Luke 21:10-11 Part 1 of 2

Then he added, "Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, and there will be famines and plagues in many lands, and there will be terrifying things and great miraculous signs from heaven."

Then he added, "Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom."
2 Chronicles 15:5-6  "During those dark times (see verses 3-4), it was not safe to travel. Problems troubled people of every land. Nation fought against nation, and city against city, for God was troubling them with every kind of problem."
Isaiah 19:2  "I will make Egyptian fight against Egyptian--brother against brother, neighbor against neighbor, and city against city, province against province." [see all chapter 19] 
Mark 13:8   "Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in many parts of the world, as well as famines. But this is only the first of the birth pains, with more to come." [see also Matthew 24:7-8]
Revelation 6:3-4  When the Lamb broke the second seal, I heard the second living being say, "Come!" Then another horse appeared, a red one. It's rider was given a mighty sword and the authority to take peace from the earth. And there was war and slaughter everywhere.
 
"There will be great earthquakes," 
Isaiah 29:6  "I, the LORD of Heaven's Armies, will act for you with thunder and earthquake and great noise, with whirlwind and storm and consuming fire."
Revelation 6:12-14  I watched as the Lamb broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became as dark as black cloth, and the moon became red as blood. Then the stars of the sky fell to the earth like green figs falling from a tree shaken by a strong wind. The sky was rolled up like a scroll, and all of the mountains and islands were moved from their places.
 
"and there will be famines and plagues in many lands," 
Acts 11:28  One of them [the prophets] named Agabus stood up in one of the meetings and predicted by the Spirit that a great famine was coming upon the entire Roman world. (This was fulfilled during the reign of Claudius.) [see verses 19-30] 
Revelation 6:7-8  When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living being say, "Come!" I looked up and saw a horse whose color was pale green. It's rider was named Death, and his companion was the Grave. These two were given authority over one-fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword and famine and disease and wild animals.
