Rain of Fire!
Is Joel’s prophecy about to
be fulfilled?
I wanted to draw doves’ attention to a very recent prophecy
from Susan Cummings titled Rain of Fire - I have copied it
below. It is quite long so I have removed the Bible quotes, although the
references are there. The bolding is mine. There are many such
prophecies, but this one is closer to the heart of God. This outpouring
could start on or near Shavuot, and with events accelerating there may be
only one opportunity left - Shavuot 2009 starts in Israel on
Thursday 28 May 2009. This may be preceded by a time
of darkness, with Iran probably taking centre stage. If we took 120 days as a
guide and count back, this brings us to 28 January 2009. And a week
before that is close to Obama day! How very important are the days we are
in right now! Maranatha
Joel 2:28
And afterward I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams,
your young men shall see visions. 30 And I will show signs and
wonders in the heavens, and on the earth, blood and fire
and columns of smoke. 31 The sun shall be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood before the great and terrible day of the Lord
comes.(G)
Rain of Fire
Susan Cummings - New York

In the
vision, I was looking at the world from a suspended position. I could see people
and areas from a panoramic position and also at times, I saw things close up.
The position varied as it did with the scenes and with the messages that I was
given to understand by the experiences given to me. I saw what looked to me
like great fiery rain coming from heaven and it came in great drops or
elongated streams. It was not like the natural rain that we know of, but it was
like spiritually infused living molten lava, a real fire, but it was Living
Spirit; the living fiery essence of the Father that was raining down towards
the inhabitants below.
As I
watched, I saw that it fell simultaneously in one great event all over the
earth. But it did not fall everywhere, and it did not upon everyone. It
rained down suddenly and I saw that many people did see it coming from
above as it happened, as it was a real physical event that men could actually
experience and see, but it was also a divine event that not all men would
experience, but I understood that men would know that God had entered into
the corporate natural affairs of men divinely again.
It was not a
slow natural event like a storm or a weather phenomenon that you could track, or
follow and monitor, actually, from my perspective it looked like a slow
unfolding event, but I understood that it actually happened very fast. I
was just being given an enhanced view for my understanding and learning.
The raining
fire of the Father that I saw falling was the Real Living Essence of the Father
Himself that was being released upon those whom He had prepared to receive
it below. It was interesting to watch this happen, as it fell upon people
whom you would not expect nor think that it would, or even that it would not, by
our thinking or reasoning of qualifications.
The fiery
rain would come down and fall upon a particular person who would be either aware
of it falling or not be aware of it falling at that particular moment, but
when it did hit them, they underwent a sudden tremendous change. I
watched close up as the living fire seemed to penetrate into them and infuse
itself or radiate itself throughout their beings and bodies. They literally
became the very same Essence of the Father that the rain was that had fell upon
them. Their eyes burned with a new life and even their skin was changed. It was
not like ours now. It had a different texture or spiritual component to its
makeup, and the fire flowed throughout their skin like a radiance, but it was
not just an outward surface shining, but it was an internal radiance from within
the skin layers itself. It was not like human skin as we know it, the qualities
had been divinely altered, and the people now had new natures. I did not fully
understand all of this process, but it was real and it was new. They were of a
different spirit, as they now embodied the divine in such a way that we have yet
to experience up to now.
The people
who were infused would now physically embody the divine fire, but it also lived
through them and it became them as they became it, also. They did not lose
their individual personalities through the process, but each person was still
their own unique vessel, but they were also now divinely infused and were more
divinely aware of God and understood their earthly purpose now. The fire
seemed to fully express itself within them so that it flowed outwardly also by
the transformation that was happening to them. By this I mean that there was
such a Holiness and a terrible Presence of the Father in them and on them, that
you knew that God the Father walked in them, and that He was now walking through
them in a manner that we have yet to experience in any generation yet. God
was manifesting Himself in a people just like He did with Jesus, when Jesus
walked amongst us. But now these people did it openly.
I then
watched in the vision from a view further away, and I saw that it indeed only
fell upon some and not on upon others. The selection of who it fell upon was
the Father’s and not of any man. Most of those that I saw that it fell upon
were some people were very weary and very embattled people. From earthly
standards, we probably wouldn’t have thought that they would amount to anything
by their current life and their struggles that they have endured. But I
understood that their unique trials and their life’s struggles that they lived
out had actually served to prepared them for this new infusion that now came
from the Father.
One man that
I saw in particular that received the fiery rain was very emotionally and
spiritually broken. He had endured much physical hardship and I understood that
he had endured much persecution from the church. He had been misunderstood most
of his life and he also had thought that he had failed God and that he had
missed God and that he had lost his place. But God used these things in his life
to lead him closer to Himself and to purify this man to be able to be one that
would become His chosen vessel. He was very beloved by the Lord and he had
learned humility through the suffering which caused him to rise above the
hardness and the hatred that’s in the world, even though he did not understand
why his life was this way.
