The Great Earthquake: Prophecy and the 1755 Lisbon Disaster
Prophecy foretells signs heralding Christ’s return. Revelation 6:12 speaks of a great earthquake, a darkened sun, and a blood-red moon. History fulfilled this vision in 1755 when the Lisbon earthquake shook Europe, Africa, and America. Tremors shattered Algiers, swallowed whole villages near Morocco, and sent sixty-foot waves crashing onto the coasts of Spain and Portugal. In Cadiz, mountains trembled from their foundations while ninety thousand lives were lost that fateful holy day. Even today, earthquakes, tornadoes, and floods remind us that seemingly random disasters carry a higher purpose. They call us to awaken to our spiritual danger and prepare our hearts for what lies ahead. Prayer Our Father in heaven, thank You for Your warning signs and for guiding us through every trial. Help us recognize the times and stay ready for Your return. Bless our families, our health, and our finances so we may testify to Your goodness. In Jesus’ name, Amen. Share your testimonies and prayer requests with our team. We’re here to lift every need before the throne of grace. Adapted from a Maranatha publication.
