So which one are you?
Are you someone who just gets wet when it rains?
or
Are you that one special person who actually feels the rain drops as they splash down upon their face and smiles and dances around in the puddles?
Sometimes early in the morning before I get out of bed I will turn on my phone and go to my Bible application and look at the first Bible verse that pops up.
It has nothing to do with what I'm studying. Still, scripture verses can prove to be very poignant.

So I'm passing this little gem along in the hopes that it will bless someone as it did me.
As we know in the last days scripture talks of there being a great falling away, as well as a great gathering of new believers. Some referred to it as The third wave of the Ruach Hakodesh.
As we look around the world, read and hear first hand reports of the great multitudes of peoples coming to faith in Messiah and also receive reports as to what is happening on the other end of the spectrum, I personally believe, the third wave has already begun.
Still, if we look here, in our world, around any one of us would most likely be able to admit to seeing a certain weariness, discouragement even, trying to set in among believers in Yeshua/Jesus. (Although this weariness, discouragement we see could be caused by a great many other issues, for the sake of this blog post I am specifically referring to the spiritual root cause.)
I'm sure we have all heard the question
if not asked the question ourselves at least once,
if not asked the question ourselves at least once,
"Why not here Lord?"
In reference to seeing and receiving the creative miracles of the Lord in our hometown and or country.

While this scripture that I am going to share doesn't necessarily answer that question - it does bring encouragement that even through the spiritual drought we can-yield spiritual fruit.
I pray it blesses you as it blessed me!
Jeremiah 17:7-8
"Blessed is the man who trusts in Adonai; Adonai will be his security.
He will be like a tree planted near water; it spreads out its roots by the river; it does not notice when heat comes; and its foliage is luxuriant;
it is not anxious in a year of drought but keeps on yielding fruit."
Oh yeah! Did you figure out what the Ruach showed me?
Well, I already knew it.
But it was really cool how the Lord brought it all together in this scripture.

When I was discussing this scripture with the Lord, I asked him what it meant.
He said to me, speaking in general terms about the body of Messiah,
He said to me, speaking in general terms about the body of Messiah,
"It's all about you"
He was referring to revival.
Referring to the next big wave of salvation. The next big wave of miracles. Revival is personal thing. It always starts with us first. Revival is a me thing. It starts in our hearts first.
It's up to us and how we walk out Jeremiah 17
"Adonai will be our security and we will be planted like a tree near water as our roots spread out by the river of living water we will not be anxious in the year of drought but we will keep on bearing much fruit - spiritual fruit."

So let us then therefore not loose hope but encourage one another through psalms and hymns and be encouraged IN the LORD! For surely as the sun rises and sets HE is FAITHFUL and HE is coming soon!
And while we wait let us learn to love the rain and see it for the miracle that it is! For we may very well may be missing out on miracles every day just by the way we look at things.
💧💧 💧😏😲😊💧💧💧 So let the rain fall!
