dead birds and fish...

well I am a firm believer as the word says.. there is nothing new under the sun.. anything that is happening.. has already happened or been thought of...

as I do not normally read or watch any news... I today found out about dead birds everywhere and apparently fish too... so as is my answer to everything.. I go searching the bible... and this is the scripture I find...

Zephaniah 1: 3 “I will sweep away both man and beast; I will sweep away the birds in the sky and the fish in the sea— and the idols that cause the wicked to stumble.” “When I destroy all mankind on the face of the earth,” declares the LORD, 4 “I will stretch out my hand against Judah and against all who live in Jerusalem. I will destroy every remnant of Baal worship in this place, the very names of the idolatrous priests— 5 those who bow down on the roofs to worship the starry host, those who bow down and swear by the LORD and who also swear by Molek, 6 those who turn back from following the LORD and neither seek the LORD nor inquire of him.” 7 Be silent before the Sovereign LORD, for the day of the LORD is near. The LORD has prepared a sacrifice; he has consecrated those he has invited.

the bible tells us that the most irritating thing in the world to God is for us to put something or someone above Him... I think most of us tend to put ourselves before God.. not that we don't love Him and worship Him... but when it comes to a choice of us being uncomfortable or ridiculed or whatever it is... we will tell God.. surely you don't expect THAT from me... what will people say?

God couldn't care less what people say.. the One we truly need to be obedient to foremost is the voice of the Lord...

as birds are falling out of the sky.. and fish are dead in the water... I suggest we truly examine ourselves and determine if we are truly following what God wants us to do... I would prefer to be invited to the sacrifice as one of the ones that the Lord has invited and consecrated.. surely not one of the ones to be sacrificed for idolotry and disobedience...
