You Shall Receive Power

The "former rain" of God’s Holy Spirit is described in the Book of Acts. In the days just prior to the return of Christ the "latter rain" of the Spirit of God will fall. The former rain empowered the spreading of the Gospel witness, the testimony concerning the soon coming of the Kingdom of God, to the ends of the earth. The latter rain also will result in the testimony of the Kingdom of God going forth to the ends of the earth.
It is our point of view that when the Spirit spoke to John "Thou must prophesy again" (Revelation 10:11), the Spirit was referring to the latter rain that was announced by the prophets of Israel. The latter rain is the "again" prophecy. The end-time, latter-rain witness of the Kingdom of God will be prophetic in nature. The members of God’s elect will become a part of the great Light of the world, the Body of Christ, the Lampstand of God.
