Friday Prophecy Post ......The Latter Rain



Jas:5:7: Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord.

Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth,

and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.

It is the rain that produces the harvest of the precious fruit of the earth,

which is the souls that will come into the Kingdom.

Lu:1:42: And she spake out with a loud voice, and said,
Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

Ro:8:23: And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit,
even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit,
the redemption of our body.
1Co:15:20: But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become
the firstfruits of them that slept.
1Co:15:23: But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits;
afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

There is a Latter Rain coming, it’s purpose is to produce the last days harvest.
Those that will come to faith in Jesus during these last days.
Elijah waited 3 and ½ years for the rain. He knew it was coming.

He knew , the Lord had spoken the Word. Now he had to wait for it to come to pass.


Jas:5:17: Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
 
After the 3 ½ year period, he began to pray for the Rain. In the “TIME” of the “RAIN” Elijah began to ask for the “RAIN”


De:11:14: That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn,and thy wine, and thine oil.

I am persuaded that we are in the “TIME” of the “RAIN”… We need to begin to “ASK/PRAY” for the Latter Rain. IT IS TIME . It is needed for the Rain produces the Harvest.
We are in the “Season” of the harvest, we need to begin to ask for the rain. The Lord is so beautiful, tender and full of mercy.
2Pe:3:9: The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

What incredible days we are living in …… God is Incredible and it excites me and encourages me
in my Spirit the exceeding Greatness of our Lord! He is coming ! Pray for the Latter Rain!
 
Love in Christ, Ella

Thank you for this timely post. So often we skim through life, without remembering the latter rain, and forgetting to pray for it!
