If you've been paying attention to the news lately, I'm sure you are aware of the increase of strange animal deaths all over the world. At the bottom of the note I've included a timeline of these events, but I truly believe this is the reason why. Jesus instructs us in Luke 12:56 "You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time?" I believe that much CAN be said and much SHOULD be said on the phenomena that is occurring in nature as a prophetic sign of what's occurring in the spiritual realm, but for the purpose of this note, I don't want to go into great detail, I'll simply give you a scripture from Hosea 4:1-3 which mirrors the spiritual reality of our world today, especially America. At the bottom, read the list of animal deaths that have occurred in the past few weeks of 2011. We are in a critical juncture as a nation, this is the hour to come before the Lord in repentance.



"Hear the word of the LORD, You children of Israel, For the LORD brings a charge against the inhabitants of the land:“ There is no truth or mercy Or knowledge of God in the land. By swearing and lying, Killing and stealing and committing adultery, They break all restraint, With bloodshed upon bloodshed. Therefore the land will mourn; And everyone who dwells there will waste away With the beasts of the field And the birds of the air; Even the fish of the sea will be taken away." - Hosea 4:1-3



These type of revelations are not things we should brag about, or tell others as if we are some sort of incredibly insightful person, it should be brought forth with tears. This nation is standing on the brink of a terrible disaster, which ironically in contrast to the way most people understand the ways of the Lord, is actually merciful of God. We need a major wake-up call in this nation. As Joel 2:1 states "BLOW the TRUMPET in ZION, and SOUND an ALARM in my HOLY mountain, let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the Day of the Lord is coming." this is the hour for the kingdom of priest ( the church) to rend their hearts and not their garments. We must seek the Lord while He may be found, for the Lord delights in mercy, and relents from wrath. For those of you out there who remain indifferent about the hour in which we live, I would question whether you truly know the Lord, because in this hour the BRIDEGROOM IS SHOUTING to the church, to COME OUT OF BABYLON!! Psalm 96:11-13 "11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof. 12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice 13 Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.



All of creation is GROANING for the church to be the Holy People of God, emerging in His authority and Power, ushering His kingdom to the earth.

This list doesn't even include the hundreds of dead aligators and turtles in a river in Brazil or the octopuses I posted about yesterday. This is not normal animal deaths. . .something is going on and it probably has something to do with the earth shifting on it's axis. God does use nature to do His will. Afterall, it's His creation.
