Get Your Household Ready - In doing some client work this morning I happened to catch a twitter from one of the people that follows my client's twitter account. It was not from someone who is an active Christian but this person thought it worth questioning others about.
It is a message from David Wilkerson who says that the Holy Spirit has laid upon his heart a message that he must proclaim. The message?
I am compelled by the Holy Spirit to send out an urgent message to all on our mailing list, and to friends and to bishops we have met all over the world.
AN EARTH-SHATTERING CALAMITY IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. IT IS GOING TO BE SO FRIGHTENING, WE ARE ALL GOING TO TREMBLE - EVEN THE GODLIEST AMONG US.
For ten years I have been warning about a thousand fires coming to New York City. It will engulf the whole megaplex, including areas of New Jersey and Connecticut. Major cities all across America will experience riots and blazing fires—such as we saw in Watts, Los Angeles, years ago.
There will be riots and fires in cities worldwide. There will be looting—including Times Square, New York City. What we are experiencing now is not a recession, not even a depression. We are under God’s wrath.
Here is the link to David Wilkerson's
blog entry and the full text. If it had been anyone else proclaiming this I probably wouldn't have given it a second look. But David Wilkerson is someone I respect. He's not what I could call a "spot-light-preacher." It is certainly something worth thinking considering in this day and age we find ourselves.
If you don't think it's possible, well, you are wrong. The end of days will be much like this and far worse. As it is, riots have occurred already in Western nations where banking and governments have failed. And just today Warren Buffet said in an interview on the financial news network that we were very close a total meltdown ourselves in the banking industry. We're not out of the woods there yet.
What should you do to be safe? As Pastor Wilkerson notes, it would be wise to stockpile a month supply of food and water.
Interestingly, before hearing about this message, over the weekend in prepping for leading my Bible study Sunday evening a scripture from Ephesians 5:15-16, jumped out at me and wouldn't let me go over the weekend.
Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
