Also regarding the mandatory vaccinations, as I mentioned in our phone call, we have to trust our Father, Yahweh.
Just as the Israelites were cornerned by the Egyptians, we find ourselves in the same situation. Against the odds and laws of physics, our ancestors were led by the hand through and out of the sea, to safety from their would-be murderers. How many times has our gracious King saved our sorry asses!
How about this:
Dan 3:14 Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?
Dan 3:15 Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?
Dan 3:16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.
Dan 3:17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
Dan 3:18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
Dan 3:19 Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.
Dan 3:20 And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.
Dan 3:21 Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
Dan 3:22 Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
Dan 3:23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.
(3:24) And they walked in the midst of the fire, praising God, and blessing the Lord.
(3:25) Then Azarias stood up, and prayed on this manner; and opening his mouth in the midst of the fire said,
(3:26) Blessed art thou, O Lord God of our fathers: thy name is worthy to be praised and glorified for evermore:
(3:27) For thou art righteous in all the things that thou hast done to us: yea, true are all thy works, thy ways are right, and all thy judgments truth.
(3:28) In all the things that thou hast brought upon us, and upon the holy city of our fathers, even Jerusalem, thou hast executed true judgment: for according to truth and judgment didst thou bring all these things upon us because of our sins.
(3:29) For we have sinned and committed iniquity, departing from thee.
(3:30) In all things have we trespassed, and not obeyed thy commandments, nor kept them, neither done as thou hast commanded us, that it might go well with us.
(3:31) Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment.
(3:32) And thou didst deliver us into the hands of lawless enemies, most hateful forsakers of God, and to an unjust king, and the most wicked in all the world.
(3:33) And now we cannot open our mouths, we are become a shame and reproach to thy servants; and to them that worship thee.
(3:34) Yet deliver us not up wholly, for thy name's sake, neither disannul thou thy covenant:
(3:35) And cause not thy mercy to depart from us, for thy beloved Abraham's sake, for thy servant Issac's sake, and for thy holy Israel's sake;
(3:36) To whom thou hast spoken and promised, that thou wouldest multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that lieth upon the seashore.
(3:37) For we, O Lord, are become less than any nation, and be kept under this day in all the world because of our sins.
(3:38) Neither is there at this time prince, or prophet, or leader, or burnt offering, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place to sacrifice before thee, and to find mercy.
(3:39) Nevertheless in a contrite heart and an humble spirit let us be accepted.
(3:40) Like as in the burnt offerings of rams and bullocks, and like as in ten thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be in thy sight this day, and grant that we may wholly go after thee: for they shall not be confounded that put their trust in thee.
(3:41) And now we follow thee with all our heart, we fear thee, and seek thy face.
(3:42) Put us not to shame: but deal with us after thy lovingkindness, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.
(3:43) Deliver us also according to thy marvellous works, and give glory to thy name, O Lord: and let all them that do thy servants hurt be ashamed;
(3:44) And let them be confounded in all their power and might, and let their strength be broken;
(3:45) And let them know that thou art God, the only God, and glorious over the whole world.
(3:46) And the king's servants, that put them in, ceased not to make the oven hot with rosin, pitch, tow, and small wood;
(3:47) So that the flame streamed forth above the furnace forty and nine cubits.
(3:48) And it passed through, and burned those Chaldeans it found about the furnace.
(3:49) But the angel of the Lord came down into the oven together with Azarias and his fellows, and smote the flame of the fire out of the oven;
(3:50) And made the midst of the furnace as it had been a moist whistling wind, so that the fire touched them not at all, neither hurt nor troubled them.
(3:51) Then the three, as out of one mouth, praised, glorified, and blessed, God in the furnace, saying,
(3:52) Blessed art thou, O Lord God of our fathers: and to be praised and exalted above all for ever.
(3:53) And blessed is thy glorious and holy name: and to be praised and exalted above all for ever.
(3:54) Blessed art thou in the temple of thine holy glory: and to be praised and glorified above all for ever.
(3:55) Blessed art thou that beholdest the depths, and sittest upon the cherubims: and to be praised and exalted above all for ever.
(3:56) Blessed art thou on the glorious throne of thy kingdom: and to be praised and glorified above all for ever.
(3:57) Blessed art thou in the firmament of heaven: and above ail to be praised and glorified for ever.

(3:89) O Ananias, Azarias, and Misael, bless ye the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever: far he hath delivered us from hell, and saved us from the hand of death, and delivered us out of the midst of the furnace and burning flame: even out of the midst of the fire hath he delivered us.
(3:90) O give thanks unto the Lord, because he is gracious: for his mercy endureth for ever.
(3:91) O all ye that worship the Lord, bless the God of gods, praise him, and give him thanks: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Dan 3:24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.
Dan 3:25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.
Dan 3:26 Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire.
Dan 3:27 And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them.
Dan 3:28 Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.
David and Goliath, Abraham and Issac, the stories above, what do they all have in common?
FAITH!!!!!!!!
Absolute trust in Yahweh!!!
Hebrews:
32 Now remember the former days in which being enlightened you endured a great struggle of sufferings: 33 on the one hand being made a spectacle with both reproaches and afflictions, and on the other having become partners of those so returning. 34 For you also sympathized with the prisoners and you accepted the seizure of your possessions with joy, knowing to have and awaiting a better possession yourselves. 35 Therefore do not cast away your liberty which has great recompense. 36 For you have need of endurance, that doing the will of Yahweh you recover the promise. 37 Yet a very little while, “He who is coming will arrive, and will not delay. 38 But My just will live by faith, and if any draws back, My soul is not pleased with him.” 39 Now we are not of withdrawal for destruction, but of faith for preservation of life.
