Impossible Rain

It was very dry in this area and the mealies were suffering under the tremendous heat. They were withering away and no rain was in sight. What made matters worse was that not only was there a scorching heat, but no clouds were in sight. No rain in sight; or so I thought. Then the Lord spoke to me and said that it was going to rain tonight. I said Lord, "Really? But there are no clouds in the sky, how could this be possible?" As I discussed this with my wife that no rain was in sight, she mentioned the story of Elijah who prayed after a drought that it should rain. That afternoon we prayed for rain in the family on Saturday. Looking at the conditions I predicted that no rain was coming for the next days. The Lord again laid an impression on me that it would rain. I asked the Lord to give me 2 days for more spectrum to be right about the rain. In the evening we could not believe it, hearing thunder in the distance. I mentioned the story of a pastor in a congregation who said that "if the East Wind is blowing no praying for rain will help because It simply will NOT rain". The east wind was blowing from Swaziland. Lord could it be? Then a small band of clouds formed in the west with some lightning far away. That evening on the farm of my family it rained 73 mm. The Lord is great! It was as if the Lord said to me if I give you an impression it WILL come to pass. Share it with others without being afraid that it won't happen. The Lord is great in his deeds! He sent rain under "impossible" circumstances! We can trust him and share this with each other.
