Acts 2
19 ‘AND I WILL GRANT WONDERS IN THE SKY ABOVE
AND SIGNS ON THE EARTH BELOW,
BLOOD, AND FIRE, AND VAPOR OF SMOKE.
20 ‘THE SUN WILL BE TURNED INTO DARKNESS
AND THE MOON INTO BLOOD,
BEFORE THE GREAT AND GLORIOUS DAY
OF THE LORD SHALL COME.
Recent pictures on the news got me thinking about these scriptures.
I was asked, “Are these things happening in California signs from God?”.
And I would have to say emphatically yes based upon these scriptures.
We see clearly before the day of the Lord that certain signs will precede it.
#1 Lets start with Blood:
Since 1999 we have witness a global outpouring of blood upon the earth.
According to Jewish source in Israel on ‘SEPTEMBER 11, 1999, WAS THE YEAR EVERYTHING CHANGED AND THE BEGINNING OF THE JUDGMENT OF THE NATIONS’ .
The significance of September 11, 1999, a year before the beginning of the jihad war in the Middle East and two years before the attack on the Twin Towers.
As a reminder, September 11, 1999 was Tishri 1 on the Jewish calendar, or the first day of Jewish year 5760.
Now we learn that September 11, 1999 (which began year 5760) "was the year everything changed and the beginning of the judgment of the nations." There were many things pointing to year 5760 as one of the most important days in history; for example:
With this particular year, according to credible scholars we may have an unprecedented confluence of three of the most profound events in all history:
(A) the end of the sixth millennial days of creation and beginning if the seventh; (B) the end of the second millennial day since Christ's birth and the beginning of the third; and (C), the Jubilee year (50th anniversary) of Israel officially declaring Jerusalem its capital on January 23, 1950, and shortly after Israel's own Jubilee year, both no doubt of great prophetic significance.
2. The gematria, or letter/number equivalents of the Hebrew language, for the words SIX
DAYS multiplies to 5760 and also the words THIRD DAY multiplies to 5760 (both with extra
zeros). The statistical improbability of such an outcome must be astronomical.
Creation was in six days. Six days X 24 hours = 144 hours. If these six days were a type of the 6,000-year earth lease, and assuming 1 hour = 1 generation, and 1 generation = 40 years, we have 144 X 40 = 5760!
As you can see that since the year 1999, BLOOD has been a very common sight in our news.
The spilling of BLOOD is a very real fact when you think of Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, Somalia, Bosnia, Lebanon, Israel, Chechnya, Pakistan, Rwanda and of course the many murders they take place daily all across the world. Today, Blood is being poured out on the whole earth.
#2 FIRE
With the recent news in California we see and hear people describe this fire as
'Worst fires I've witnessed in my 30 years'
I work in San Diego and was astonished by the amount of smoke along my coastal ride south on the train to work. Many of my co-workers are not at work as we have at least of half of a dozen in just my department of 30 who have been evacuated from their homes. I left early due to uncertain transportation back to the train and when I arrived at my home in North San Diego County (near Fall-brook) I'm looking at smoke from fires up here as well. These are the worst fires I've witnessed in my 30 years living in California. While many people are affected, our emergency services were as prepared as best they could for this disaster.

Faced with unrelenting winds whipping wildfires into a frenzy across Southern California, firefighters conceded defeat to an unstoppable force that has chased more than 500,000 people from their homes. It is the biggest evacuation in California' history, from north of Los Angeles, through San Diego to the Mexican border. Fire crews said they could do little more than prevent new spot fires until the shrieking Santa Ana winds subside and that is not expected for at least another day. ''These winds are so strong, we're not trying to fight this fire,'' said firefighter Jim Gelrud. ''We're just trying to save the buildings.''
SOME USES OF FIRE
My favorite use for fire is: Communication - signaling
To me it is obvious He is trying to signal our attention, much like He did Moses.
#3 VAPOR OF SMOKE
It is interesting to discover that “VAPORS OF SMOKE” are found in all Volcanoes.
Also interesting is how many volcanoes have blown their tops recently.
The abundance of gases emitted by volcanoes varies considerably from volcano to volcano. However, water vapor is consistently the most common volcanic gas, normally comprising more than 60% of total emissions during a sub-aerial volcanic eruption.
Again, another sign that He is trying to get our attention.
I say it again, it’s about time we learn to:
-KEEP LOOKING UP-
