There is a global storm brewing, and it looks on the outside like civil unrest, cultural revolution, government corruption, tyrannical oppression, and societal breakdown, with a pandemic thrown in for good measure. But the root cause of this storm is spiritual, and so must the solution be.
From studying God's Word, we understand the big picture. We see the signs of the times and we fully trust in God's plan. Now it is time for biblical Christians to live each day with prophetic urgency. As it says in Romans 12:11-12, "Keep serving the Lord, rejoicing in hope, enduring in distress, persisting in prayer..."
In these prophetic days, are you frightened and losing hope? Or are you staying strong in Christ Jesus? It's either one or the other. It can't be both. When we dwell in God's Word on a daily basis, it fills our spirit with strength and hope for any trials that come our way.
When it comes to studying end-times prophecy, there are books, blogs, and Bible studies beyond number. This is our attempt to take a step back, look at the big picture, and share some signposts that can help us identify where we are on the biblical, prophetic roadmap.

God used Isaiah to proclaim some of the most well-known passages in the Bible about the Savior of the World. God can use us, too, for His divine purposes.
