I'm sure that you are already praying fervently for the earthquake victims across China. Just to encourage you that I am coming into agreement with EVERY prayabout members' prayers for them, and asking God to exponentially increase the effect of our combined praying, so that His power will be released to maximum potential, along with the medical and aid agencies combined efforts.
Following so closely to the cyclone tragedy in Burma (Myanmar) and with the news today that Mount Etna is erupting violently for the 5th day running, I ask you to pray that God will open the eyes of millions across the world to understand that these natural catastrophic and spectacular events are further "signs of the times" that herald the imminent return of Christ (see prayers below.) This is the worst earthquake in China for over 30 years, and (as in the rest of the world) earthquake activity there in the last century has been significantly greater than any preceding century.
There is an INCREASE and ESCALATION of these and other events prophesied in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21 that can no longer be ignored!
May God bless ALL who pray +++
THANKS FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS AND COMMENTS BELOW. SORRY THAT I HAVE NOT GOT AROUND TO RESPONDING TO EACH ONE INDIVIDUALLY. THE BEST BOOK THAT I HAVE FOUND ON THE "PAROUSIA" (Return of Christ) IS "WHEN JESUS RETURNS" by REV. DAVID PAWSON, the English minister who baptised the British singer, Cliff Richard. It is the most thorough and balanced work I know, but should be more a reference book, rather than a cover-to-cover read! Other worthwhile, scripturally-based books are "AS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH" and "HASTENING THE RETURN OF THE MESSIAH" both by Danish pastor, Johannes Fascius, who I conducted a meeting with in 2000, when he visited this area. Also, an older book called "THE LATE GREAT PLANET EARTH" by two authors whose names escape me. Finally, not to forget "APPROACHING HOOFBEATS" by BILLY GRAHAM, written 24 years ago! (About the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.") O.K., happy reading!
AFTERSHOCKS REPORTED WITH MANY INJURED AND AT LEAST ONE DEAD. PLEASE CONTINUE WITH YOUR FERVENT PRAYERS. I KNOW THAT YOU WILL! GOD BLESS+++
Dear Lord our Saviour, our protector, and our hope. I pray for the people in China that their days bring brighter tomorrows, that the people who have been hurt or lost loved ones be healed through Your loving heart. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
Just to let you know, one of the counselors at the school I work at (I too am a school counselor!) is from China. She has recently earned her doctoral degree and LPC license. She went the end of May to work with the people there who may possibly be experiencing short-term or long-term PTSD over this devastation. I pray, too, for God to use her skills to bring healing to many of His people in China. God bless you for all your caring for others!
LORD PLEASE CALM YOUR LAND IN CHINA. WE HAVE LOST SO MANY LIVES THERE AND SO MANY ARE HOMELES. MAY THEY CONTINUE TO GGET AID FROM ALL OF THE WORLD TO DECREAS THEIR SUFFERING, HUNGER, AND LACK OF SHELTER. SHELTER THEM FROM WIDESPREAD DISEASES, IN JESUS NAME.

Heavenly Father, it is so easy to get caught up in our daily lives. God, China is special to you. You love the people there no less than you love others. I know that your heart is with them. Father, help us to not only see and hear what is happening in far away places, but to remember to pray for people with heartfelt compassion in these places. God, please let there be people who go to China to minister to the people in a loving way. Let everything done demonstrate your love for the people there. In Jesus name. Amen.
I wonder how similar Islam & Christianity is. We also believe that current activities are the Major sign of Christ’s (Peace be upon him) imminent return. In Islam we have some authenticate Hadith ( Hadith= Last Prophet Mohammad’s word Peace be upon him) about Christ’s (Peace be upon him) imminent return.
In Islam we know & respect Christ (Peace be upon him) as a Prophet. In Quran ; the holy book has many words about Christ (Peace be upon him) even a whole chapter is named as Mary (Peace be upon her).
Please don’t misunderstand me I just want to share my views. Actually I was searching for some article in the web about “Major Sign of hours” after the 2 most devastating natural calamity that’s occurred very recently. And I found this forum. That attract me as I thought we Muslims are the only who should be aware of the Signs. But I was wrong. Christians are also aware of the Signs. So brother pray. May ALMIGHTY GOD Show us the right path . Amen.
