Those much smarter than me want to follow the bread crumbs to China. Coincidentally, if you listen to the conspiracies swirling in the blogosphere, China is also tied to the shutdown of the New York Stock Exchange earlier this week. (Could the 4-hour halt at the NYSE have been a preventative measure against a cyber attack?) Of course, government officials will tell you there's nothing to the rumors ... and, by the way, there was no connection to the computer "glitches" over at United Airlines and the Wall Street Journal, either. Having trouble with cell phone outages? Just look the other way; it was nothing.
And, oh yeah, just ignore whatever the conspiracy nuts are telling you about a "space war" among China, Russia and the U.S. There's no need to look at the possibilities that satellites can be utilized to become EMP weapons. That's just some science fiction theory. And there are still those who say it is all a buildup to that unexplainable date of July 15th for the equally perplexing "exercises" called Jade Helm.
I'm sorry, but I have no explanations and no answers. The world seems to be caught up in a spiraling vortex of economic catastrophes (think Greece) and threatening cyber-security issues, as we rush headlong towards a nuclear Iran.
Do I really want God to show me the truth? Because, to be honest with you, it looks a whole lot like the Book of Revelation is about to play out. If the world's super powers are really playing chicken with satellite EMPs, then how long before one of them decides to take the big dare and we are plunged into a new reality that none of us want to see? And how can we possibly feel secure in light of all these reports?
For those of us who are followers of Christ, we know that there is no security in this world except that which is certain in our salvation. But if we are looking for freedom from danger; or desiring stability; or hoping for safeguards against a world that is coming ever closer to the revealing of the Anti-Christ, then I'm afraid we need to face the facts. And they are right in front of us ... it is happening nearly every day.
Yes, He loves you enough to have given His life for you and to have taken the punishment for your sins. But what is about to come upon the earth will cause Him to leave Heaven and wage war against the wicked. If your name has not been written in the Book of Life, He will not claim you as His own. We all need to search our souls and cleanse them from any unrighteousness, and get prepared to get in the fight -- and to lead others to make the right choice. Today, we are feeling a little less secure because of all the attacks against the world's infrastructure. Tomorrow, we could feel the full force of the Enemy's attacks against our very existence in this world. Now is the time to anchor ourselves to the Lord. No one can snatch us out of His hand. He is our firm foundation, and we can be secure in our position; both here on earth and in eternity.
Job 11:18 "And you will feel secure, because there is hope; you will look around and take your rest in security."
