Ask ye of the lord rain in the time of the latter rain; so the lord shall make bright clouds of rain to every one grass in the field.
For the idols have spoken vanity and the diviners have seen a lie, and they told a false dream; they comfort in vain: therefore they went there way as flock they were troubled because there was no shepherd. (Zech 10 vs. 1)
There is no doubt that we are in the last days, every occurrence is revealing to us that the scripture is being fulfilled, likewise the deception of the enemy has caught up with the elect of God, many people feet have slip off the faith to an extent that they have given themselves to idols, falsehood, diviners. –
Since the so called shepherd have not even given themselves to the ministration of the word and prayer, the sheep are troubled, because they no longer enjoy the peace of God. Although it seems everything is going well in the physical, but their hands have been soiled in iniquity.
When I look deep into events that surround us, I see in the spirit a state of spiritual decay ness and total drought ness.
It is obvious that revelation of God’s word is very scarce and there are no more giant in the faith to weep before the altar. Every body is busy building their own kingdom, the anointing is no longer fresh, the fire has quench.
What we see and hear is human driven ambitions, not God purpose driven vision.
Many years ago I warn about the consequence of bringing the ambition of men in place of the vision of God, today it has breed desperation and greed for wealth and materialism rather than Godliness, good character and deeper fellowship with God.
Deut. 11 vs 13 – 17:
And it shall be that if you earnestly obey my commandment, which I command you today, to love the lord your God and serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Then I will give you rain for your land in it season, the early rain and the later rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine and your oil.
And I will send grass in your fields for your livestock, that you may eat and be filled.
Take heed to yourselves, least your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other gods and worship them.
Least the lord’s anger be aroused against you, and he shut up the heaven so that there be no rain, and the land yield no produce, and you perish quickly from the good land which the lord is giving you.
Friends, there is no man that have sound relationship with God in the scripture that was not blessed. People like Abraham, Isaac, Daniel walk with God and became mighty in the land, in fact Daniel became great in captivity, Isaac flourish in the days of famine. (deut. 11vs 14)
Then I will give you rain for your land in it season, the early rain and the later rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine and your oil
God promise to give us rain in due season, which means abundant of both spiritual and physical blessing, on the platform of adhering to the word of God and obeying the voice of God. (Deut 28 vs. 1—2, lev 26 vs. 4)
Deut 28 vs. 15, 23, 24.
“ But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all his commandment and his statutes which I command, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you.
“ and your heavens which are over your head shall be bronze, and earth under you shall iron.
“the Lord will change the rain of your land to powder and dust; from the heaven
it shall come down on you until you are destroyed.
This is exactly what is happening in the world today, the economy of powerful nation are collapsing, many are loosing their means of livelihood.
Even though the physical rain is causing havoc and great disaster, the heaven is close spiritually, the heart of people are far from their maker, Man has lost the direction.
Sometime ago the former president of America, George Bush alerted the Americans about the imminent danger of the collapse of their economy.
If every body is not on board to do something, the way out is spiritual awakening
It’s time to turn back to God, in a very genuine repentance and ready to follow instruction.
O lord, i know it is not within the power of man to map his life and plan his course (jeremiah 10:23)
I wept profusely recently when the lord told me that many leaders, especially spiritual leaders have lost their time of devotion to anxiety, pride and lust of the flesh.
If you are in this situation, it is time for you to return to the place of your altar and make an out cry to the living God to deliver you from decadence and dryness.
Sow for yourselves righteousness, reap in mercy, break your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the lord, till he comes and rains righteousness on you. (Hos 10 vs. 12)
I believe this is the due season when he will rain upon you and your family. You shall increase spiritually, physically, financially.