Not every
person that I saw was as broken as this man was that had received this infusion,
I was just given to notice certain ones for my own learning and for our
beneficial clarity. Many of the people I saw seemed to be living successful
lives and seemed to be spiritually healthy or spiritually active in their walks
in spite of the hour in which they lived in. But the common factor that I
noticed with them all was that they each had undergone recent trials and they
were currently experiencing various levels of spiritual warfare and were in
various stages of purging by the Lord in their walks. Most did not
understand the full reason why their lives were embattled, nor understand the
full plan of God behind it all, but they did seek God in the midst of it
all.
Another
person I noticed was one that did not receive the divine infusion. But rather,
this person watched as others were filled and was angry and yelled at God.
One man I saw screamed out that he was one of the servants that had
prophesied of it’s coming, and had taught on it, so he should be one that
received it and that he deserved it. He was angry that the Father did not give
it to him. I was afraid as I saw this in the vision, as I knew that his
anger was pride and arrogance and that the Father was just in this, for this
man’s heart was not truly right. I also knew that this man would fall as he did
not have the right heart necessary to stand in the next hour and to fulfill his
course successfully. He had allowed the pride of position and the pride that
comes from being used by God to bring forth revelation from God to others, to
cause him to be disqualified and to harden his heart. I feared the Lord as I
watched, for I knew that we all stand by Grace, and not one of us can receive
anything from God unless we truly believe and unless we truly are fully
surrendered to Him in every way.
I divinely
understood that it was a matter of the individual’s heart before God, and not
just on his outward qualifications, knowledge, or training. God walks with each
of His People, and He daily leads them on their life’s journey, and what they
learn throughout their experiences and through their dependence upon God through
it, determines their receptiveness or not. God desires that we utterly trust
Him, that we utterly love Him, and that we utterly believe Him. Even though we
each experience different levels of trials and events in our personal journeys,
the lessons are the same for all men. We must each come to a death of our own
ego and self life and we must come to a deeper personal knowledge of God and
into an intimate relationship with God. Our responses to God in our life’s
process will determine if we will walk fully with Him or not, and if we will
allow Him to change us into what he wants us to be. God sees us all and knows
each of our hearts. He knows who will let Him have His full and complete way in
their lives. Even though we might think we have failed Him, because of the
severity of our individual paths and trials, and also because we did not
understand the process of why we were in the events, the Father knows the depths
of what lies deep within each of us.
I watched
as others were transformed here and there, and it was also a very shocking event
on the earth as it was so sudden and unexpected. It also did not come in the
manner in which we had been taught from the church leaders, but it came as it
had been ordained from the Father, for this generation. There was
worldwide upheaval as the newly infused people began to quickly then be
sent out by the Father all over the earth on the Father’s business, and the
people around them realized that they did not receive what the others had. There
was a lot of crying out from people all around also, as this event also
produced a huge surge of spiritual searching and even chaos in the church as
the people who were not infused questioned the established church leaders of
their knowledge of this event and its significance.
I also was
given to know that out of those who did not receive the infusion of the Fiery
Essence, this did not mean that they were not the Lord’s people. It just meant
that they had missed the divine release because of their lack of inner spiritual
preparation and that they had not fully developed their hearts before God in
their relationships in a timely manner for this event. They were still God’s
children, but they had missed the opportunity to be used in this higher divine
manner for the next stages of events that would come upon the earth. There was a
great sorrow expressed over this reality, as many of them realized that they did
not fully lay hold of the higher call or obtain to the mark that God had set for
them all to achieve.
What I did
see was that this divine event caused a great sobering wave to spread across the
church and also a wave of a great determination to seek God exploded across
the church and also across the globe.
Many
began to rise up and decide to be purified themselves and they began to
sacrifice everything to obey God, but it did not come as a reality in their
lives until after these events happened. Nevertheless, this event served to
bring about the corporate awakening and the rising up of the majority of the
true Body of Christ across the globe. Many now questioned what they had been
spiritually taught by others, and many returned to studying the Word and they
began to search it out for themselves. A new respect for the Church began to
also spread amongst the Christian people, as they realized the reality of being
the Body of Christ, and repentance began to burst forth and a new sense of
purpose caused them to not persecute one another, but to see each other as
Christ.
This
event also brought about much chaos, fear, confusion, and anger amongst the
unbelieving Christians, and among the religious, and especially the general
world populations. Great persecution also immediately broke out against the
divine fire, as many did not understand it and they feared it. The newly
infused people of God were not like them anymore, as they had been divinely
changed, and this caused much panic and turmoil. But it also caused revival
to break out and a great fear of the reality of God to began to be spread
worldwide.
The devil
was also greatly enraged as the Divine Essence now was embodied again in the
earth, and he no longer had dominion over God’s people to prevent them anymore,
and a great resistance and opposition and war broke out in many areas as the
Divine Light now clashed with the darkness. I saw great upheavals and war in
many areas, but also great restorations and great Light begin to spread
throughout God’s people all across the globe. The Father is in full control
of the earthly events, even those to come and He is active in all of the affairs
of men.
