Living On The Brink Of Eternity. Part [4] 09/08/2023 (Morning thought)

Haggai 2:16 Since those days were, when one came to an heap of twenty measures, there were but ten: when one came to the press for to draw out fifty vessels out of the press, there were but twenty.

Haggai 2:18 Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid, consider it. 19 Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, as yet the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree, hath not brought forth: from this day will I bless you.

Unless the spiritual component is addressed, earth will continue to heat up, and the inhabitants thereof will continue to feel the adverse effects, as rivers dry up, as heat waves trigger severe drought and as wild fires continue their destructive march across islands and continents. The drought in Haggai’s day actually had nothing to do with global warming, because the reason for that severe famine was a spiritual problem.

But help is on the way for persons who choose to live by the principles and laws of the Bible. At God’s discretion, the promises made to the righteous will be fulfilled in due season, for nothing catches God off-guard, and as such, He has already made needed provisions, when the adverse results would become unbearable. It all has to do with living on the brink of eternity.

Isaiah 4: 6 And there shall be a tabernacle for a shadow in the day time from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from rain.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
