Many health authorities around the world are predicting a second wave of infections from the coronavirus later this year. They cite their models and past experiences with other pandemics as evidence to back up their predictions.
The good news is that their predictions can be reversed and avoided! We can do something to prevent a second wave from happening. We can know the spiritual truth that stops infections.
Infections are not inevitable. More than about a virus, they are about the spread of fear and false belief that translate into physical suffering when adopted, either consciously or unconsciously.
We can resist and defeat infections by knowing God’s government and control over health.
We are not helpless mortals that have to accept whatever materially comes our way. We are immortals, endowed with spiritual power and ability to stay healthy and well.
When we know who we are, as God’s spiritual creation, an understanding of Truth protects us from believing in a counter error that would translate into physical suffering. A spiritual understanding of Truth prevents infection.
So, let’s not accept dire predictions made by health authorities as inevitable truth. Let’s love the world with spiritual truth and prayerfully see that every neighbor is shielded in Love, protected in Truth, and loved by Life so completely and wholly that no infection can ever enter their being or threaten their health.
The Bible says, “What do ye imagine against the Lord? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time” (Nahum 1:9, KJV). Truth makes an utter end to error such that error cannot repeat itself. It can only stay gone.
We live in God’s universe, where Love is the atmosphere we live, move, and breathe in. There is no room for affliction of any kind. Just omnipresent and ever-present harmony and peace.
Thanks Evan, this is so important. I so love ” we can resist and defeat infections by knowing God’s government and control over health”. How blessed we ALL are now!
I love that quote from Nahum – it is so utterly powerful. The problem will not arise the second time, because we understand in Christian Science that God never caused it the first time. It has no cause, and so it never had a starting point in God’s wonderful creation. If there is no first time, there can be no second time – God has made an utter end to the whole illusion with His spiritual Law of Love and Truth.
Christian Science is the Truth that makes all of us free from the fear of something God never made
We can hold to this, and shine out the light of spiritual understanding that we each have, to help and heal.
I agree, we are on God’s time, so we needn’t accept what “others” tell us to fear God’s time is eternal, now, present, and is always good. We live and move and breathe in atmosphere Divine.
Thank you Maggie. I love your comment “If there is no first time, there can be no second time…”
I’ve also heard it put this way concerning relapse “If you’ve never been to Rome you can’t return to Rome!” Both are so logical and helpful. (=
I love Mrs. Eddy’s article Admonition and Counsel on page 210 in Miscellany too, where it says in part: “Good thoughts are an impervious armor; clad therewith you are completely shielded from the attacks of error of every sort. And not only yourselves are safe, but all whom your thoughts rest upon are thereby benefited.”
And special thanks to Evan for alerting us to defending ourselves and others from this dire prediction which has no truth to stand on.
I agree Maggie, whatsoever God did not create for Man to manifest, it did not happen and is not happening. This fact of God’s perfect creation and state of present being is all there is for mankind to experience. Truth truly erase human history of error from consciousness and expunge material records proving spiritual idea Man has no mortal history. I experienced this complete healing when my son was totally healed with no traces of detrimental effects from a fall from a tree and in fact that incident does not exist in his consciousness as he claims eversince, it never happened to him. His dad experienced an illumination moment and declared it was a non-event, so this matter was completely forgotten.
I love this thought from Science and Health:
In Christian Science there is never a retrograde step,
never a return to positions outgrown. SH pg. 74
Let’s outgrow the thought that there could be something that God did not make that could affect us in any way. God made all and He made it all good. Thank you Evan for your uplifting blogs!
Thank you Sanibel. And nothing God did not creatie exists at all!
Thank you Evan for this timely message. God never created an element of error, so man cannot express anything but good.
Laughing about waiting for a “round- to-it”. Never have found one. Like I’ll get aroundtoit sort of thought. We collectively aren’t needing to find a “round-to-it” for a virus.
Thank you for addressing this subject which has been in the news Evan.

Kirsten, thanks so much for the very powerful article by George Shaw Cook. And thank you, Evan, for initiating all these SpiritView discussions, which daily remind us not to become slack or lethargic in our duty to defend ourselves daily against aggressive mental suggestion.
It really is important not to open the door at the last moment before the victory, too, as another writer reminds us. We have to watch against complacency.
Thank you for this Blessing !!!!
Exodus 14:13
“And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.”
This passage was of a great help in a time of a seeming “sticky” problem. Years after I can say I never saw these ” Egyptians” again. Thank you Evan and all who comment.
With all the bad news we hear today I am very grateful for the this daily reminder of what’s really True. Thank you all!
Thank you Kirsten for the article by George Cook. It addresses the belief of errors’ recurrence perfectly. And Evan, for speaking with power and authority over the claims of mortal mind. We can be firm in our knowing the continuous and uninterrupted harmony of God’s government.
I’m going to memorize this sentence and use it as a basis for thinking rightly each day!
“Let’s love the world with spiritual truth and prayerfully see that every neighbor is shielded in Love, protected in Truth, and loved by Life so completely and wholly that no infection can ever enter their being or threaten their health.”
Thanks Evan!
This is so powerful, Nahum 1:9….”affliction shall not rise up the second time.” Because in God’s universe, it never had a first time. Thanks so much for sharing.
Timely as usual Evan. I’m doing the same as Brenda K. – and making copies of that for several people. Thank you all.
“Gratitude is riches, complaint is poverty”
The hymnal says it all
As always, gratitude to all…
…especially Evan
