I CAN HEAR THE SOUND OF RAIN!

I have a short word of hope and encouragement to share with you today.. 

I woke up earlier this week and I felt something I haven’t felt in years..

Like the fresh smell of rain in the distance. I could actually smell it and my spirit began to burn with excitement yet it didn’t make sense. 

Like Elijah’s servant seeing the cloud the size of a man’s hand on the horizon. 

What’s coming? I didn’t feel fear. I felt hope. Change. Courage. A new chapter rolling in. 

Drought turning into a downpour. 

Jezebels curse breaking off the land after a showdown on the heights. 

Whooooooooooosh… the sound of wind rolling in over the desert plains and the four winds rushing around the decommissioned and those in spiritual death. 

It doesn’t make sense. Wars. Rumors of wars. What is coming Lord?

I can hear the sound of rain. Coming to wash the land and usher in revival. 

I feel the morning dew on my feet of a new day dawning after being in midnight for so long…

And I feel like we are coming out of a dark winter. Winters death. 

And right now I can see the tired old casing that had been spiritually resting on us lifting. 

The old mantle. The old cocoon. The wandering in the desert. The long and hard battle that has seeped into our skin and worn us down little by little. Burnt out. Used up. Exhausted… dead even. 

But I could see for the first time a muscle coming to the surface. A fight and a stamina I haven’t felt in years. A ferocity humming under the surface of the deep. 

Brrrrrrrrrr. Like tremors unsettling the debris, ashes, and rubble that we have collected. 

Old warriors rising.. 

The disillusioned rising with new eyes and un-yoked from the past. 

Yes, winter has passed. Springtime has come. 

A ripening is here. Hunger is here. Awakening is here in the worst of moments for it to come by natural standards. But that’s when it rolls in and does the most damage against darkness. 

Like Jesus waking up Lazarus who was 4 days dead, God right now is waking up his church. 

Chaos surrounds us in the earth but if you’ll ascend the hill of the Lord you’ll see it - the season has changed. 

You are coming into a new day, out of defeat, apathy, robbery, and putting on strength, hope, and clarity in Jesus name, and God is turning dead bones army back into an army of hope carriers and storm breakers again!
