The Three Angels’ Messages and the Latter Rain, Prayer, and Revival

It's exciting to be able to speak on God's behalf.

I don't ever count it as something I should take for granted, that it will always be there.

And anybody who knows my testimony knows that it wasn't always going to be there for me.

We recognize that we are living in some very awful times.

And so for my message tonight, I understand the assignment is 3 angels' messages and the latter rain.

And this could get very high-level prophecy timing.

When does this happen in relation to this?

And I'll talk a little bit about those things, but I really wanna talk about the very heart of how the latter rain speaks to you today in your experience.

So with that being said, I'm gonna put my timer on.

I don't like to speak too long because questions may come up, which I'll be happy to take those at the end.

But if you'll pray with me, I invite the Holy Spirit to be with us.

Mighty God, Everlasting Father, it's your time.

God, we have not come to hear the words of a man, but we desire to hear the word of God.

Remind us of those moments where we felt a sense of distance from heaven.

And God, we pray that you would provide us hope and that the sweet, sweet spirit of Jesus may rest upon this meeting and that he may impress the truth upon the soul.

We love you and we thank you for these gifts and we offer this prayer from our hearts in Jesus name amen a month ago to the day I was speaking at camp meeting in Hope BC was a powerful weekend I mean I love preaching there.

The mountains, the scenery, it's a beautiful place, beautiful people, people are hungry for the word of God.

And there's some places you travel and preach and you start wondering, like, is the Holy Spirit more in 1 place than in another?

I don't know if anybody knows what I'm talking about.

You could preach the same sermon in Africa and baptize a thousand people.

You preach that sermon in Detroit, and people are like, oh brother, I was reminded of How we should do X Y & Z So I was in Hope BC preaching and After the final message Which is normal people hang around they have questions.

They want to talk to you Whatever God spoke to them through you, they are drawn to you, wanna talk.

So I was talking to several different people and I came to a young man named Jonathan.

And Jonathan and I had crossed paths a day before because of his experiences in the occult.

And unbeknownst to him, I had experiences in canvassing, in ministry, dealing with people, dealing with the occult, and all of this type of stuff, demonic possession.

So afterwards, Jonathan says, hey man, I don't even have words.

So the pastor who brought him, myself, he was non-Adventist, he's seeking, put our hands around him, I begin to pray.

As I'm praying, a demon begins to laugh in the middle of the prayer through this young man.

Now in that very moment, as I'm praying with him, I knew exactly what it was.

And I kept praying, the demon laughed again.

I kept praying, the demon laughed again, and then he started to growl and make a sound.

So I could feel the other guy, the pastor, open his eyes to see what is going on.

So finally I ended the prayer, we started talking, and you could see him, his eyes were rolling, his body started, he started to lose control, and I started to share a prayer with him because I'd met a woman canvassing who had dealt with demonic possession because her mother told her when she left the house, she didn't even know she got involved in a Satanic cult.

She thought it was a Christian organization.

But she was followed everywhere she went with demons, and her mother told her when she left the house, she said, whenever you find yourself in trouble, just pray this prayer, Jesus, I'm yours, save me.

So I talked to the young man, I said, look at me, I want you to say exactly what I'm saying.

And as soon as he tried to say the name of Jesus, he couldn't say it.

He would start going into possession again, and we're bringing him back and forth, consciousness, back to the demon, consciousness, back to the demon.

And I said, listen, the demon wants to make a scene because he knows there's somebody in here who has something in their life.

Because you see, the devil understands that persecution is his last modality when he cannot get you to compromise.

The recognition that at this moment, every single time you see demonic possession in the Bible, it was because the demon knew he was about to get evicted.

He knew in the presence of Jesus it was time to go.

And not only in the presence of Jesus, in the presence of those who serve him.

That's why the demon said in the sons of Sceva, Paul we know, and Jesus we know, But who are you?

Because you don't serve Jesus Desire of ages says when you give your life to Christ Jesus makes you his own citadel and He will know no other power in your life save his own That's a good king and He's a mighty warrior So he will know no other power in your life save his own.

So he will know no other power in your life save his own.

So the moment you show up, because Jesus is sitting on the throne of your heart.

And as I started to pray for the young man, the demon recognized, oh, no, we're not doing this.

So the next day, we were fasting and praying.

They ended up praying for the young man from 10 AM to 7 PM.

He had hundreds of demons inside of him sitting right in the meeting.

See what I need you guys to understand is we're talking about the Holy Spirit and the latter rain and the in filling of the Holy Spirit, let's recognize there is another spirit in this world that is also filling people.

So when we talk about praying for the latter rain, we're not recognizing just the ripening of our character for the preparation of Jesus's return.

We're talking about the character of the wicked are going to get more stark and more clear.

You think you had it rough in your church so far?

Just wait until you start being filled with the Holy Spirit.

Do we forget that Jesus lived the perfect life and it ended by a billionaire?

Tithe paying, Sabbath keeping, oracles of God receiving, members.

Brothers and sisters, we sit in these meetings, we talk, we fellowship, we laugh, we pray together, we encourage 1 another, but here's the reality.

I'm telling you as a preacher who's been doing this for 21 years, I've never ever in 21 years of ministry had someone become demonically possessed in my presence It's always before I arrive or when I leave And I could tell you stories arrived in Africa arrived in South America people messing with Santa Ria.

I arrive, all of a sudden there's no problems.

But for the very first time in 21 years of ministry, as I'm praying with my hands on the young men, the demon starts to talk.

The birth pangs of Jesus' coming are getting shorter.

Anyone who ever had a child and understands what I'm talking about When those contractions get 5 minutes apart, you know, it's time to go to the hospital.

Amen and Right now The intensity of what the devil is ramping up is increasing.

I guarantee if I start asking hands, how many of you know somebody right now who's dying of a fatal disease?

How many of you guys know someone who's considering suicide ideation?

How many of you know someone right now whose marriage is falling apart?

How many of you know someone who's being persecuted in their own church?
