The Olivet Discourse of Jesus and Earthquakes! Part # 1



"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

These are the words of Jesus given from the Mt of Olives to His followers as He shared about the last days, which we are in now. Certainly we have seen nations rising against nations, and Kingdom against Kingdom, all you need do is watch the nightly news.  We have seen many famines worldwide and my novel Hungry Nation speaks of a famine that may hit America. Scientific minds have never had more concern about diseases out of control, and that comes under pestilences. Lastly, earthquakes are mentioned by Jesus during these days. We saw one recently in Pakistan, and many others around the world. 

I want to draw attention to America with respect to earthquakes.  It has come to my knowledge over the last several days that many believers are expecting a major quake in California from October 1 to October 3, 2013. That period begins today.  I do not believe that believers can stop the quakes predicted worldwide and in diverse places as prophesied by Jesus. I do however believe that we CAN through the dominion of Christ keep them out of our own backyard, and save lives or keep loss of life to a minimum. You see, I believe we have dominion over the devil, and this earth. 

The current attitude has to do with the judgement of San Francisco and surrounding areas as it is compared to Sodom and Gomorrah.  But even then, God would have spared those cities for only 10 righteous.  If there is validity to these predictions, we can ask God to spare life in the S.F. area so that many more can be saved to eternal life.  Proportionately, there are many more than 10 righteous in that area and in California.  I awoke at 3 A.M today to pray for this land.  God took me to Romans 8. "For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God."  Verse 19.  "For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.  And not only they, but ourselves also...." Verses 22, 23a.

When the earth groans, earthquakes often result.  We as sons of God also groan, and we also travail, and this travail is often a practice of deep intercession.  I am asking you, if you are given to intercession, to pray with me this week, strongly, especially the next few days.  I am pretty sure some serious earthquakes are coming to our land.  But let the sons of God (daughters included) pray for your own and others' regions, and stay God's hand to mercy, that He not have to bring His Word to pass in certain areas and in certain cases.  

Daniel interceded to God and said, "...we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies."  Daniel 9:18b

If you feel this is a Godly view that needs to be shared, please re-share this blog.
