THE HORSES ARE COMING… WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO? Don’t be derailed!
Jeremiah 12:5 If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses? and if in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst, they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?
REVELATIONS 6 RECORDS THE FOUR HORSEMEN THAT ARE COMING AT THE END OF THIS AGE…
1. WHITE HORSE… He is the lamb. He has a crown, he conquers, he has a sword.
2. RED HORSE… He takes away all peace, war, anger and death.
3. BLACK HORSE… Death follows the war and destruction that the red horse left… He has a BALANCE IN HIS HANDS… shortages, high prices, don’t hurt the oil and wine… rich people.
4. PALE HORSE… Death follows the taking of peace, war and destruction, famines, shortages and pestilences.
THE CHURCH SHALL ESCAPE… ( No time here to develop this!)
Luke 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
THROUGH OUT THE BIBLE GOD HAS ALWAYS USED FAMINES AND PESTILENECES TO WAKE UP HIS PEOPLE. These too will be used in the last days and the Bible warns us that that PEOPLE REFUSE TO HEED THE WARNINGS. They will make these tools a joke and a laughing matter.
