Psalms 55:8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.
It was observed that for some unknown reason, as the cat 5 hurricanes were increasing in frequency and intensity, (Hurricane Wilma in 2005 was the strongest on record) the years between 2008 and 2015 had no recorded cat 5 hurricanes. This significantly raised our eyebrows, for the cat fives were increasing in frequency from 2003 to 2007, and then for 8 years, there were none.
That got us thinking as to what could have happened in 2008 to 2015 that could have been a factor for the sudden drop off of the cat fives. We have not a clue, but the facts are the facts, the cat fives stopped for some unknown reason in 2008 and resumed their onward march in 2016, an 8-year span. We have not a clue, just an observation. This leads us to the Bible study, of “Why The Earth Is in Turmoil”.
As was stated before, God teaches by repetition and He bids us to study His word the very same way, by stacking line upon line and precept upon precept so as to get a clearer picture of what He is saying. In several places in the Bible, the number 6 is often followed by the number 7, and apparently this isn’t for chronological reasons only, because it seems to be something deliberate with a specific purpose.
Exodus 16:29 See, for that the Lord hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide you every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
May the Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
