In this message, Pastor Olubi Johnson calls the Church to discern the prophetic timing of the latter rain and to respond with intentional prayer, fasting, and spiritual focus. He explains that while the former rain brought us into new birth in Christ, the latter rain is required to mature the seed of Christ within us—bringing believers into perfection and the full stature of Christ.
The message emphasizes that fasting is not self-punishment but a redirection of strength toward the Word and prayer, positioning believers to walk in amplified spiritual power. Prayers offered in the Spirit are presented as incense gathered into heavenly bowls, preserved until they are released through the intercession of the Lord Jesus Christ to effect global transformation.
Believers are warned not to substitute material pursuit for spiritual growth. The true priority of this season is maturity—Christ formed fully in His body. As the Church embraces the teaching of perfection and labors consistently in prayer, God restores what spiritual stagnation has eaten and prepares His people for a final, glorious harvest marked by the Spirit without measure and greater works.
This message is a sober invitation to faithful intercession in a decisive hour—contributing our prayers to God’s redemptive plan as the Church transitions from the birth of Christ to His maturity, and ultimately to the unveiling of His glory in the earth.
