Mandatory Evacuation
by PamFord Davis
10/10/2016 / Devotionals
Life in the Sunshine State is not always paradise. Even there, residents have to face the reality of nature. In this case, that means the strong possibility of hurricanes. Their power and destruction is deeply embedded in personal memories.
Our family evacuated before the impending arrival of Hurricane Opal. We took warnings very seriously. A hurricane can level structures and devastate entire communities. We took no chances; we made our evacuation plans.
When leaving, we had to make rapid decisions. What would we take? What should we leave behind? We are often unaware of the grip possessions have on us. At the approach of a hurricane, priorities become clearer.
The Florida Department of Transportation & Walton County Emergency Management worked hand-in-hand. Evacuation routes were clearly marked. Locals and tourists needed to only follow instructions and evacuate to a safer location.

In the spiritual realm, a force more powerful than a hurricane is lurking
Evil forces and temptations are growing and gaining strength as they approach our homes, communities, states and nations. Do we see the coming destruction? God freely gave us His evacuation route! He made a way of escape.
"No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it (1Corinthians 10:13 NKJV)."
A reminder, hurricanes are named alphabetically.
Our way of escape is J E S U S, the Alpha and the Omega, A-Z!
