Survival/Preppers

Reading a series of books by Millie Copper called Havoc in Wyoming, I have really begun to understand what could happen. It is classed as 'cosy apocalypse' writing as I do not want to frighten myself too much nor do I want graphic or violent stuff. This is about a Christian family who are Preppers and how they and their community adapt to the situations after terrorists attack America. I am finding it compelling as well as full of valuable information.

I live in the UK and am not at all prepared! I don't have money and resources to do much but would welcome basic advice.
I respect those who are well prepared for catastrophic events, it is wise, although it is fascinating to read on the internet about extremely wealthy people who have built luxury bunkers just in case. That might be taking it too far?

Absolutely.
During the covid pandemic we saw how quickly things go downhill. Human behaviour is astonishing, the selfishness and aggression is only just under the surface.
Some degree of preparation is wise.

I've read a shutdown of between a few weeks and up to a few months is coming, probably with military lockdown. Similar to covid lockdowns, but instead of being beaten by the police if you breach it, you'll get shot by the military. It'll probably tie in with the Russia/NATO escapades and nuclear threats.

We should always be prepared to support ourselves with food and water for at least 30 days.

That's quite a bit of water.

Everyone should read about the 1942 Henan famine, or about famines in general. Or about the Great Depression.

There is really not much you can do. Even then we ourselves could potentially become monsters; this should be a bigger concern than fending off outside monsters.

I was going to start a thread similar to this one too. I think we are in a lull before the storm, but God only knows. The great reset that they have planned is a serious combination of events to do at very minimum the following.

A. Eliminate the federal reserve note/ US dollar of it's value. By doing so, they..

B. Eliminate the middle class. By doing this, they have defeated their competition and military opposition.

C. Bring about more major attacks on infrastructure, energy, transportation agriculture and fuel.

D. Impose martial law permanently as they ...

E. Begin WW3

A THROUGH E ARE THE CATALYSTS FOR SATAN TO BRING ABOUT WORLD DOMINATION.

He then brings about "world peace" as the false man of peace...

There's much more to be said, but that's enough for now. I have the solutions but need the time, energy and help to be able to apply them, by God's awesome grace. If anyone is to become my helper, she will have to agree to my goals and purpose.
I have a Master and His Name is the LORD Jesus Christ.
We must plan to survive this so we can continue to lead as many to Jesus Christ as possible. Regardless of any assistance , I want to become a healthy, productive soul winning machine until the Lord calls me home. People's everlasting souls are all that will really survive the wrath of God when we leave this place. May those of us who are believers work towards those goals.

That's quite a bit of water.

It is, and storing that much water does present real problems. For two people, the contents of your hot water heater may be enough. There are also water purification systems available that are inexpensive. A small portable generator may allow you to operate your well pump if you are off-the-grid for few days. Some people also install a small hand pump on their well to use when/if power goes out.

We don't have a well, we don't own land. But all these are practicality. We could improvise.

In the novels I am coming across so many American words and terms I am unfamiliar with and I am learning a lot just looking things up. One day these ideas could be crucial.
