This
is the word that the LORD gave to me on today for not only myself but
for those whom HE has called and set into position to minister to HIS
people..."The Drought Is OVER"
This morning while sitting and
drinking my coffee it clouded up and began to rain again for the
umpteenth time since we got back from Texas...as I was complaining about
all the rain we have been having Gods' Holy Spirit began
to speak to me about the rain...the conversation went like this....Me: I
wish it would quilt raining so much. Everything is so saturated that it
is like a sponge that is full of water and is leaking everywhere...Holy
Spirit "You prayed for the drought to end"...Me: Yes I did....Holy
Spirit "Why are you complaining about an answered prayer"....Me:no
answer forthcoming...Holy Spirit " Open the front door"....Me: ok, man
its rainging like pouring water out of a bucket....Holy Spirit " Step
out onto the front porch"....Me: but its raining...and lots of
rain...its going to be cold as well...Holy Spirit "Step out into the
rain"...Me: let me get the umbrella...Holy Spirit "No just step out into
the rain"....Me: let me put on an overshirt first and I will be right
out....Holy Spirit "No just step out into the rain"...Me: I'm weeping by
now, ok Lord at Your Word I will step out into this pouring rain...Holy
Spirit " Step off the porch"...Me: ok, walking down the steps and onto
the pathway....Holy Spirit " Look around, what do you see?"....Me: rain
and lots of it....Holy Spirit "Look again, what do you see?"...Me:
puddles in the drive, big lake like puddles in the side yard to the
left, puddles in the grass on the right, creek overly full and rushing
by, pond across the street full enough to go over its banks...Holy
Spirit " Walk the property and tell me what you see"....Me: ok but I am
getting saturated with the rain...as I walk back down the drive Holy
Spirit speaks to me again to walk through a big puddle of water...no
problem...I step in and take two steps and mud clutches my flip flop and
holds it stuck....I have to reach down and pull it out of the thick mud
that was underneath the puddle...Holy Spirit speaks to me again " So
many of Gods' children have been stuck in compacted mud unable to go
forward in the things of God...the rain has come to free those caught
and trapped where they are"...Me:weeping I can only say yes Lord...Holy
Spirit " With difficulty you pulled your shoe out of the sucking mud.
But had it not rained and your shoe was in the dried mud it would have
been nearly impossible. The rain loosed the mud and you were able to
free your shoe quickly. So it is with my people who have been caught in
the compacted mud of situations in their lives. God has sent the rain to
loose His people." Me: thank you Lord, but what has that got to do with
me?...Holy Spirit " Glad you asked, God has sent HIS saturating Spirit
upon you and you have soaked HIM up like a sponge...every puddle, the
overflowing creek bank, the too full pond represents you...I have filled
you up, saturated you with MY presence in order that you help release
MY people from the mud of life...The rain indicates the flow of the HOLY
SPIRIT in your life....there is no drought in your life...I and I alone
have filled you will my SPIRIT....just like a sponge I will squeeze out
my anointing upon your life to those you come in contact with...but
unlike the natural rain as you are squeezed and used the oil of my
anointing will be released just like the widows oil was released until
she had no need of it...Me: yes, Lord use me until there is nothing
left....Holy Spirit " Let the rain of My Spirit fill you to overflowing
and be released into the atmosphere"...Me: Yes Lord...Holy Spirit " Tell
my people that if they will allow ME to saturate their hearts with MY
Essence their lives will be forever changed"....Me: Yes Lord...Holy
Spirit " Tell my people who are called by MY name and that I have
empowered with the rain of MY HOLY SPIRIT to release the oil of
anointing into the atmosphere so that a flood of MY SPIRIT is released
to those who are in need of a refreshing and release of MY SPIRIT"...For
I am releasing an abundance of rain upon those who are truly my
servants in this hour...not for personal gain, but to bring change into
the lives of those who have been caught in the quagmire of life...to
those who need salvation....to those who need deliverance...to those who
need healing....to those who are believing for a miracle...to those who
need fresh hope...to those who have cried out to ME but are unable
stand on feeble legs...to those who are awaiting MY presence in their
lives...As I have freely poured out MY SPIRIT upon you freely release MY
SPIRIT into the atmosphere and into the lives of those whom I send you
to...do not hoard that which I have given freely...as MY anointing is
released it will be replenished to overflowing...protect that which I
have given...protect, protect, protect...for I am coming quickly and no
man knows the hour or the day of My coming...even so prepare the way so
that no man is lost"....
