Natural Disasters 101


Is there any shortage of natural disasters that you are aware of in this life?

Can you remember the disasters that have crashed violently thru your life? Disasters are the stock and trade of Satan, and in case you haven’t noticed, he is expert in his trade-craft. He seems to be refining his skills as the years inch forward. Have you noticed the so-called natural disasters are getting larger, more frequent, and more severe? Could they get worse?

Jesus said, “He (God) causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.” (Matthew 5:45) If it starts to rain and you forgot your umbrella, is it God’s fault you get soaking wet?

Unfortunately, rain will continue to be a problem. In case you are looking for something additional to worry about, Matthew chapter 24 mentions a few other natural calamities due to arrive on the doorstep. Wars, nations will become enemies, famines will increase, earthquakes will be scattered, and that’s only a few items mentioned. Did the writer forget to mention solar flares, water shortages, volcanoes, melting polar caps, trade winds shifting their course, sinkholes, tsunamies, cyclones, hurricanes, pandemics, nuclear meltdowns, wildfires, and a hundred other boils on nature waiting to fester.    

The end times are rapidly approaching. You can’t be prepared for every twist of nature, or every twist of world politics, but you better be aware and know that the twists and turns the evil one, Satan, will place in your path to distract you from keeping your Creator first in your life. After you die you won’t have to give an account to the evil one.

Jesus gives a grim and accurate turn of events to come in Matthew 24. Perhaps some of the most disturbing warnings and predictions are the fact that false prophets and false Christ’s will appear and will deceive many. They will perform great signs and miracles that will make nature seem tame. Maybe, it’s time to start reading your Bible again for the first time.
