FUTURE GOALS

Watch and pray. Make a plan and get organized. Figure out your priorities.

If the money system collapses, if the economy crashes, or if the electrical grid ceased to function, would you be able to care for your loved ones, your neighbors, or your friends? What about employer-enforced vaccinations? If you reject the mandate, you get fired. In the age of cancel culture, you could lose your social media communication or choose to cancel it. You could lose your payment processing or banking functionality.

Are you questioning your priorities? God, family, job, money, neighbors, church, etc. What is number one on your list? If God is number one on your list, then the rest will come easily. He will protect you, if you follow Him and His leading.

To survive in all situations, for as long as possible, doing the most amount of good that we can do is vital. We need to share the Gospel with everyone we can, to help them get prepared. If we live in the countryside, we can gather proper equipment and supplies, and get educated on gardening, hunting, and water purification. We can live off the land. If we live in the cities, we can have a neighborhood group to create a plan and store supplies. Having a Plan B for each lifestyle is also important. Maybe city people will need to go to the countryside. Maybe people in the countryside will need to bug out. To leave a home for a safe location would be really difficult. A bug-out bag, for everyone, is important. By giving thought to these ideas, proactively, we have the luxury of time to prepare. Reactively, we could make mistakes and not have what we need for our future. If we think of scenarios of what might happen, we can plan for viable, functional solutions.

Our goals need to change. For some, spending money on materialistic things is not really a good idea at the moment. Learning to repair items will educate us and help us spend less money. Growing food and learning to preserve it will be a good skill. Can we remember what our grandmothers taught us? We need printed materials with safe instruction. The food preservation supplies also run low and we can't find them when we need them. We have to get things in advance, and on sale, if possible. We aren't talking about hoarding all at once, we are talking about buying a little extra of everything every single time we shop. This is prepping. If money is not useful, trading will be. What will people consider valuable? If we have those items, we can trade for things that we need.

Are we about tobe forced to live in a subculture, or suffer an attack from a foreign nation, or get attacked by terrorists from within, or are we about to go to war? Life is much more complilcated than the distraction of current society and who likes us on social media or who doesn't. It isn't about fashion or looking perfect in a selfie. None of that will really matter, if the future gets really crazy really fast. Proactively plan for your future.

 

Matthew 6:33

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Matthew 22:37-40

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Matthew 24:42-44

Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

Matthew 24:4-8

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Revelation 1:3

Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

Revelation 13:15-18

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. 16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
