Isaiah 17:10-11. Part of Isaiah's warning to Damascus. They have a forgotten the God of their salvation, the Rock of their refuge. Therefore, though they plant "and set out slips of an alien god," and though the plants grow and blossom in the morning that they have been sown, there will be no harvest. It will flee away "in a day of great and incurable pain."

Our worldwide harvest is drying up - inflation, famine, food shortages, shortages of other things, unrest, and corruption are making it harder and harder to live comfortably and in peace. I do believe that this will get worse - to the point of very great suffering - since we too have forgotten the God of our salvation.

There reaches a point of no return, a point when you just can't fix all of the things you have broken with your sin. I think as a country we may be there, I think other countries in the world are definitely there, I think it is possible that the world is quickly approaching that point. The sin, the lies, the corruption, and the misery they have caused are all so great that we are now standing on completely rotted foundations. There is nothing to hold us up. Not to mention the mountain of dead babies that our system in the West is built on (why do you think large companies are paying women to vross state lines for abortions!). 

We can and must repent and turn back to God, but even that will not prevent the time of great suffering that is coming, we have gone too far in our sin. It just has to happen at this point - a complete ruination so that something clean, holy, and new can rise from the ashes. And it will, it always does, and it will be wonderful, because God has promised us that.
