The Latter Rain

James 5:7 - "Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receive the early and latter rain."

The phrase 'former rain' is used in the Spring, and the 'latter Rain' denotes the autumn. The early rains prepare the soil for the seed sowing we see the farmers doing each and every year in the early Spring. Then, later in the year we see the latter rains ripen their crop for the coming harvest in the Fall.

We had the former rain during the ministry of Jesus Christ on earth followed by His disciples. And the latter rain is promised during Autumn so as to equip God's obedient children with the necessary skills to proclaim the present truth far and wide so as to assure a mighty harvest for the Lord when He returns seeking His bride.

It's time for us to realise and prepare for the second coming of Lord Jesus Christ, the time is running out and some of us have either got lot of things on their hands and some yet to prepare for the latter rain. Let's ask the Holy Spirit to quicken our hearts (ways) so that we are ready as His bride waiting for our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Have A Blessed Day!

God Bless
