US Plains States Brace for Violent Storms
Posted by L A on Wednesday, March 21, 2012 Under: Storms
AP: Residents and businesses from southeast Texas and north through western Missouri braced for flooding Tuesday after a violent band of storms brought heavy rain, hail and at least one tornado, with more of the same forecast for the next several days. Police officers in Wagoner County, Oklahoma warned drivers to get off roads. Heavy rains, strong winds and at least one tornado wreaked havoc in the plains. Parts of Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas have flash flood warnings in effect. In Texas, the National Weather Service says a tornado touched down Monday evening outside San Antonio, damaging several homes. In Oklahoma, officials say damaged power lines knocked out service to about 100 homes and winds blew the roofs off of a couple of barns. Emergency response personnel are bracing for more flooding.
Commentary: Severe weather is in the forecast as we near the return of the Lord. Jesus said, "There will be great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever will be" Matthew 24:21. The Word of God tells us that the Lord is the same and He does not change, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever" Hebrews 13:8. Many people do not want to hear the truth, they want to continue in their sin, without being warned. Nevertheless, the same things that made God very angry, as explained by the Old Testament prophets of the Bible, are the same kinds of things that make Him very wroth today, such as infanticide, the killing of multitudes of unborn babies, many killings used as a form of birth control, rampant pornography, Godlessness everywhere (God isn't allowed in the schools, workplace, in government buildings, etc), corruption throughout the world, killings, torture and mayhem - all make God very angry. The Bible says, "When He utters His voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens and He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; He makes lightnings with rain and brings forth wind out of His treasures" Jeremiah 10:13. "Thus saith the Lord, I will rend it with a stormy wind in My fury and there will be an overflowing shower in My anger, and great hailstones in My fury to consume it" Ezekiel 13:13.
