Russian Wheat Harvest Declined 33% Last Year

Bloomberg – Jan 17, 2011

Russia’s wheat harvest was 41.5 million metric tons in 2010, the country’s agriculture ministry said, citing the state statistical service, Rosstat. That was down by a third from a year earlier.The overall grain crop fell 37 percent in 2010 to 60.9 million tons after drying and cleaning, following the worst drought in at least 50 years in Russia. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-01-17/russian-wheat-harvest-declined-33-last-year-government-says.html

Jesus foretold on a time of famines as part of “the beginning of sorrows” (Matthew 24:7-8), and the Book of Revelation (16:8-11) tells of a time of even greater disturbances during “the Day of the Lord”. These will go beyond what normally have occurred in the past century. World events are aligning towards the fulfillment of biblical prophecies.

Now there is good news as ultimately, God’s kingdom will come and those issues will be gone (Revelation 7:16). But a terrible hour of trial is coming first (Revelation 3:10).

As Jesus said:

37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch! (Mark 13:36-37)

Food shortages are something to watch.

Tougher times are coming. And for some parts of the world these tougher time may be here now. People who can prepare, should. Both spiritually and physically. And this will not only affect people in places like Russia–the Anglo-descended nations will themselves suffer hunger and famine.
