African Horn in 'worst drought' in 60 years

Prophecy Sign:  Frequency of  drought and famines to increase all around the world as the last days approach

What strange times we live in.  While some areas of the world are seeing record floods, other areas are being parched.  Droughts and the effects of drought, that being famine, is definitely one of the sure signs that we are in the last days of this dispensation, and near to the time of Christ's return to this earth.

Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains. Mark 13:8 NIV

I will lay waste the mountains and hills and dry up all their vegetation; I will turn rivers into islands and dry up the pools. Isaiah 42:15 NIV
