Prepper Recon

And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, [but] that ye break my covenant: I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you. And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.

Leviticus 26:15-18

Some verses are hard to expound upon. This is one of them. God is crystal clear about his intentions in this section of scripture and it needs no explanation.

However, I am always puzzled by Christians who think prepping displays a lack of faith. After reading Leviticus 26, I just sit in awe, wondering  how someone who believes such a book could actually not prepare. As I look at the state of America in the light of this scripture, my faith motivates me to try to be a little more prepared today than I was yesterday. As I consider the warning shots we’ve received in the past couple decades, such as 9/11 and the 2008 financial crisis, I wonder what is coming next. For God has said, “And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.”

My faith causes me to believe God says what he means and means what he says. And if you believe that verse, that he is going to punish us seven times more because we have still failed to hearken unto him, then you best start getting ready for it.

Whether you are a new prepper or a seasoned survivalist, I’d like to offer you a free PDF copy of my book, The Seven Step Survival Plan. It’s a blueprint for preparedness that will help you prioritize your efforts in getting prepared for what’s coming. It takes the fear and panic out of prepping and replaces it with a systematic approach to getting your family ready for the uncertain times ahead. Just send your request to prepperrecon@gmail.com with 7 Step PDF in the subject line and I’ll get it right to you.

Come back every Sunday for a new Prepper Bible Study! The most important prep of all is knowing GOD. Jesus said “what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his own soul?” Prepper translation: “What good will it do you to survive the coming economic collapse, nuclear war or even a zombie apocalypse if you don’t know you will go to heaven when you die.” A recent study found that 10 out of 10 people die! On that day we will meet our Maker. It only makes sense to be prepared for that day. Click here to learn more about knowing GOD.

Have a blessed day and happy prepping!

Mark

And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.

Exodus 28:36

In God’s instructions to Moses for Aaron’s attire, there was to be a golden crown that set him apart as holy to the LORD. Likewise, we are supposed to live lives that are set apart, as holy to the LORD. That has to come before any notion of relevance.

Yes, I believe that Paul was speaking of trying to be relevant to the culture when he said in 1 Corinthians 9, “I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. And this I do for the gospel’s sake.” We know that Paul went to great lengths in Acts 17  to reach the lost and to try to present the gospel in a way that the Athenians could understand it. Yet, never did he waiver in his condemnation of sin.

My fear is that too large a portion of the American church at large has sacrificed their HOLINESS TO THE LORD in trying to be relevant. If we lose our message of holiness, there’s no longer any need to be relevant, for we teach a false gospel that offers salvation without repentance. And that is a message which will solidify the damnation of those who believe it.

Pray that God will teach you to reach the lost around you without compromising your HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
