I hope many here are prepping for 2022-2023

@Ronald Nolette I do love the promise of Genesis 8.22: "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."

Awesome promise! But that does not mean we will not see shortages, bad crop years like the past two years, supply problems, distribution problems, or pandemics that idle tens of thousand of workers in food production, thus creating shortages and price hikes. I am more concerned over the price hikes taking place. IN America we will have food, but as nearly all have seen , the supermarkets' are showing more and more bare shelves or spotty quantities of many items.

I love the old preacher's advice about faith: If you are in the middle of a lake in a row boat and see a big storm coming, trust in God and row towards shore!

People need to have some true wits about themselves if it were to get really nasty it’s gonna take more that a couple hundred cans of food and a can opener.
Our static level where I’m at is only about 18 foot below ground. We have two wells that yield about 40 gpm.

Of course, it will. But one will need those couple hundred cans of food for the nutritional part of survival. I have a well with 30gpm, and a generator and stashes of other essentials once the economy crashes.

Hoarding food isn't going to keep anyone safe, especially from God's wrath. Look at what happened in Exo. 16. The Israelites tried to hoard more manna than they actually needed for the day, and then they woke up the next day to the smell of rotten manna and seeing worms crawl around in the manna they put so much effort into amassing.

I also highly recommend a look at Jesus' parable in Luk. 12:15-21 where He warns against hoarding. The man in this story put too much focus on amassing food and other material possessions, and God took all of that away by ending that man's life. Jesus then concluded the entire story by saying whoever focuses on hoarding instead of being faithful to God will meet the same fate as the man in that story. That was a guarantee.

A famine of biblical proportions is certainly coming to America, and the hoarders will no doubt experience what the man in Jesus' story did because they won't have God's protection. The recent tornadoes and hurricanes should've taught professing Christians who are focused on doomsday prepping that God can take their possessions or their life away from them in a heartbeat. God provided for Elijah and other followers in times of famine, and He will surely do the same for anyone else whose focus is primarily on being obedient to Him and not acquiring material things.
