Mount Redoubt erupted at about 1:30 pm Saturday and the eruption shot ash about 45,000 feet into the air, officials said.  The volcano erupted four times on Friday, shooting ash about 51,000 feet into the air.  The eruptions are the latest in a series that began March 22, 2012. 

The Alaska Volcano Observatory has set the alert level at red, the highest possible.  Alaska airlines cancelled all of its flights on Thursday and limited flights to and from Anchorage on Friday.  After Saturday's eruption, Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport closed, but reopened again on Sunday. 

The Word of God tells us that in the last days, "I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath, blood, fire and vapor of smoke" Acts 2:19.  The recent and frequent volcanic eruptions throughout the world may have something to do with this prophecy. 

The many, many signs are before us, friends.  It is time to pray, and if you don't know the Lord, if you aren't saved, it is time to seek God and come to know Him.  Are you ready to stand before Him, are you saved?  If not, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page.  Salvation is simple - it's only a prayer away.  Jesus loves you and His arms are open wide to receive you right now - today!  God bless you.
