The Days of the Lord: Lessons from Joel

In this video, we explore the concept of 'days of the Lord' as illustrated in the book of Joel. From locust plagues to modern events like 9/11 and COVID-19, these significant days remind us of life's fragility. The speaker contrasts natural disasters with divine interventions and explains how Joel interprets such events as calls to return to God. The video also delves into prophetic imagery and the significance of repentance and salvation. Special attention is given to Joel's prophecy as a bridge to the New Testament, emphasizing the importance of making the right decision in the 'valley of decision.'
