A Few End Time Signs (Pray For Tsunami Survivors)
Sunday's Devotion (1-2-05)
"And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of
wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all [these things] must come to pass, but
the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers
places. All these [are] the beginning of sorrows." Matthew 24:6-8 (KJV)
These are some of the signs of the last days listed here.
There are more signs in Matthew chapter 24. I wanted to point these out because
there are wars and rumors of wars. Nation shall rise against nation we are
seeing that happen. There shall be famines, I haven't heard of any famines yet,
but there may be some. Pestilences, I don't know about those either, but there
are earth quakes. There was recently an earthquake in Asia, I believe that it
'caused the tsunami that killed over 125 thousand people. That is the greatest
disaster of our modern age. Those people in that area could definitely use our
prayers. One man lost 72 relatives in this disaster, just so you can get an idea
of how greatly this affects those people. There can't be one survivor that isn't
effected by this in some way. If this isn't a sign of the last days then I don't
know nor do I want to know first hand what is. Also over 5 million people are
homeless now because of the tsunami. Please take the time right now to pray for
all of these people. They can really use the prayers and support.
I strongly suggest that everyone take the time to read Matthew 24 and the rest
of the Bible to learn of all the prophesies. We are living in the last days, I
truly believe that and I hope that you all will be ready for this. Part of the
preparation is to know God's Word. Please take the time to learn His holy Word
and to know the truth. With these days that are coming upon us we will need the
truth in our hearts and minds at all times or we will be deceived. Please do not
put this off another day. Let's be prepared for these days and for the return of
Christ. There is also an important section in Matthew 24 that tells us how to
expect the return of Christ and tells us that many will come and lie saying they
are Christ. When Christ, does return it will not be in private to just one or a
few people, but all will know of his return.
Pray for strength in these days and for the revival to come soon before more die
without Jesus. Times are going to get tougher and I pray that the survivors of
this tragic tsunami will be able to have the strength to go on and get the
shelter that they need.
Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for this message and for all things.
Please forgive us of all our sins and we forgive all those who've wronged us.
Please give us strength in these days and especially give the survivors of the
tsunami strength and help them get shelter. Bring upon us the great revival and
peace in Jerusalem. In Jesus, name. A-men!
God bless!
