Meaning of shaking: To cause to move with quick vibrations; to move rapidly one way and the other; to agitate; as the wind shakes a tree; an earthquake shakes the hills or the earth.

There are approximately 18 verses about shaking. 

Shaking can take me in many directions... Our body trembles when we are cold or sick... The earth trembles with what we have identified as earthquakes... They can happen at any time, anywhere, even under the sea... 

Approximately 2 years ago as I sat in my favorite chair I felt this strange sensation of trembling... And my 4-year granddaughter came running out of her room. She was scared and felt the tremor as well... I thought no it can not be? An earthquake in Tennessee?  Little did I know they happen all the time. 

Here is a snapshot of today activity (March 4, 2021);  Tennessee, United States has had: (M1.5 or greater) 1 earthquake in the past 24 hours 7 earthquakes in the past 7 days; 29 earthquakes in the past 30 days;

That blows my mind... is it a warning of what’s to come??  

The Bible speaks of shakings. Does God allow the shaking of His children so they will wake up and take notice that there is a bigger beautiful picture ahead? 

I do believe many are hiding their heads in the sand, in hopes this day will never come...There are some that do not believe in our Creator's teaching... ? And claim it is nonsense!! And then there are some who know this day will come... because they know our Creator. And they trust our God, our Savior, and our King with all their heart, all their soul, and all of their mind... 

It is written in Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour no one knows.”. 

Some feel that God allowed Covid 19 to shake the men and women of our world. Was this disease like the earthquake?  Was it meant to shake souls? Was this another warning to wake up?? With each past day, the time of God's only begotten Son's victory is becoming more and more evident.  How much can we abuse our world? How much can we show hate and discord? 

Are we sick with fear? Do our bodies tremble?? Do we run like little children into His arms for peace, protection, and His mighty promise to love us through this earthly life and beyond !! He has given us a glimpse that there is a bigger picture !!! Heaven awaits for His chosen few. 

It’s Him, It has always been Him. He is the alpha and the omega. The beginning and the end... This life on earth begins and ends with Him.  But our spiritual life begins and never ends with Him!! He wows me!!! 

I pray you are shaken and not stirred. 

For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land. And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. (Haggai 2:6-7)

(Jesus speaking) Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. (Matthew 24:29)
