Resurrection Rain

Isa 55:10-11

"For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven,
And do not return there, but water the earth,
And make it bring forth and bud,
That it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater,
So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me void,
But it shall accomplish what I please,
And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. NKJV

There is a reason for rain. It doesn’t just fall to get everything wet. It doesn’t come for the dry ground to simply soak it in. It doesn’t pour from the sky to cleanse the air and wash the land. There is a greater purpose; the rain brings life. It brings work. It brings resurrection, the seed that was buried in the ground bursts into action. It brings growth. And that growth sustains and strengthens all life.
And so it is when the rain of His presence falls on the seed of His Word. The seed begins to grow. It transforms. It renews. And it sustains and strengthens spiritual life.

Go and find a world
Where My Word has never been said,
And say it there.
Let truth fall like the rain,
Fall like the rain.

Taste and see the Lord is good,
Good to those who hunger after Him.
Drink and be filled from the living well
And never thirst again.
Taste and see the Lord is good.
He’s been good to me.
(Taste and See, Paul and Rita Baloche)
