2 Chronicles 7:14
King James Version (KJV)
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Yeah, something like this happened in the days of King David of Israel, and he sought the Lord’s advice. God gave him an answer.
Yes, God is not happy with America!
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways. Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the LORD. Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the LORD of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house. Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew, and the earth is stayed from her fruit. And I called for a drought upon the land, and upon the mountains, and upon the corn, and upon the new wine, and upon the oil, and upon that which the ground bringeth forth, and upon men, and upon cattle, and upon all the labour of the hands. (Hag 1:7-11)
I agree. Although we have had droughts before, I remember 1988 for instance, there is no doubt in my mind that God’s anger against this country is burning.
We got some rain in Ohio over the weekend. The areas that got the most of it were the areas where the Amish live. Seriously.
Is this a claim that the bible supports the Glowbull warming crowd?
Amen. IMHO the US is going thru an Old Testament “shaking” because our nation was founded with the proclamation that it will grounded in God’s laws and teachings. Unfortunate our nation strayed. In 2001, 9/11 is our first shaking, the financial implosion in 2008 our second shaking, if we do not change 2015 will be our next shaking. Each shaking will be worst then the last one and all will stop if we go back to God. Our country has gotten worst morally. Outlawing religion, promoting gay rights, we have accelerated away from God even faster. If we do not repent God WILL let this country fall!

Start at verse 12 to get the context.
