Jer 3:2Lift up your eyes to the bare heights, and see!
Where have you not been ravished?
By the waysides you have sat awaiting lovers
like an Arab in the wilderness.
You have polluted the land
with your vile whoredom.
3Therefore the showers have been withheld,
and the spring rain has not come;
yet you have the forehead of a whore;
you refuse to be ashamed.
4Have you not just now called to me,
‘My father, you are the friend of my youth—
5will he be angry forever,
will he be indignant to the end?’
Behold, you have spoken,
but you have done all the evil that you could.”
And behold what is happening in the United States. The nation is being judged in many ways and one of those ways is drought. According to NASA, California only has about one year of water left.
We can see this as a judgement of the entire nation as California produces approximately half of the nations fruits, vegetables and nuts.
As if we needed yet another confirmation of the validity of the Lord's signs in the sky (lunar tetrad/solar eclipse), consider that the lunar tetrad will be complete by the fall of this year and that NASA scientist tells us about a year from now California's water will be gone. Curious timing yes?
Sin and apostasy have consequences. We are seeing those consequences here in the United States. Not only does this nation have a sin problem, to add insult the people refuse to be ashamed of it
3Therefore the showers have been withheld,
and the spring rain has not come;
yet you have the forehead of a whore;
you refuse to be ashamed.
The most unfortunate part is that history continues to repeat itself and almost nobody learns from it. What do you mean nobody learns from it?
Jer 3:14Return, O faithless children,
declares the LORD;
for I am your master;
I will take you, one from a city and two from a family,
and I will bring you to Zion.
Out of an entire city one, just one "gets it" and is chosen to escape judgment. Out of an entire city? That is what the Word of God says. And what is happening today? The corruption everywhere in the world but especially in the United States means one thing. Being reformed is out of the question. What is going to have to happen is everything will have to collapse then something new will have to be built upon the ashes.
People continue to "vote for change" and things continue to get worse as one crooked politician builds on the lies and thefts of the previous one yet the people continue to do the same thing over and over again expecting a different result each time. That is the definition of insanity and it is not my opinion but a verifiable fact of history. Over and over again the Lord destroyed everything and only brought forward a remnant.
This nation and the world are facing a perfect storm. Everything that can go wrong is going wrong at the same time. What kinds of things are going wrong? Drought, floods, volcanic eruptions, mass animal die offs, pollution, radiation poisoning of entire oceans (Fukushima, the Pacific Ocean), magnetosphere problems, solar radiation problems (chemical airplane trails, solar radiation management) economic collapse, joblessness, social collapse (racial tensions), moral collapseand the list goes on and on.
Why are we seeing these ^^ problems? Sin, apostasy, and rebellion. It was the same yesterday as it is today and the results are predictable. What we are guaranteed to see is almost total destruction with a few being saved as it has always been so it will be again. There is nothing new under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 1:9 What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.
Matt 7:13“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easya that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.14For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
So what? So the lessons are clear as are the outcomes. What are we to do? Be counted worthy to be part of the few that make it through that narrow gate that leads to life.
Where is there hope in this message? The hope is that although we see are seeing collective sin, apostasy, rebellion and resulting collective judgement we also see individual right standing with the Lord and individual provision, protection etc. That it where we can find hope while the entire world circles the drain of destruction.
The masses could repent at any time and we could see everything turn around but history and the book of Revelation tell us that is not going to happen. We can hope in the Lord's individual saving power. One from a city and two from a family (Lord willing more than two from each of our families!) can make it through what is happening.
We are quickly approaching the end of the current lunar tetrad and what lies beyond it. From my estimates we are about 2-3 years away from the world going to all electronic currency. The economic collapse that is now underway will lead to a worldwide electronic money system that will ensure this happens:
Rev 13:16And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead,17and [he provides] that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, [either] the name of the beast or the number of his name. 18Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for the number is that of a man; and his number is six hundred and sixty-six.
I have heard countless people tell me "yea, my kids might be in trouble but I will never see it in my lifetime." Wishful thinking? No, it is upon us right now knocking on the door.
This is being written to you as a message of hope, not doom. This world is doomed that is certain but you are not. Let us hear what the Lord says to us:
Isaiah 65:11“But you who forsake the LORD,
Who forget My holy mountain,
Who set a table for Fortune,
And who fill cups with mixed wine for Destiny,
Who forget My holy mountain,
Who set a table for Fortune,
And who fill cups with mixed wine for Destiny,
12I will destine you for the sword,
And all of you will bow down to the slaughter.
Because I called, but you did not answer;
I spoke, but you did not hear.
And you did evil in My sight
And chose that in which I did not delight.”
And all of you will bow down to the slaughter.
Because I called, but you did not answer;
I spoke, but you did not hear.
And you did evil in My sight
And chose that in which I did not delight.”
13Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD,
“Behold, My servants will eat, but you will be hungry.
Behold, My servants will drink, but you will be thirsty.
Behold, My servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame.
“Behold, My servants will eat, but you will be hungry.
Behold, My servants will drink, but you will be thirsty.
Behold, My servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame.
14“Behold, My servants will shout joyfully with a glad heart,
But you will cry out with a heavy heart,
And you will wail with a broken spirit.
But you will cry out with a heavy heart,
And you will wail with a broken spirit.
15“You will leave your name for a curse to My chosen ones,
And the Lord GOD will slay you.
But My servants will be called by another name
And the Lord GOD will slay you.
But My servants will be called by another name
grace and peace
