Wildfires Ravage California

Luke 21:7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will all this happen? What sign will show us that these things are about to take place?” Luke 21:11 "There will be great earthquakes, and there will be famines and epidemics in many lands, and there will be terrifying things (that which strikes terror), and great miraculous signs in the heavens."

The years-long drought in California is causing the perfect conditions for wildfires like the two currently raging in Southern California.

A fire in Santa Clarity has burned over 350 acres so far and has forced more than 1,000 people to flee their homes.

“I saw a fire in my neighbor’s backyard. That’s when I said, ‘Okay, it’s time to go,'” one resident said. “The next thing you know, they’re banging on my door, get out, get out!”

Officials say that this year’s fire season is starting months ahead of schedule.

“Our fuel moisture is running about where we would typically see it in August. So right now we’ve got pretty volatile conditions, and as we start getting into drier weather, we’re gonna see a lot more fire activity,” Los Angeles County Fire Department public information officer Tony Imbrenda told CBS.

The largest fire, the “Lake Fire”, has burned almost 26,000 acres since June 17th and is burning into the forest toward Heartbreak Ridge.  The fire is about 19% contained and according to the U.S. Forest Service has cost $17.6 million to fight to this point.

Fire officials say they have been hampered by residents flying drone aircraft to get images of the fire.  Because of those drones, officials had to suspend flights dropping water or flame-retardants.

  1. Maybe I’m reading too much into this, but that being said, that date June17th is of particular interest.
    Some 52 years ago, the passage to ban prayer in Pubic Schools took hold on this nation. I heard that the average generation in the Bible is not the 4o that you’d think, but 52 years (from Adam to the New Testament). If that is true, then we are officially 1 generation removed from removing God from the schools. Literally 12 days later (the day this news headline is published), the Supreme Court has now finally replaced prayer with the next huge ruling 5 to 4 in favor of gay marriage. The place of beginnings where activities of gay couples are promoted is from the state of California, even though Massachusetts legalized it first. Well, that influence originated in both San Fransisco and Hollywood, making it a prime breeding ground for troubles like the fires.
    Interesting how “Lake Fire” sounds like Lake of Fire, God’s final judgment for those who reject Him. Also, there will be much heartbreak in the state as that named forest is in danger too.

    Of course we know that Climate Change is happening, yet not the way the news portrays it. God may allow this Climate Change to accomplish His purposes. Personally, I believe the HAARP with the Chem Trails and radio frequencies to cause manipulation of the weather is more to blame by far than Global Warming by greenhouse gasses.
