from 25 Mar to 03 May.....

Something is strangely biblical......

                                   QUARANTINE

The Latin root of the word "quarantine" is "forty".
So what does the Bible say about 40?
The flood lasted 40 days.
40 days Moses stayed on Mt Sinai to receive the Commandments.
Exodus lasted 40 years.

Jesus fasted for 40 days.
Lent is 40 days.
40 days for a woman to rest after giving birth.

A group of theologians thinks the number 40 represents "change". It is the time of preparing a person or people to make a fundamental change.

Something will happen after these 40 days. Just believe and pray. Remember, whenever the number 40 appears in the Bible, there is a "change".

Please know that during this "quarantine" rivers are clearing up, vegetation is growing, the air is becoming cleaner because of less pollution, there is less theft and murder, health is happening and most importantly, people are turning to Christ. The Earth is at rest for the first time in many years and hearts are truly transforming.

So, during this time, enjoy it with your loved ones and return to the family altar together. Family prayer is a great blessing. Through prayer you will see the changes God can work in you and in your home.

Christ promises us that everything works together for the good for those who love God : Romans 8:28!

Remember we are in the year 2020 and 20+20 = 40.

Also, Jesus Christ, the saviour of the world, was born during a census. (And it's the year of the US Census and also, the NPR in India).

Lastly, 2020 is perfect vision. May our sight focus on the Lord and live according to His perfect vision for us, knowing, He holds us in the palm of His hand.

May these days of "quarantine" bring spiritual liberation to our souls, our nation and our world.

The best is yet to come. 

Trust in the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit!


Tailpiece.

Got up a trifle late, the chores and was ready about 15' late. Another of those quiet days!
