It was my First time attending a zoom prayer meeting.
Please Pardon the sound of the rain in my video.
Summary of what I learnt
Some covid19 safety measures were talked about.
We were told that we need to be careful and alert so our entire families will not be infected with the virus, especially the elderlies. Also emphasis were made on the need to adhere to covid 19 guidelines in order reduce the spread of the Virus.
We must not disregard symptoms of covid such as flu, dry cough and soar throat.
And we must learn to take prompt actions when we notice any symptom of covid 19.
3 John 1:2
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
I learnt that patience and Goodwill are good virtues we must possess as christians.
Forgiveness is a manifestation of a good and good will.
We need to be Holy and kindhearted and forgiving.
If we really forgive then we will no longer murmur or remember the past.
Matthew 6:10-12
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
When God forgives, he no longer remembers the past.
We must learn to do same.
We must esteem our brethren more than ourselves, in order to do this we need to do away with evil thoughts concerning our brethren.
Philippians 2:3
Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
When a person dies, it does not mean the person is evil.
It doesn't mean God don't love the person. Or God does not answers prayers.
Death is a reality and the person died because God's allowed it.
Even the righteous dies.
Death does not mean punishment, condemnation or perdition.
How Brutal or Fatal the accident was that led to the death does not determine if the person was evil or not. And it does not mean the person is being punished.
John the Baptist was beheaded Even Jesus Christ was Crucified and hang on the cross.

I THESSALONIANS 4:13
But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

Death could mean Gods protection, and Gods Mercies.
It doe's not mean we are not righteous.
It doesn't not mean we have perished.
God will not allow any of his servants to die if he hasn't permitted, allowed it and if its not his will.
Therefore it is Life After death that matters the most to us.
For those that die in Christ will be resurrected and have everlasting and eternal
Life.
DANIEL 12:2
And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
