A SMALL PLAGUE OF LOCUSTS IS NOTHING COMPARED TO A VIAL PLAGUE
OF GREAT WRATH COMING ON THOSE WHO WON’T HUMBLE THEMSELVES
BEFORE THE ONE WHO DIED FOR THEM TO SAVE THEM FROM HIS WRATH!
HUMILITY BECOMES COMPLETE IN BELIEVERS AFTER SUFFERING AWHILE
WHILE THEY WAIT FOR THE CHIEF SHEPHERD OF ALL HIS LITTLE FLOCKS.

JESUS HUMBLED HIMSELF SO THE ONES HE SAVES MIGHT BE ABLE TO HUMBLE THEMSELVES BY YIELDING TO HIS SPIRIT IN THEM TO WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH AS HE CONVERTS THEIR SOULS TO HIS WAYS AND ATTITUDE IN THEIR DAILY WALK.
Philippians 2:13 – For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Exodus 10:3-6 – And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews, HOW LONG WILT THOU REFUSE TO HUMBLE THYSELF BEFORE ME? Let my people go, that they may serve me. [4] Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to morrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast: [5] And they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field: [6] And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.
Philippians 2:8-11 – And being found in fashion as a man, HE HUMBLED HIMSELF, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. [9] Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Revelation 15:8 to16:1 – And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled. [1] And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
The saved men and women, converted to humble little children of God by the indwelling Spirit of Christ after they are born-again, will return to earth at Armageddon with Jesus as being called, and chosen, and faithful.
Revelation 17:12-14 – And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. [13] These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. [14] These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are CALLED, and CHOSEN, and FAITHFUL.
I Peter 5:1-11 – The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: [2] Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; [3] Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. [4] And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away. [5] Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with HUMILITY: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the HUMBLE [6] HUMBLE yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: [7] Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. [8] Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: [9] Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. [10] But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. [11] To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
Matthew 18:1-4 – At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? [2] And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, [3] And said, Verily I say unto you, EXCEPT YE BE CONVERTED, AND BECOME AS LITTLE CHILDREN, YE SHALL NOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. [4] Whosoever therefore shall HUMBLE HIMSELF AS THIS LITTLE CHILD, the same is GREATEST in the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 23:11,12 – But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. [12] And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall HUMBLE HIMSELF shall be exalted.

In Cairo, residents burned tires to create a black fog to keep the locusts from settling in the city. Swarms were also reported to have reached Egypt’s Red Sea city of Zafarana, some 200 kilometers (124 miles) from Cairo, and then the Upper Egyptian city of Qena where locusts appeared in at least three major villages.
The Al-Ahram daily reported that since January, swarms of the insects – originating from Sudan – have been spotted along the Red Sea coast in south-eastern Egypt, north-eastern Sudan, Eritrea and Saudi Arabia.
In 2004, Egypt witnessed one of the most serious locust infestations in recent history, when farmers in 15 out of the country’s 27 governorates suffered extensive crop damage. The Egyptian Ministry of Agriculture issued a statement saying it had set up task forces to deal with the locust plague.
A professor at Cairo University’s Faculty of Agriculture said the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations warned of the locust danger last November, but the Ministry of Agriculture dismissed the warnings as rumors and refused to examine the issue.
Professor Nader Nur al-Din claimed that over the past few months he had also warned the ministry of the locust threat.
