Ask for rain. Ask for more rain
Why You May Be Limiting the Flow of Holy
Spirit's Power in Your Life
James W. Goll
"Ask rain from the Lord during the season of the
latter spring rains. And the Lord will make the storm winds; and He will give
them showers of rain; all will have vegetation in the field" (Zechariah
10:1).
Ask for rain. Ask
for more rain.
And then ask again for, "More, Lord!"
When
the rain of God's presence begins to fall in a manifested manner, you don't
just stop there, do you? No! You must persist and ask for more.
How much of the Holy Spirit do you want?
How much of His presence can you handle? How hungry are you?
The
depth of your hunger is the length of your reach to God.
Ask
for rain.
One of the primary Scriptures prayed
throughout the revival pages of history is this particular passage from
Zechariah 10:1.
This
scripture urges us — no, it compels us — to believe God for something bigger
than we have ever dreamed or conceived.
God
has a big
dream in His heart.
He wants to the see the earth filled with
the "knowledge of the glory of the
Lord, as the waters cover the seas" (Habakkuk 2:14).
Many of us have pushed some of the greatest
prophetic promises of God into the millennial age or even the eternal
hereafter.
But
the Holy Spirit is urging some of us to think big, ask big and plan big.
Some
of us are being rearranged in some of our thinking and we are crying out to the
Lord to bring some of what we projected only for the future into our now.
Join me and thousands of other hungry,
radical believers who "Ask for Rain
in the times of the Latter Rain."
Check
out the new Ask for the Rainbook with
chapters by Bill Johnson, Michael Brown, myself and others.
We
want to see you equipped to pray, strategize and implement cooperative efforts
to see the greatest harvest of souls and movement of the Holy Spirit in Jewish
and church history!
Let's labor together to see the "lamb of God receive the rewards for
His suffering."
Ask
for rain!
It’s amazing how far a little
inspiration, encouragement and even challenge can go to help you break through
old ruts and places of stagnancy in your spiritual life. Stir up the fire in
your walk with God today!
