As you all know the Economy isn’t looking so hot right now.  For the past year and a half things have been rolling down hill for majority of the Nation.  Spending time in prayer and studying I feel like God has revealed some things to me that I would like to share with you.

First off He took me to Job 37:13

Whether for discipline, or for [the good of] his earth, or out of mercy, he makes the storm appear. (GWT)

Now this Vs. Refers to Natural storms declaring clearly why God brings them to Earth.  But I feel like God is also doing this in the Spiritual. For all 3 reasons, Discipline, Good of the Earth, and Mercy.  I really think God is doing this shakening to get our focus back on Him. And to live the lives pleasing to Him.

I really feel a huge reason for this Shakening is falls under the Mercy Category.  In Judges it talks about how the Lord promised the Isralites(Gods chosen People) blessings and Prosperity favor and authority in the Promise land.  After Generations time of Moses and Joshua you see that the Isralites quickly turn their backs on God, and follow other gods and idols.  Quickly other Tribes take control of the Isralites forcing them into Slavery.  It then it says the Israelites prayed and cried out to God for mercy for him to rescue the Israelites from their captors.  God shows compassion and remembers His promise and  rescues the Israelites, and provides for them a Godly Leader to help lead the charge back to the way God had intended.

I feel that the stat America is in now is because we as a society have turned out backs on God. Whether it’s idolatry, love of money, rebellion, hatred etc.  Forcing God to do whatever is necessary to get our focus and priorities back on him!  As Churches all around the nation have cried out for His Mercy and to rescue us I Believe God is on the MOVE!

I honestly Believe that all this shakening is for the good.  The possible collapse in the Economy Bring it on! Am I crazy? Did i just say that? You bet.  See my God is a living breathing God and He has everything worked out for my good.  Romans 8:28.  So I feel through this shakening He is realigning the church into the Proper stat of the Promises God origionally intended for us to be in.  He is making Kingdom Minded leaders put into wealthy positions.  Having many new people come back to him, by changing minds and softing hearts!  He is making opportunites and opening doors No Man could ever OPEN!
