There has been some focus placed on July 20th as a possible economic/monetary event that might affect us all. These days, anything could happen. The complexities that have been created by man have increased to the point where any aspect of the current system could fail, or caused to fail by some nefarious plan implemented in order to bring us into further subjection. It is my hope that this chatter is simply another mind-generated suspicion without any substance. However, I would rather be prepared for such an event than be a day late with regret.
The American economy continues to weaken. Our latest trek to the Alabama coast confirms that belief. We have been going down South for the past 38 years and have a good feel for the economy based on the crowds or lack thereof. Restaurants are no longer packed, traffic was not as heavy, and the beach was not overcrowded except for July 3rd and 4th. People are cutting back in all areas. Food prices are going through the roof and gasoline prices were in the mid to high $3 range. We’re growing accustomed to the new price levels.
In the past, the solution to America’s economic woes focused on war. People are weary about another war at this time. A false flag event could take place in order to sway the population into yet another major conflict.
Since the 2008 meltdown, the banking system has not improved at all. On the contrary, it is more fragile today than ever and the big banks have increased in size and concentration. Their political funding has once again paid off in spades. At the same time, the middle class is shrinking. This group was the economic engine to keep the economy growing. Consumption continues to decline and the true statistics reveal this reality. This is why one must be aware of the possibility of an act of desperation by those in control.
In such a complex world, what can you and I do? My long-term solution comes from Above, not here at the worldly level. In Scripture there were 13 recorded famines. Mankind brought on these famines. Our Heavenly Father had the solutions to the famines then as HE does now. HE knows that a Remnant will intercede for mankind and HE will sustain that Remnant while the rest of the world goes through whatever judgment necessary to once again balance the scales. Jesus’ ministry occurred during the occupation by Rome yet He had no problem in rallying resources as needed to minister to the hungry. Should we expect anything less now?
The noise of the current system can be deafening if you let it. Each of us should enter into our “closet” and focus on hearing Our Father’s Voice. HE will guide us through whatever lies ahead. If something major does happen on the 20th, those who rely on Our Father will be the examples for others to see and emulate. We will be the calm ones in the midst of the storm.
