should we ask modern prophets when the virus thing will end?
I think they are part of the reason God sent it, plus those who listen to them.should we ask modern prophets when the virus thing will end?
Like who would you ask? Who do you consider a "modern prophet".should we ask modern prophets when the virus thing will end?

We could ask, but who would believe their report? People did not believe the report of prophets of the Bible. They will not believe modern prophets today.should we ask modern prophets when the virus thing will end?
The office of Prophet still exists today.God's revelation was complete when the last book of the New Testament was written. There are no "modern prophets." 1 Corinthians 13:8
should we even pray for the virus to end? Don't get me wrong I am sad to see the death and the impact this virus has, but if it wasn't for the virus some people would not have repented. God always sent viruses in the Bible partly as a warning for humanity to repent and turn their hearts to God, isn't it therefore partly good that God allows viruses. Besides God from the beginning says what will be at the end, and He said that before Jesus returns there will be a lot of natural disasters, famine, etc etc so we shouldn't pray for God to change His mind, rather than when such things happen we should pray for people to repentshould we ask modern prophets when the virus thing will end?

Ephesians 4:11
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
God's gifts are irrevocable.In the early period of the church there were apostles and prophets but not so anymore. Also, the sign gifts such as healing are no longer given. 1 Corinthians 13.

Romans 11:29 King James Version (KJV)
29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
Romans 11:29 New International Version (NIV)
29 for God’s gifts and his call are irrevocable.

I would be more concerned about the omission of warning and preparation for God’s people. If they’re working for Him; why were they silent?

God grants repentance. If he wanted people to repent he would grant it. But he also destroys the wicked using his 4 sore judgments. War, famine, plague, and wild animals. We see this in Revelation and throughout the OT.Perhaps God made farmers crops fail and his family starve as a “ warning for humanity to repent and to turn their hearts to God”
Perhaps God put the iceberg on front of Titanic for same reasons.
Perhaps He struck the spark that made Hindenburg to go up in flames.
The need of humans to get some emotional relief by inventing reasons and motives in disasters does not make them real.
It is a pandemic. There is zero evidence it is anything else.
If God wanted people to really repent why not send something that makes the point ?
Horde of angels chopping people’s heads off would make a point.
Another earthquake, another volcanic eruption, another meteor strike, another pandemic.....
All have natural causes and have been with us since beginning of our history.
Just so silly to hear every time something crosses the news threshold that it is because of....whatever is bugging me at the moment...God did it.
