“He said: "I am going to tell you what will happen later in the time of wrath, because the vision concerns the appointed time of the end.” – Daniel 8:19

In October 1994, after spending 11 years and $8 billion searching for ways to keep the Government running after a sustained nuclear attack on Washington, the Pentagon shelved the “Doomsday Project”. It was a plan as an antique of the cold war, military officials familiar with the program say. The Doomsday Project sought to create an unbreakable chain of command for military and civilian leaders that would withstand a six-month nuclear war, which was regarded as a plausible length for a controlled conflict. "That was the requirement: six months," said Bruce Blair, a former Strategic Air Command officer assigned to analyze nuclear war plans in the early 1980s. "And at the end, we had to have a cohesive chain of command, with control over our remaining nuclear forces, that would give us leverage over the Soviets."

With the demise of the project, Blair said: “They are realizing these requirements are throwbacks to the cold war. They are not relevant to today's world.”

Time will eventually end and an eternity with the Lord will arrive. Today in prayer, praise the Lord that He is coming and we will spend eternity with Him.

“The message of the entire Bible is that God has been working throughout history to redeem creation….That plan is spelled out throughout the Old and New Testaments until the Bible finally ends in the book of Revelation with a redeemed society dwelling on a new earth that has been purged of all evil, with God dwelling in the midst of his people. This is the goal of history; this is God’s great plan.” – Keith Manry

God’s Word: “For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.” – Habakkuk 2:3
