    There is a need for the Fire to fall again--a pure, unprofaned, holy fire from heaven to burn away the sacrifice so that the sweet rain of the Holy Spirit can come pouring down upon this land!

    Let The Fire Fall! INTRO: I want you to see this picture (show picture on screens). This is the world famous fire falls of Yosemite National Park. This spectacular show and amazing feat was cancelled by the park services back in 1968, and has never been seen since. But my mother saw it once before ...read more

    “Then Elijah said to all the people, ‘Come near to me.’ And all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that had been thrown down. Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD came, saying, ‘Israel ...read more

    In this lesson, we see Elijah stand all alone against the prophets of Baal and Asherah. We learn many things from Elijah's example, including the difference one person can make.

    You may be in the middle of the drought, you may not see any evidence of rain in the sky: But Elijah didn't say he saw, he said he heard: The Sound is your sign (The rain is on the way)

    I hear the sound of the abundance of rain: That means my ear has picked up a signal in the airwaves Sound = vibrations) my ear has picked up the vibration of something that is coming. I can't see it, I can't touch it, I don't feel it but it's on the way. How do I know it's coming this ...read more
