The world is fascinated by the “prophecies” of modern “prophets” like Nostradamus, Edgar Cayce, or Joseph Smith. But their predictions have invariably proven to be vague, at best, and completely erroneous at worst. And they are always “discovered” after the fact. Unlike the prophecies of the ancient Bible prophets who named names and dates centuries in advance and have never been wrong.
As the world hurtles toward the end of this Age, we have the plan already laid out for us. And it’s written — straight from God Himself — with unmistakable clarity and detail. As Peter described it, “…we have the prophetic word made more sure (than the testimony of an eyewitness) to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place….” (2 Peter 1:19, NASB)
Bible prophecy is built on the certainty of God’s foreknowledge of what evil men will choose in the circumstances and events He places before them. This is why only God’s prophecies given through His chosen prophets are 100% accurate.
So don’t despair about events you see unfolding around you. It’s going to get rough, but our Father has provided ample warning for us through His prophets and His Word. He’s also given us “instructions” on how to prepare ourselves for these days.
More importantly, He’s given us this promise: “Fear not, for I am with you. Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” (Isaiah 41:20, NKJV) No matter what happens in our near future, we can count on every word of that promise.
