MILLIONS AT RISK AS CATEGORY 5 TYPHOON HEADS TOWARD OKINAWA, JAPAN

Excerpts taken from Weather.com

Typhoon Neoguri’s winds have reached about 150 miles per hour, earning “super typhoon” status from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC), reported Weather.com.

Typhoon Neoguri is supposed to hit Okinawa, Japan, by Tuesday morning. The Japan Meteorology Agency (JMA) has issued their highest warning against the onslaught of this category 5 typhoon.

480,000 people have been advised to evacuate to a safe shelter in Okinawa. Residents have been warned that the storm surge could reach about 7 feet and off shore waves up to 46 feet, and to prepare for the worst.

The Word of God tells us that these types of storms will rage upon an evil generation in the last days,

“Behold, the Lord has a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to earth with the hand” Isaiah 28:2.

“He commands and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up the waves thereof. They mount up to heaven; they go down again to the depths; their soul is melted because of trouble. They reel to and fro and stagger like a drunken man and are at their wits end. Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble and He brings them out of their distresses” Psalms 107:25-28.

The Word of God also tells us that the Lord’s mercy endures forever (1 Chronicles 16:34). If people will only humble themselves before the Lord in times of distress and cry out to the Lord for salvation and mercy, the Lord is merciful and He will save. However, people are often destroyed because they don’t acknowledge the Lord, or even bother to call upon His name.

Sometimes the innocent, and even the righteous are taken, sparing them from worse evil to come (Isaiah 57:1).

We are headed for more perilous times ahead and severe storms, according to Bible prophecy, as we approach the return of the Lord.

Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. Your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.
