More than 32,000 people have evacuated their homes after a raging wildfire doubled in size in the City of Colorado Springs.  Traffic congested the smoke-filled streets as people evacuated the city and the nearby US Air Force Academy.  Evacuation orders cover most of the Colorado Springs and there are approximately 800 firefighters battling the fires, which have spread across 15,324 acres of land and it continues to spread extremely fast.  The weather conditions are unfavorable, hot, dry and windy.  The fires have been fanned by 65 mph (104km/h) winds. 

Fires are raging in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Alaska.  To date, there are 40 wildfires raging in the midwestern part of the United States; it is literally afire. 

We have fires every year during fire season, but not at this magnitude.  As with storms, disasters and animal deaths throughout the world, the fires are raging, just as the Word of God forewarns.  The warnings are being issued by Almighty God, precursors of much worse to come.  This nation has forgotten God, as a whole, and it will "languish," but God would have the nations repent, pray and ask for mercy.  "The land will mourn and everyone who dwells in it will languish, with the beasts of the field, the fowls of heaven, yes, the fishes of the sea will also be taken away" Hosea 4:3.  The Bible also says one-third of the trees and all of the grass will be burned up during the great tribulation period, and these fires are just forewarnings, "The first angel sounded and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood and they were cast upon the earth, and the third part of trees were burned up and all green grass was burned up" Revelation 8:7.  If you are unprepared to stand before God in judgment, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website.  God bless you.