XI1 Now faith is expecting an assurance, evidence of the facts not being seen. 2 For by this were the elders accredited. 3 By faith we perceive the ages to be furnished by the word of Yahweh, in which that which is seen has not come into being from things visible.
4 By faith Abel offered to Yahweh a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he was accredited to be righteous, having testified of Yahweh by his gifts, and being slain because of it he still speaks. 5 By faith Enoch was translated, not to see death, and was not found because Yahweh translated him; for before the translation he was accredited to be well pleasing to Yahweh. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please. Indeed it is necessary for one approaching Yahweh to believe that He is, and for those seeking Him, He becomes a rewarder. 7 By faith Noah was warned. Being cautious about things not yet seen he prepared a vessel for preservation of his house; by which he condemned the Society, and of that righteousness in accordance with faith he became heir.
8 By faith Abraham being called had obeyed, to go out into a place which he was going to receive for an inheritance, and went out not knowing where he would go. 9 By faith he sojourned in a land of the promise, as an alien having dwelt in tents with Isaak and Jakob, the joint heirs of that same promise. 10 For he was awaiting a city having those foundations of which Yahweh is craftsman and fabricator. 11 By faith also Sarah herself received strength for a deposit of seed, and beyond the usual age, since she regarded as trustworthy He who promised. 12 On which account even from one have been born, and these being dead, “just as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the innumerable sand which is by the shore of the sea.” 13 In faith these all died, not receiving the promises but having seen them from afar, and welcoming and professing that they are strangers and sojourners upon the earth. 14 For they saying such things make clear that they are seeking a fatherland. 15 And if indeed they remembered from where they had come from, they would have had an opportunity to return. 16 But now they reach for a better, that is, a heavenly place, on which account Yahweh is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
17 By faith Abraham, being tried, had offered up Isaak, and the best-beloved being offered up took upon himself the promises, 18 in reference to whom it was said: “That in Isaak shall your offspring be called.” 19 Inferring that it is the ability of Yahweh even to raise from the dead, from which He also rescued him in an analogy. 20 And by faith concerning coming things Isaak blessed Jakob and Esau. 21 By faith Jakob, dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and “made obeisance upon the top of his staff.” 22 By faith Joseph, coming to his end, mentioned the going out of the sons of Israel, and gave commands concerning his bones.
23 By faith Moses, being born was hid three months by his fathers because they saw the handsome child, and did not fear the ordinance of the king. 24 By faith Moses, becoming full-grown, refused to be called a son of the daughter of Pharaoh, 25 rather preferring to be mistreated with the people of Yahweh than to have the temporary rewards of error, 26 having esteemed the reproach of the Anointed greater riches than the treasures of Egypt, since he had regard for the reward. 27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the temper of the king, since seeing the invisible he persevered. 28 By faith he kept the passover and the pouring on of blood, lest the destroyer of the first born would touch them. 29 By faith they crossed over the Red Sea as through dry land, of which the Egyptians were swallowed up making an attempt. 30 By faith the walls of Iericho fell, having been encircled for seven days. 31 By faith Rahab the harlot did not perish with those who were disobedient, greeting the scouts with peace. 32 And what more do I say? For the time will fail me relating about Gideon, Barak, Sampson, Iephthae, and David and Samuel, and of the prophets: 33 who by faith prevailed against kingdoms, accomplished justice, attained to promises, stopped up mouths of lions, 34 quenched the power of fire, escaped the edges of the sword, were strengthened from weakness, became strong in war, made the encampments of aliens give way. 35 Women received their dead from resurrection, but others had been cudgeled to death, not accepting redemption that they would obtain a better resurrection. 36 And others received trials of mockings and scourgings, then further of bonds and imprisonment. 37 They were stoned, they were cut in pieces - having died by slaughter of the sword, they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins, being in want, being afflicted, being mistreated, 38 (of whom the Society was not worthy,) wandering upon deserts and mountains and in caves and in the holes of the earth. 39 And all, being accredited through the faith, have not acquired the promise 40 of Yahweh, foreseeing for us something better, that not apart from us should they be perfected.
XII1 So therefore, we also having so great a cloud of witnesses lying around us, laying aside every pretension and easily attention-getting error, with endurance should run the race lying before us, 2 looking to Yahshua, the founder and completer of the faith, who for the sake of the joy lying before Him endured the cross, having despised shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of Yahweh
Lastly,
Psa 91:1 Happy is he whose resting-place is in the secret of the Lord, and under the shade of the wings of the Most High;
Psa 91:2 Who says of the Lord, He is my safe place and my tower of strength: he is my God, in whom is my hope.
Psa 91:3 He will take you out of the bird-net, and keep you safe from wasting disease.
Psa 91:4 You will be covered by his feathers; under his wings you will be safe: his good faith will be your salvation.
Psa 91:5 You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day,
Psa 91:6 Or of the disease which takes men in the dark, or of the destruction which makes waste when the sun is high.
Psa 91:7 You will see a thousand falling by your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.
Psa 91:8 Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the evil-doers.
Psa 91:9 Because you have said, I am in the hands of the Lord, the Most High is my safe resting-place;
Psa 91:10 No evil will come on you, and no disease will come near your tent.
Psa 91:11 For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go.
Psa 91:12 In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.
Psa 91:13 You will put your foot on the lion and the snake; the young lion and the great snake will be crushed under your feet.
Psa 91:14 Because he has given me his love, I will take him out of danger: I will put him in a place of honour, because he has kept my name in his heart.
Psa 91:15 When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour.
Psa 91:16 With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation.
Ok one more!
2Ti 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
