Revelation 7

1. And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
2. And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3. Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.

I know when many people speak about the events which occur during the Tribulation as described in the Book of Revelations the generally give the 4 winds a pass through mention. I think that is a grave mistake considering the simple fact winds can easily destroy many things. Whether in the form of tornadoes or hurricanes 🌀 and typhoons, winds can and do have catastrophic effects.

What do these Scriptures tell us? I believe at the point mentioned, the numbering, that after that not only mega storms and tornadoes will erupt but events with straight line winds will become a norm during this period.

Imagine the affects if the wind streams that move our weather patterns dipped to surface level, without storms, just out of a clear blue shy we begin encountering 175+ mph winds. Winds would devastate entire communities and areas, all because it is part of the Lords judgments.

Most probably hold a pretribulational view, I hold a prewrath view myself, believing Christians will see most of the so-called Endtime and that the rapture will occur near or before the last year or so of the Tribulations. Just my personal thoughts there.

Bless God and have a blessed day.
