We simply have to shake ourselves out of the mind set that Messiah is coming back as soon as the trouble starts. And for those who think believers are leaving before it gets too bad, it's much later than you think! This week in news, The UN has brokered a deal with Iran. Israel has concerns, and rightfully so! A child has been held in a hospital for 9 months and parents are fighting to regain custody of her. Oprah receives a medal of freedom from the White House after making some very disparaging remarks. Bill Gates has pledged to eradicate polio with vaccinations, regardless of the health issues they cause. This economy with no base and no ceiling is still collapsing before our eyes. Police brutality is on the increase.
Fall of 2014 begins the Shemitah, and that means the land is to rest the following planting season. I've been shown to consider this and directed to share it.
Are we really ready to be obedient? What happens if all the land does rest a year from now? What happens, even if crops are planted, the land doesn't sustain them? What happens if the economic woes truly affects each of us beyond sustaining what we're barely managing now?
I heard someone in an interview say something to the effect of, "When people lose everything and have nothing left to lose, they lose it!"
Are we ready for that? I believe when Messiah said, "Be ready," it was more profound than we realize.
