SEASONS OF LATTER RAIN

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 31

SEASONS OF LATTER RAIN

MAIN TEXT: JOEL 2: 23 Be glad then you children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain and the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.

DEUTERONOMY 11: 14 That I will give you the rain of your land

God likens human beings to the farmer’s crop which undergoes growth process: that starts from planting seeds to germination stage which is made possible by the early rains then to the maturity period and finally to the ripening stage or period occasioned/brought about by the last rains of the season also known as the latter rain. In the Bible context therefore, the latter rain represents the final outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon human beings which is God’s church to make her ripe for harvest. It is the end-time restoration of the Church and the harvest of souls. Rain is the medium through which manure or nutrients in the soil draw up to the crop through the roots. For us humans, our rain is the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit is poured out, he will direct a mental and emotional attention to God’s saving grace as it is seen in what Christ did on the cross of Calvary.

Dearly beloved, how ready are you for the coming of the Lord of harvest? The knowledge of the love and grace God showed to us through Jesus on the cross does it have any impact in your life? Have you allowed the Holy Spirit to soak you and supply the nutrients you need foe maturity and finally ripen? Do not cover yourself with umbrella or canopy, today you must allow the Holy Spirit to take over the entirety of your life so that he can teach you all things, lead and empower you to do great exploits even more than the early church did; set the captive free, preach with boldness, heal the sick, raised the dead and cared for the broken hearted. This is important to do so that when the Lord of harvest comes he will not find you with stunted growth or withered but will find you fully matured, ripe and ready to be harvested.

RECEIVE THE LATTER RAIN TO MATURE FOR HARVEST

PRAYER: Dear Spirit Divine, I surrender totally to your Lordship, lead that I may follow you all the days of my life.
