For months now, Coronavirus, codenamed COVID-19, has thrown the global families and communities into serious crisis and unprecedented turbulence. In its escapade, the monster persistently delves deadly blows on humanity. Even the world of sports and economy has been cruelly shaken to its core by the virus. It has ravaged every nook and cranny in its deadly rampage to dislodge and overtake humanity.

Though some class of people like the poor may be vulnerable; however, the dragon virus thrives and moves in the air which both the rich and the poor, white and black, famous and infamous, elite and non-elite breath for survival. Hence, the stay-in-doors, no shaking of hands, sanitizing everywhere and everything and physical distancing etcetera.

Covid-19 effects beget so many unwanted and unexpected pregnancies, hunger, family violence, child abuse, drug abuse, acrimony, mistrust, suspicion, joblessness, hopelessness, hooliganism, rape-married alike; all as a result of idleness. In its shrewd design, covid-19 continues to harass global families, inflicting pains, sorrow, break-up, stress, anxiety, low-self-esteem, distraction, fear, anger, sadness, wife and child molestation and all kinds of ill-health because of sedentary lifestyle.

However, man should re-strategize to attack the virus back, in order to stay alive. Hence, let us keep the family spirit alive; for he who does not spiritualize the flesh lives to canalize the spirit. We must prioritize our family prayer by inviting Christ in our homes.

Various families should create the atmosphere of love, patience, understanding and tolerance and design some family projects, exercises and leisure time. Families should not put their economic jacket, especially husbands, where no hand can reach it. Wives must demonstrate as much as possible the spirit of maturity, mitigation, and support to help move the family forward in this very crucial period. Generally, let us avoid stuffing the ears with fake reports from social media. We should monitor children’s activities, both indoors and outdoors.

Try to maintain family health and wellness, by staying positive, enthusiastic, happy and always smiling; for happiness helps one surmount life’s itching challenges. It helps one to move on in spite of all odds in a turbulent world. For those who are still at home, always check yourself in the mirror. Don’t always eat all, drink all and chew all. Instead of sitting at home, eating and drinking, take a walk, play games and watch movies.

Above all, in the midst of the pandemic, the world families should be more united in prayer in order to delve a huge, devastating blow and fight back on this crazy, satanic virus. For as the crash unceremoniously keeps coming, humanity will take care how to soften its obvious landing.

And because He lives, we can face tomorrow. Do not give up; do not loose hope, stay confident, stay cool; for at the end of the tunnel, one finds a glimmer of light. As the world is horribly sick and ailing, the Bible is God’s manual to humanity. Let humanity return to God, the creator of the universe, with equanimity.

Let all hurry back to God’s open arms and heart to wage counter war against this invisible, witch-hunting demon bombarding the world with mass deaths and mass grave yards. Together, let the global family call on God and set aside a day of prayer, mortification for divine intervention, solution, deliverance and healing like King Jehoshaphat did in Second Chronicles chapter 19, from verse1 to 30. For God and God alone will heal the land and the world to the glory of His name.
