Job 38:34-35

34 Canst thou lift up [ruwm] thy voice [qowl] to the clouds [`ab], that abundance [shiph`ah] of waters [mayim] may cover [kacah] thee?

35 Canst thou send [shalach] lightnings [baraq], that they may go [yalak], and say ['amar] unto thee, Here we are? KJV-Interlinear

34 'Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, So that an abundance of water may cover you? 35 'Can you send forth lightnings that they may go And say to you, 'Here we are'? NASB

There will always be skeptics out there, and there will always be charlatans trying to deceive and separate you from your money and/or freedoms.

And here is to all of the would be rain makers, or those who presume that they can command the lightning.

So, raise your glasses high and salute to the heavens. Command as you may, but all you'll get is whatever is in your glass, and nothing more.

No rain dances, no incantations, no sacrifices of virgins or babies to the rain gods. No storm dances, no wishes of evil on ones enemies, no voodoo etc. None of these, and we will add to the list, nothing of human imagination or act can cause, alter, change, prevent, force or do anything to the various activities of nature.

These are all under Gods control, and no one else's.

These verses signify the absolute control over the things of nature, and the things of this universe, which God maintains for Himself. God is sovereign.

Raise your arms, call on the wind, do whatever it is that you believe is within your power and you will accomplish nothing.

Do anything, apart from Gods will, that is to say, do anything from the perspective of mans own effort and work, and nothing will be accomplished. Nothing that is except a tendency toward screwing things up more.

Whenever man attempts to regulate nature, or anything, which is beyond his realm, then the results will be to throw one imbalance after another into the scheme of things which God has already made provision for.

Your own life is the best example that anyone can come up with. Trying to do anything on your own, outside of Gods will for your life, will end up in futility. The biggest trouble with all of this is that you will never discover it until you have died and gone before the Lord, and then, your understanding will be very real to you. But too late, of course.

These things are close to home. But man cannot command the lightning, cannot bring it into his own hand as an obedient dog, and command it. Man cannot command the rain to begin or to stop, nor control its overall output.

This past winter, the snow fall in the mountains is three-hundred to five-hundred percent above average. Why is that? What caused it?

Now is the time to post a prayer.
