Some people believe America is due for judgment quickly. Is it? I can't say for certain, but this much Ican say.
The Dow Jones had been going down substantially before a rally, as have
other markets, and this could continue. America has so much debt even 3 years ago the very respected Forbes Magazine ran an article asking if America was bankrupt.. More importantly, America
is morally bankrupt on a number of fronts. I won't get into what, because the key is to occupy till Jesus comes.
How do we do that? The key is not to focus on the future by
worrying about it, but to focus on the present and let the Holy Spirit
guide you.
Remember, the Spirit lives in each believer. You are sealed
by the Holy Spirit, and He lives in you, the moment you trust Jesus
Christ to forgive you of your sins, calling on him by faith and asking
him to do so.
The next key is to share Christ salvation with everyone. It
is vital to have a good testimony. If you are harboring sin, pain, or whatever
in your heart, give it to the Lord and let Him take care of it. He wants
to help you like this, because he loves you. He loves all of us. It's
just that that personal relationship with Him can only exist if we have
Him living inside us.
When you share Jesus Christ with others, it is important to
have the words to share what God has done in your life. It doesn't have
to be some amazing thing. Just that you feel more peace since you've
known him, or that He helped you in a certain situation, or something
like that. Here is a great little video on how to do this.
Remember the Bible reveals God is the God of all comfort(2 Cor. 1:3-5),
he will provide a peace that passes understanding(Phil. 4:6-7), He will supply wisdom
whenever you need it(James 1:5), and many other things. He lets you build treasure
in Heaven where moth and rust cannot corrupt and thieves cannot break
forth in steel. In other words, treasure that will never grow old, wear
out, or become useless.
God is a personal God, He desires a personal relationship with each of us.
There are many other things you can share with people which
will allow them to see they can follow Jesus Christ and know that He
will never leave them or forsake them.
But, what about this debt, or this Shemittah some talk about? Or the blood red moons?
First, we are to rightly divide the Word of Truth.(2 Tim.2:15) We must never expect that God will use the same thing to signal Israel than He will to signal a Gentile nation like ours, because He works specifically with His people in ways He doesn't with others. Even regarding Israel, there is no guarantee that something will happen. It could, as some scholars believe, but it's just as possible these only fulfill Luke 21:25-26 as far as peoples' hearts failing them for fear. It doesn't have to be something as dramatic as the rapture, even - the Iran nuclear deal could be what we look back on and know was the big thing.(Also, that doesn't mean war is imminent there. Look at 1492 as an example - Jews were expelled from Spain, but communication and travel logistics means they were not likely all out for several years afterward. So, war between Iran and its allies against Israel as prophesied in Ezekiel 38-39 could still be years away.)
No, we must focus on other thigns in the United States. And, there are many signs of decay. However, the best advice it not to panic or hoard everything. It is to trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all they ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.(Prov. 3:5-6) He knows what will happen and when or whether a large earthquake, volcano, etc.. His Holy Spirit will guide you. It's just important to remember not to act based on fear, but on faith. He has give us a spirit of lvoe, peace, faith, etc..
So, if after much prayer you feel led to do something like sell your stocks, too it - but don't bury it in yoru backyard and yell "the sky is falling" like Chicken Littel. Instead, recognize God's will and that His ultimate will is seeing souls saved, and go out and share Him with others.
Because, in sharing Him while having confidence that God will get you through, those who are afraid will wonder what's different about you and you can then share how that relationship with Jesus gets you through everything, just as He gets me through everything with the handicaps I have. Because our goal should be to make Him know and to love one another, for they shall know we are Christians by our love. And, if you have concerns, give them to Jesus. And, you can always go to Jesus2020.com with questions. And, you can learn how to be a spiritual leader here, too.
