The Empty Grocery Shelves

10/11/06               
 

"I was in a supermarket buying groceries when suddenly I looked at the shelves and they were empty.  There were other items available such as cleaning and washing liquids, clothing and appliances as well, but all the food items were gone." 

Interpretation:
 
I believe there will be a food shortage coming to America and to the whole world in the near future.  I do not know what will trigger this, perhaps an economic crisis, a terrorist attack, a natural catastrophe or all of the above; but it will cause a shortage of food in this nation, and mass starvation in many other countries.  God's people need to prepare accordingly, and take the necessary measures.

Acts 11:27-28 “And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch. And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit that there should be great famine throughout the entire world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar.”

Deuteronomy 8:3  “And he humbled you, and allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna, which you knew not, neither did your fathers know; that he might make you know that man does not live by bread only, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord does man live.”

Matthew 24:7-8 “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows”

Revelation 6:5-6 "And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on it had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see you hurt not the oil and the wine."
