Yes, there is a famine coming -- both a famine of food and a famine of the word.
It is my belief, that if we are walking with Christ, even though famine may be going on, we will never go without. If you truly live for Him, he will take care of you. Nor should we fear end times. We should welcome the opportunity to see Him and his Glory!!!
Same can be said of persecution/tribulation. I’m continually amazed at the spirit of iniquity, for example, in that the body of Christ hasn’t already tossed the itchy-ear rapture bums out the door. These are perilous times and NOTHING is as it seems.
When a slick spirit of suicide tried to convince me to kill myself in Nov. 1996, I screamed out for Jesus and he appeared to me. My life has never been the same since. I asked the Lord to show me how Satan manages to deceive so many i.e. I wanted to know why the path to destruction is broad. He said, ‘Come with me’ -- which meant I had to come out of the system i.e. go off the grid. I sojourned for seven+ years in tents and other makeshift dwellings, usually in jungle settings, while the Lord showed me scam after scam, the deceptions of Satan, which revelations continue to this day.
Fear is a Satanic spirit that the Lord has not given us. Rather, the King has given his people the spirit of love, and of power, and of a sound mind. We are told not to worry about our food or our clothing. Why? Because the evil of today is enough to deal with already! My wife and I often remember the fact that the Word of God says nothing about a (permanent) dwelling place (which happens to fit right in with the biblical examples e.g. recall who also had “no certain dwellingplace”). In the first ten years since 1996, my wife and I have enjoyed at least 15 dwelling places at two continents. But God ‘s word has been true; we’ve always had plenty of food, never gone hungry. And plenty of clothing. I suspect we’re not to get ourselves attached to the mortgaged white picket fenced house (and our 2.3 children); rather, God comes first and foremost.
God has prepared you for the famine. He has warned you so you could prepare as the ant.
The Lord has clearly shown me, on three separate occasions, that I will be supernaturally provided for; I call them “manna visions.” However, this does not mean that God owes me, or you, his people, anything but a physical death (and yet still the right to the tree of life). For example, my wife’s friend has been told by the Lord that she will be killed for her faith. How’s that for a reality check? We’re all going to die, and I’m gonna try to make it the last thing I do, but how many of us have the “luxury “ of knowing how (and possibly when) you’re going to go out (other than a death row inmate)?
Read Foxs book of Christian Marters. Some times our death brings glory to God. Think of the witness you can have if you are the only one on your street that can share boiled wheat or corn when no one else has food!
Reading “Foxes” will blow you away; I very highly recommend that you read it ASAP. It will give you a much needed perspective. Everyone reading this now is living fat, even as most of you are in debt bondage. I would say this about debt: get out now, pay it off now, even if that means taking a loss. Asset forfeiture, not to mention debtor’s prison, is a reality today. Don’t wait until your back is up against your door with gov’t jack-booted thugs banging the other side, ‘cause then it will be too late. It’s nearly too late now. I’ve been at other countries. I’ve seen how 2nd and 3rd worlder’s live.
The Lord has shown me the situation and told me to prepare and provided the way for me to not only prepare but to prosper. I don’t know if such preparations will be for my family and me, or for someone else, and I don’t care to know. My role is to obey. I have left many preparations behind at previous dwelling places at other countries. The Lord undoubtedly has his purposes... If you don’t know what your purpose is in his kingdom, ASK him. Do it now, the hour is very late.
