Quake After Quake

And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.  Revelations 11:13 KJV 

Wikipedia denotes that all over the world, in this year of 2020, there has been 10,973 earthquakes.  

The majority, 9,522, were of a 4.0-4.9 magnitude. 

The highest magnitude noted was in the 7:0-7.6 range and there were 7 of these.  

There have been 77 fatalities overall.

When you hear about them and see the pictures of the devastations on the news, it is a very frightening experience.

All we can do is thank God that it wasn’t  any worse than it could have been.

A true wake-up call to make sure we have our lives in order.

In this verse of Revelation, many of  people witnessed the earthquake, which caused a panic amongst the survivors.

They were so frightened that all they could do was give glory to God by acknowledging His power.

Unfortunately, many will acknowledge the power and might of the Lord, but still not repent of their sins.

A WORD OF PRAYER

 Lord, as Revelations tells us, You have a divine way of disclosing to us the things relating to our existence.  May we not find ourselves caught up in the things of this world, forget about Your Word, not repent of our sins and get the rude awakening because of an earthquake in our lives. Praying and thanking You for the Revelations.

In Jesus name we pray, Amen
