Often, we overlook many of the methods the Lord chastises our citizens due to the overwhelming cries of our sinful actions for justice. We often equate the consequences to acts of nature and quickly minimize many of the ways the Lord attempts to get our attention. The word of God speaks of pestilence in the land and Earthquakes in places not known to have experienced them in decades, droughts, floods, fires, storms, etc. Even the weather of the seasons of Spring, Winter, Summer, and fall are out of their normal order. The signs in nature and the signs spoken of in the Bible are evident and testify to his judgements and the birth pains preceding the impending time of his coming for his brides. Judgement, Correction, Removal, and Restoration begins in the household of God and then is extended outside of the house to nations.
