#Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain; so the LORD shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, Zechariah 10:1
#The Latter Rain is for the people of God near the end-of-time during the time of trouble. As the Church began with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost so shall it end with an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. (And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.---But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: --Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:2,14,16-18,37-38)
#Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. James 5:7 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: Isaiah 44:3
#It takes place near the harvest as seen above in James 5:7 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. Revelation 14:15
#This Latter Rain will have to involve a lot of work by the Holy Spirit - Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Romans 8:26
#Believers are to be both Justified and Sanctified - And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6:11
#Those who won't recieve the Latter Rain at that time - Son of man, say unto her, Thou art the land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation. Ezekiel 22:24
#And what have they done? 1) Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: 2) they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, 3) Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, 4) to get dishonest gain. Ezekiel 22:26-27
#Don't be one of those who say - The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved. Jeremiah 8:20
#"They will plead with an earnestness that cannot be repulsed. Then the windows of heaven will be open for the showers of the latter rain." Review & Herald 2/25/1890
