Praying for Rain

Why Pray for Rain?

“Ask the Lord for rain in the time of the latter rain.

The Lord will make flashing clouds; He will give them

showers of rain, grass in the field for everyone.” Zech.

10:1

“Let Christians ask in faith for the promised blessing,

and it will come. The outpouring of the Spirit in the

days of the apostles was the former rain, and glorious was

the result. But the latter rain will be more abundant.”

Evangelism, p. 701

“If my people who are called by my name will humble

themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from

their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and

will forgive their sin and heal their land.” 2 Chron. 7:14

“There is nothing that Satan fears so much as that

the people of God shall clear the way by removing

every hindrance, so that the Lord can pour out His

Spirit upon a languishing church and an impenitent

congregation.” Messages to Young People, p. 133

“We should pray as earnestly for the descent of the

Holy Spirit as the disciples prayed on the Day of

Pentecost. If they needed it at that time, we need it

more today. Moral darkness, like a funeral pall, covers

the earth. All manner of false doctrines, heresies, and

satanic deceptions are misleading the minds of men.

Without the Spirit and power of God it will be in vain

that we labor to present the truth.” Testimonies for the

Church, vol. 5, p. 158
