Seeking Christ not the Internet

So many people are hearing more reports about more vaccines and becoming agitated not knowing what to do and not trusting anyone concerning this matter of vaccines.
We don't know the answer to this which is why we must all trust God. Consulting with God before doing anything is far better than reading all the material on the internet trying to sort out information we don't even know is accurate.
A person could drive themselves to madness attempting to sort all the internet hype out according to their psychological bent.
All of us have preconceived notions based on our fears and internet hype, it is best to ignore all of it and just ask God. How could it be wrong to ask God instead of trying to assess all the news on either side to come up with yet another erroneous idea based on our own fears?
No one can know exactly what is right in this for every individual on the earth. However, God knows exactly what each individual should do and He has His own purposes for each of us. No need for us to be confused, ignore the hype on both sides, and just ask God while doing what He tells us.
Sadly paranoia is setting in for believers when they should be at peace without fear as they trust Christ Who lives in them.
Satan can use the internet to terrify believers making them look foolish instead of at peace. If we act paranoid merely because of articles we have read or people who claim all kinds of things based on their fears, we will effectively destroy our Christian witness. What have we better than the unsaved when we are running around acting terrified of our own shadows.
As I have said many times to people, I do not fear any of it. God has allowed this mess to show us our own hearts. Those who become agitated and paranoid need to ask God to bring back their trust in Him and peace that He has this, we do not have to figure it out.
Proverbs 3:5-6
"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."
Do you believe if you trust in Christ instead of leaning on your own understanding He will direct your path in all things? If you do then you have no reason to even consult the heathens in the news for their ideas at all. And, yes, there are heathens in the conservative movement as well as the liberal one. Just because someone is conservative does not mean they are Christian or that they know what we should do.
Let that sink in a little!!! Too many people equate conservatism with Christianity but it is not true. A person can be conservative and on their way to hell without Christ. If they are lost conservatives they will not have the right answer because they do not consult God for anything, they fly by their own ideas based on self and fear.
Proverbs 3:6-8 "…6 in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. 7 Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and turn away from evil. 8 This will bring healing to your body and refreshment to your bones.…"
Depending on Christ will allow us to make the right decisions because He will answer when we ask. Those who do not depend on Him will not have the right answers, they will depend on what they think they have figured out while listening to the pagan conservatives who depend on their own fallen and fearful minds.
Romans 11:25A
"For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; "
Those who think they have this virus, vaccine thing figured out never speak of Christ, they always speak of all the articles they have read and the videos they have seen.
Bottom Line: Seek Christ, not men or the internet!!!!
