Our God is a God of Preparation. This was John's message in the wilderness. It's the promise to the prophets who hear His voice (Amos 3:7). Before every great Revival, the Lord will prepare a people and a place.
The room was filled with excitement and holy anticipation as we worshipped! Even the angels were dancing with us!
Sister Marianne testified during the worship she felt drops of "rain" on her hands. At first she thought it was water leaking from the roof. However, when she felt her hand, it was dry. As she pondered about it, she felt it again and again - gentle rain drops on her arm, then shoulders. She knew that God was not only present but His Presence was tangible! Wow! Another sister also testified of feeling "rain" drops on her hand thinking it was a leak in the roof! Let the former and latter rain fall Lord!
"Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God; For He has given you the former rain faithfully, and He will cause the rain to come down for you - the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. The threshing floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil." Joel 2:23,24
Note: The feast times are in accordance to Harvest times in Jerusalem. During Passover, it is the harvest of barley. They give thanks to Yahveh for the former rain that will come to prepare the ground and the latter rain that will eventually bring in the harvest. Praise be to God. May your threshing floors be FULL of wheat. May your vats OVERFLOW with new wine and oil!
