DEVOTION: "The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet. He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers:"(Nahum 1:3-4)

"The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.  He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry,  and drieth up all the rivers:"(Nahum 1:3-4)

"The Whirlwind'. All eyes and ears are glued to weather radars concerning tropical storm,Isaac, in the Gulf of Mexico. Eyes and ears have been in the same alert mode for days concerning another storm on the other side of the world, a typhoon named Bolaven that hit Okinawa.  In one hemisphere they are called Typhoons and Hurricanes in another, either way they are powerful storms that interrupt our lives. They bring fear and anxiety to those in the path of these storms.  These are not the first storms that we will see nor will they be the last. Some people always ask WHY God sends these storms? He actually doesn't send them, God is blamed with lot of stuff He doesn't directly do. When God created the universe, He set certain natural laws into place that cause things to happen. Everything God created, creates! When the elements that God set in place upon creation of the universe line up in a certain order, things happen that keep our planet functioning in balance. I realize if you are planning your beach vacation and it rains all week, that's bad for you but it's necessary for life to continue on earth. I refer to them as the "Laws of Nature", we are aware of them and have enough technology to be aware of these "natural occurrences" and their dangers.  Prophetically, God set time up, as we know it, to only last so long. The Bible  is clear that these "natural occurrences" will intensify in the "last days". "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places."(Matthew 24:7) Please "Google" the history of systemic activity and you'll find a trend that will blow you away, it  is "off the chain", because we are getting closer to the Coming of Jesus Christ!!  "For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now."(Romans 8:22)  The earth is is winding down to journey's end for this phase or time frame that has been pre-set by God Himself.  Jesus will soon come to catch His people away, then the 7-year tribulation period will begin which will produce many unprecedented and overwhelming  natural disasters.  Your personal ship could weigh anchor and set sail into eternity at any moment, eternity has only two destinations.  God has allowed you to choose the destination at which you will spend eternity. I strongly suggest you make the right choice!!
