Famine???

My sister said at church last night her pastor said there is no prophecy given in the Word about a famine in the last days.

He referred to the scripture as in the days of Noah, there was eating and drinking and being merry.

He also referred to this scripture in Amos:

Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:

And I do agree there is definitely a famine of the Word even though people have more Bibles in their homes than ever before.

But what about these scriptures?

Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?


Rev 18:8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong [is] the Lord God who judgeth her.


They are in the new testament also.

I think this was in regards to people prophecing that a famine is coming and he feels that can't be.

I also have to say, we believe we are in the endtime now and there is famine in the earth in different places.

We are blessed it isn't in America. But some believe America is fixing to experience it as well. I hope they are wrong.

But I was wondering although the scripture that says they were eating and drinking in the days of Noah, doesn't mean EVERYONE was, IMO. But as a society that was the norm.

So do you agree that there can be no famine in America?

Is there a scripture that says no more famine?

Although my flesh would love to believe he is right, I don't think that is true.

What is your opinion?
