Corona Virus: Is There a Word from the Lord?

The current pandemic (Covid-19) has left many wondering: ‘is there a word from the LORD?’

The Psalms deal with features of everyday life from pain and suffering, fear and failure, through to victorious success and prosperity. Understanding the Bible, especially Psalm 119, is essential to making sense of living in the aftermath of the Corona Virus. This alphabetical Psalm deals with the blessing known by following after God’s ways, recognising the temporal world and reflecting upon eternity. Its central message points to the promised Messiah – The Lord Jesus Christ, who is the fulfilment of the Psalm and urges all mankind to wholly trust in Him for salvation.

J.P. Beckett, Ed.D., Ph.D., holds a Doctorate from the University of Southampton in Education and Ph.D. from Newburgh Seminary in Biblical Theology. J.P. Beckett has studied at the Metropolitan Tabernacle (London) and currently works as a senior teacher and lecturer based in rural Sussex. He preaches at Appleyards Bible Church and takes a methodical, expository approach to Bible teaching.

J.P. Beckett’s desire is that people may come to salvation; being ‘born again’ and praise God for His word (Psalm 56:10). In so doing, his passion is that Christians may dig, with greater depth, into the precious gems within the Word of God.
