our prophecy update, but first I wanted to make a couple of comments.

Doubtless you heard about the shootings yesterday, first in El Paso, Texas, that left 20 dead

and many injured. So this morning, I don't know if you heard, but some 13 hours later,

there was another shooting in Dayton, Ohio that left 10 dead. That's the death toll, at least,

as of this morning before I left to come to church and then again many others wounded.

Now this sort of does tie in with a little bit of what I want to talk about in today's

prophecy update but I do want to say that the world right now more than ever, I believe, is looking for hope and for answers.

And we have the answer and we're to give to everyone an answer of that hope that lies within us.

I was just talking with our police officer on special duty out front

and he mentioned this to me and I told him that I would comment on it. But please pray for the first

responders who come on a scene like that.

I mean, first of all, they're putting their lives on the line, but they witness the horrific nature of something so evil.

And certainly, as the Lord puts it on your heart, pray for these families.

I mean, and even those that are in a hospital today, some of whom are probably clean to life,

pray that they will make a full recovery and then the emotional aspect

of it, the psychological aspect of it.

And then thirdly, also pray this.

As this world waxes more and more evil seemingly by each passing day, I was just talking

out front before the service, that it's going to get worse.

It's going to get worse.

We know this from Scripture that in the last days these perilous times are going to come.

So my prayer very specifically is that what is meant for evil, and this is evil, this is pure evil. What is meant for evil, God will
