Luke 21: 25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring.
In fact, sooner, or later we the people would have to face the music of the skyrocketing national debt and let none be deceived into thinking that we would be able to print our way out of the problem. Satan uses the principle of gradualism to cook the unwary to a slow death, and by the time things hit rock bottom, it may be too late.
It is quite possible for there to be a repeat of those same dire situations in our day, as when Nehemiah lived, as persons and families scramble to deal with inflationary pressures, which may not be letting up any time soon. And lest the remnant people of fall into arrears, and decay, we should be humble, and willing enough to follow the counsel, and instructions God gives.
To put it plainly, things will become very different as we approach the second coming of Christ, which is a fact that many of us are yet to be fully reconciled to, for great changes to our everyday lives are already on the way, and for this reason, both individuals and families would have to become accustomed to the new abnormal.
Luke 21:26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
