Now, various disasters are happening one after another and spreading across larger and larger areas. Do you feel helpless, so that you constantly call on the Lord for protection? But have you ever thought: Could the reason God allows disasters to happen simply be because He wishes for us to call on Him and ask Him for His protection? Just what is God’s intention? How can we obtain God’s protection when disasters strike?
The Lord Jesus predicted, “But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be” (Matthew 24:37). We know from the words of the Lord Jesus that when people in the last days become as corrupt as the people in the time of Noah, the Lord will have already returned. Nowadays, many people are testifying that the Lord has returned. But after hearing this news, many people don’t take the initiative to seek and investigate, and they think that the Lord hasn’t returned because the great disasters have not completely come down. Therefore, God’s allowing all kinds of disasters to come down one after another is to remind us: The prophecies of the Lord’s return have been fulfilled, and the Lord has already returned. If we don’t seek the Lord’s appearance, undefined
follow God’s footsteps but miss the opportunity to welcome Him, then when the great disasters come down, we will weep and gnash our teeth.
Almighty God says, “In the vast expanse of the world, oceans silting into fields, fields flooding into oceans, over and over. Except for He who rules over everything among all things, no one is able to lead and guide this human race. There is no mighty one to labor or make preparations for this human race, still less is there anyone who can lead this human race toward the destination of light and liberate it from earthly injustices. God laments the future of mankind, He grieves at the fall of mankind, and is pained that mankind is marching, step by step, toward decay and the path of no return. No one has ever given thought to which direction such a mankind that has broken the heart of God and renounced Him to seek the evil one might be headed. It is precisely for this reason why no one senses the wrath of God, why no one seeks a way to please God or tries to draw closer to God, and what is more, why no one seeks to comprehend God’s grief and pain. Even after hearing the voice of God, man continues on his own path, persists in straying from God, evading God’s grace and care, and shunning His truth, preferring to sell himself to Satan, the enemy of God. And who has given any thought—should man persist in his obduracy—to how God will act toward this humanity that has dismissed Him without a backward glance? No one knows that the reason for God’s repeated reminders and exhortations is because He has prepared in His hands a calamity like never before, one that will be unbearable to the flesh and soul of man. This calamity is not merely a punishment of the flesh, but also of the soul. You need to know this: When God’s plan falls through, and when His reminders and exhortations are not repaid, what kind of rage will He unleash? It will be like nothing that has ever been experienced or heard by any created being. And so I say, this calamity is without precedent, and will never be repeated. For God’s plan is to create mankind only this once, and to save mankind only this once. This is the first time, and it is also the last. Therefore, no one can comprehend the painstaking intentions and fervent anticipation with which God saves mankind this time.”
