Operation Global Rain
Feb. 12, 2007
Praise the Lord! The day of Victory is here for the Three Angels Message.
What a day of Victory, Victory, Victory, the old song should be sung, loud
and clear. This will really make the devil angry, and upset a lot of
churches who are not following God's plan for the end time, but I believe we
have a church that will go through to the end.
Memo: This was discussed by the NAD Presidents today. We can give this
project our full support.
Elder Mel Eisele
I hope you will take part in this special request to the Lord as we enter
into the very end of our world. Please pass this on to all your SDA friends
and and former SDA friends..
Operation Global Rain
Hello all,
An amazing and perhaps prophetic movement is under way. It is called
Operation Global Rain. It started when a few churches in Central
California decided to hold a 10-day prayer event after the model of the
early church found in Acts 2. There were no keynote speakers, but rather a
group of disciples pleading for nothing else but the outpouring of the
latter rain.
Every night from 7 to 8 p.m., a theme sheet with Bible verses and S.O.P.
quotes was presented. We read these privately and then prayed, sometimes
silently, other times in groups of two, and others as a congregation.
Though done at separate times, the churches all experienced revival.
Animosity was laid aside and a true spirit of unity, repentance and mission
took hold of the members.
The idea then came about: What if the all the churches in the conference
were to petition the throne of God at the same time, for the same thing, the
outpouring of the Latter Rain? The idea was presented to one conference
just a week ago (January, 07) and has become a reality. Last year, a great
deal was made about the date 6.06.06. A popular movie about the antichrist
was released on that date, and underground satanic movements glorified the
day. This year is 7.07.07! And it happens to be a Sabbath. The date for
Operation Global Rain will be 6.27.07 to 7.07.07!
But the vision of Operation Global Rain is much larger. Imagine all the
churches of California petitioning the throne of God, at the same time
for the same thing. Then, imagine all the churches in North America
petitioning the throne of God at the same time, for the same thing. And
then imagine the entire global church praying at the same time for the same
thing, the outpouring of the latter rain! Hence, Operation Global Rain!
This is not another 'church sponsored' program, but a grassroots movement
that needs your participation. By word of mouth, by email, and any other
means, we need your help to spread the word. A web site is currently being
built for Operation Global Rain, where churches will be able to register,
and download each nights theme sheet. IT WILL BE LIKE A NET EVENT without
the cost of satellite up links or keynote speakers!
We close with this eye opening thought. The early rain was poured out on all
that were praying for it. But that was only a total of about 120, who were
all in one location, Jerusalem. Now, what if people around the globe were
praying for the outpouring of the latter rain? If God were to be so
gracious as to answer, where would that rain fall? Where would that Spirit
descend? Would it not lighten the entire globe with its glory? Is this not
what has been prophesied to happen according to Revelation 18:1-4?
Please prayerfully consider these two quotes from the S.O.P. and the
two Bible verses below.
An Awakened Church.--When we have entire, wholehearted consecration to
the service of Christ, God will recognize the fact by an outpouring of His
Spirit without measure; but this will not be while the largest portion of
the church are not laborers together with God.--Review and Herald, July 21,
1896.
The prophecies in the eighteenth of Revelation will soon be fulfilled.
During the proclamation of the third angel's message, "another angel" is
to
"
come down from heaven, having great power" and the earth is to be
"
lightened with His glory." The Spirit of the Lord will so graciously and
universally bless consecrated human instrumentalities, that men, women, and
children will open their lips in praise and testimony, filling the earth
with the knowledge of God and with His unsurpassed glory, as the waters
cover the sea. {2MR 21.3}
If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts
to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; my people,
which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my
face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and
will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:13-14.
Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:
Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders,
gather the children? then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity
his people? Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your
God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to
come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the
first month.? Joel 2:15,16,18,23.
Nothing like this has happened in Adventist history except the 1840-44
movement. We are told it will happen again. The angel who unites in the
proclamation of the third message is to lighten the whole earth with his
glory. A work of world-wide extent and unwonted power is here brought to
view.
The Advent movement of 1840-44 was a glorious manifestation of the power of
God; the first message was carried to every missionary station in the
world, and in this country there was the greatest religious interest which
has been witnessed in any land since the Reformation of
the sixteenth century; but these are to be far exceeded by the
mighty movement under the loud cry of the third message. The work will be
similar to that of the day of Pentecost. Servants of God, with their faces
lighted up and shining with holy consecration, hasten from place to place
to proclaim the warning from Heaven.
By thousands of voices, all over the earth, the message will be given.
Miracles are wrought, the sick are healed, and signs and wonders follow the
believers. Satan also works with lying wonders, even bringing down fire
from heaven in the sight of men. Thus the inhabitants of the earth are
brought to take their stand. {4SP 429.2}
Would you call a friend, talk to your pastors, forward this email and have
your church be a part of this global petitioning of the God of heaven. It
may be that He will hear us and fit us to give that final message to the
world with power. May God bless you as we hasten the coming of the Lord!!!

Hello Bob,
I thank you for your input in this matter. The only reason I forwarded it on
was because Clark Floyd was on my original message. I did not realize the real
source. I was picturing some scattered churches around California that are inviting
people to join in with them.
When I looked at the "Church Works" insert in my church bulletin last Sabbath I wanted to cry. Where is God's dear church heading??? So many people are members for security reasons. If Ellen White were alive today. . .
Although it did take the disciples 10 days of prayer confession and fasting to receive the early rain. We are told by sister White that it will take us 20 days. I realize the motives for the effort to bring in the latter rain must be truthful, and without deception. I also realize the only way we are going to take the time to completely devote our lives to God is when the persecution become the heaviest, like during the SUNday law crisis, when we will be driven to our knees with no where else to turn, like the disciples were when the soldiers were hunting them for stealing the body of Jesus. We would do well to imitate this searching of heart, and confession.
God Bless you
Jeff W
