With Impending Hurricane Isaac at the Coast - Louisiana Governor Not Happy With Obama
Posted by L A on Wednesday, August 29, 2012 Under: Storms
President Obama declared a state of emergency in Louisiana yesterday, after Louisiana's Governor Bobby Jindal requested the declaration and financial assistance to Louisiana in the wake of hurricane Isaac. The White House informed Jindal of the decision by phone. The state of emergency makes federal help available to save lives, and protect the health, safety and property of citizens. This is something FEMA is supposed to do in such an emergency anyway.
After the phone call, Jindal sent a letter to Obama late Monday to thank him for his declaration, "however, the state's original request for federal assistance...included a request for reimbursement for all emergency protective measures. The federal declaration of emergency only provides for direct federal assistance," reported Fox News.
This afternoon, Obama made a public speech to residents of Louisiana to heed warnings issued by government officials, to evacuate and take all precaution; "this is not a time to tempt fate." It sounded like a "damage control" statement to me.
If Jindal wants the federal help the state of Louisiana really needs, he should get a few Muslims in the neighborhood to make public pleas to Obama, or possibly tell Obama that several mosques and Muslim families are in the path of hurricane Isaac. Those announcements are sure to get Obama's attention, but I'm afraid nothing else will, unless he relents because of the upcoming elections.
In the event you aren't aware of it, hurricane Isaac is slated to hit the Louisiana coast on exactly the seven-year anniversary of hurricane Katrina, which hit the Louisiana coast on August 28, 2005, exactly seven years ago to the day. From a prophetic standpoint, that doesn't sound good at all, for such a storm that is. For Christians, it is a great number. It is important to be on the right side, God's side, of that number 7!
The prophets wrote thousands of years ago about destructive storms hitting the earth in the last days. Isaiah wrote, "Behold, the Lord has a mighty strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand" Isaiah 28:2
The Word of God tells us that, "The thing that has been is that which shall be, and that which is done is that which shall be done, and there is no new thing under the sun" Ecclesiastes 1:9. History tends to repeat itself, at least until the Lord returns. On top of that, seven is the perfect number of completion. Isaac is a massive hurricane.
Louisiana has spent $8 million on some protective measures, but the critical factor is, have they prayed? Certainly it isn't going to be how much money they have spent on security alone, which is good, but not "all inclusive." Isaac should be hitting Louisiana about now and I hope they are praying. They need our prayers too for the safety of God's people there, and for the salvation and safety of those who don't know the Lord, the base source of our help in the time of need.
