The Olivet Discourse - Jesus and Earthquakes! Part # 2



"And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you 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 diverse places.  All these are the beginning of sorrows."   Matthew 24:6-8

A Crack in Liberty

Our Lord Jesus prophesied certain events in the last days, and no one is arguing that we are in the last days.  He said it would be like the days of Noah, and that is definitely what our society has become.  Last time, I wrote about our dominion over earthquakes, in Part 1, and you can read that in a link at the bottom of this blog.  God prophesies deadly and destructive earthquakes, but that does not mean He causes them. They come from the curse on the earth, and the earth is in a death cycle and a sin cycle which is evident from bad weather, earthquakes and other deadly issues that we see.  I do believe that the sons of God can rebuke an earthquake to stop it or lessen it or cause the ground to shake, and cause one, as God's ambassadors and as the Body of Jesus on earth.

Scientists have said that there is a huge fault line right through the top and middle of the Mt of Olives, outside Jerusalem, and Jesus is supposed to return and set His foot down there first when He returns.  That Mount is already set up by fault lines to split open in a mighty quake as Jesus returns, and causes it.

The ground shook at the crucifixion, and many dead came back to life.  I am pretty sure that the Holy Spirit brought that earthquake to pass also, by the same power that raised Jesus from the dead. So what are the last days quakes for?  We know the earth is under pressure, no doubt from the curse and a fallen Creation, but God told us in Jesus' prophecies of Matthew 24 that we would see these happen just before He returns.  God does not have to cause them to use them as signs.  And they are signs that His return is very near.  Earthquakes happen at major redemption events and preceding them.

Now I will explain the Liberty Bell pictured above.  A crack in the fabric and infrastructure in America from a major disaster could not happen at a worse time than now.  America is a house of cards, and we are sick as a nation.  Christians need to pray now because a major event such as an extra devastating earthquake could collapse our economy.  This could leave America in a bad place and alter many lives. America seems to be heading to a police state, where the gospel of Jesus preached may not only be not politically correct, but also illegal.  Pray for America.  Pray that earthquakes bypass us, at least big ones that shut down services or commerce in many regions.  Pray for the government of America and its people and pray for righteousness to return to America through Godly leadership. Pray for the well being and salvation of the President, but I believe it also wise and Godly to pray for his removal from office, which could be done by Congress. 

Our Liberty Bell is cracked, but where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. God has poured out His Spirit on all flesh. Let's pray His mercy into our land, the literal land, and the people too!
