This morning, as is my wont, I randomly opened my bible to see what wisdom the Lord would show me to enable me to steel myself for day ahead.
The first time I opened it, it opened at 2 Esdras chapt 15. As I read I became more and more disturbed as I saw that great storms were mentioned:
38 And then shall there come great stormes, from the South, and from the North, & another part from the West.
39 And strong winds shal arise from the East, and shall open it, and the cloud which hee raised vp in wrath, and the starre stirred to cause feare toward the East and West winde, shalbe destroyed.
40 The great and mightie cloudes shall be lifted vp full of wrath, and the starre, that they may make all the earth afraid, and them that dwel therein, and they shall powre out ouer euery high and eminent place, an horrible starre.
41 Fire and haile, and fleeing swords, and many waters, that all fields may be full, and all riuers with the abundance of great waters.
42 And they shal breake downe the cities, and walls, mountaines and hils, trees of the wood, and grasse of the medowes, and their corne.
What most disturbed me was that this paralled the super storm sent by the Lord to destroy the den of iniquity known as New York.
Having completed the chapter I was then drawn to read Matthew Chapt 24 and found similar verses telling of wars and famine and disease:
6 And yee shall heare of warres, and rumors of warres: See that yee be not troubled: for all these things must come to passe, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdome against kingdome, and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in diuers places.
Reading this made me think, Is this the End of Times?
