Prepper Recon

The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy [is] understanding.

Proverbs 9:10

Today’s verse doesn’t get the attention it deserves. It’s paramount that we remember this verse and meditate on it’s meaning. Too many churches are presenting a seeker-friendly message meant to appeal to the masses and have completely glossed over the God who will some day judge the quick and the dead. Regardless of how good of a life you live, when you see Him face to face, you will have a whole new understanding of the fear of the Lord. Isaiah cried out, “Woe is me, for I am undone.” John fell at his feet as though dead, and when your day comes, you’ll be shaking in your shoes.

We don’t fear an angry God who is out to destroy us, at least not if we have repented and have been washed by the blood of the Lamb. However, we should have a very healthy respect for a God that is all powerful, all mighty, and so holy.

Electricity isn’t something we have to walk around in constant fear of, but it is very powerful and exceedingly dangerous if not respected. Would you fail to warn your children about sticking metal forks in electrical outlets because you don’t want to hurt their feelings? Of course not, but that is exactly what the apostate church does when it fails to teach about the consequences of sin against an all-mighty, powerful God.

And where has that brought us? As a nation, we have arrived at such a position that our people are filled with a false sense of security concerning God, his requirements, and his wrath. So what shall we do?

Let us all pray that God will bless America. But let us not pray for the temporary blessings of peace and prosperity that will lead us further down the path of false security, but let us pray for blessing to come as the fear of the Lord. Let us pray that He will guide us back to a place where His Word and his Way are respected and honored in this country, by any means necessary. Then, brace for the impact!

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!
