Swine Influenza (swine flu) is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza viruses. Outbreaks of swine flu happen regularly in pigs. People do not normally get swine flu, but human infections can and do happen.
Most commonly, human cases of swine flu happen in people who are around pigs but it’s possible for swine flu viruses to spread from person to person.
Person-to-person transmission of flu occurs mainly through coughing or sneezing of people infected with the influenza virus. People may become infected by touching something with the flu viruses on it and then touching their mouths or noses.
With the possibility of dangerous pandemics looming (Swine Flu, SARS, Bird Flu, HFMD), and antibiotic resistant superbugs (EV71, MRSA, VRE) on the rise, we are faced with the dilemma of how to protect ourselves and families from infectious disease without exposing them to toxic chemicals.
Christians are sensitive of the disasters that are happening around them, knowing that it is how God makes man known His wrath.
Psalm 18:7 Then the earth shook and trembled; The foundations of the hills also quaked and were shaken, Because He was angry.
Isaiah 13:11 “ I will punish the world for its evil, And the wicked for their iniquity; I will halt the arrogance of the proud, And will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
Isaiah 13:13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, And the earth will move out of her place, In the wrath of the LORD of hosts And in the day of His fierce anger.
Isaiah 13:16 Their children also will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; Their houses will be plundered And their wives ravished.
Like earthquakes and floods, who can evade a swine flu when it is mixed with the air that we breathe. Swine flu is a plague that can be avoided only if we have the seal of God. Like the wrath of God to Egypt on the death of the first born.
Exodus 12:12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.
Exodus 12:13 Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.
Is it Paranoia? Of course not!
Deuteronomy 32:39 Now see that I, even I, am He, And there is no God besides Me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; Nor is there any who can deliver from My hand.
For taking a dosage of toxic antibiotics, He made us alive for the meantime, reminding us constantly that He is somewhere looking at us.
This reminds me of the song: Somewhere over the rainbow, music by Harold Arlen and lyrics by E.Y. Harburg.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?
