The Earth may be literally crying out that we are nearing the end of the age.
A Daily Mail report noted that thousands of earthquakes went unnoticed close to the Yellowstone Volcano. This discovery was made by scientists utilizing AI to “listen to 15 years of Yellowstone recordings.”
What they found was shocking.
As the report discussed, the research team found “86,000 tiny earthquakes that human experts had missed. That’s about 10 times more quakes than anyone knew were happening.” This extreme number of unknown earthquakes points out something deeply prophetic within it. Earthquakes are repeatedly mentioned in Scripture as associated with the end of the age. Haggai 2:6-7 tells us:
For thus says the Lord of Hosts: Once more, in a little while, I will shake the heavens and earth, the sea and dry land. And I will shake all the nations, and they will come with the wealth of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of Hosts.
Matthew 24:7 also reads:
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines, epidemics, and earthquakes in various places.
These thousands of earthquakes, then, are more than just a strange occurrence: they are a sign of the birth pains before the return of the Messiah.

The report further noted that over half of these earthquakes occurred in “connected groups called swarms,” which are “caused almost entirely by hot underground water and steam pushing through cracks, not by rising lava.”
By collecting this data and mapping it, it was ultimately found that Yellowstone is a continuous “heartbeat” of these water-based swarms. With no direct abnormalities regarding the pattern of these swarms, Yellowstone appears to be safe at this time from any potential eruptions.
As the world shakes beneath our feet—literally and spiritually—we are reminded that Jesus warned these signs would intensify as His return draws near. The earth is groaning, the nations are trembling and the hour is late. Now more than ever, believers must stand firm, lift their eyes and anchor their hope in the One who is unshakable.
