And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. Ezekiel 34:26.
The Lord has appointed the youth to be His helping hand.
Many a lad of today, growing up as did Daniel in his Judean home, studying God’s Word and His works, and learning the lessons of faithful service, will yet stand in legislative assemblies, in halls of justice, or in royal courts, as a witness for the King of kings….
With such an army of workers as our youth, rightly trained, might furnish, how soon the message of a crucified, risen, and soon-coming Saviour might be carried to the whole world!
The great work of the gospel is not to close with less manifestation of the power of God than marked its opening. The prophecies which were fulfilled in the outpouring of the former rain at the opening of the gospel, are again to be fulfilled in the latter rain at its close….
Servants of God, with their faces lighted up and shining with holy consecration, will hasten from place to place to proclaim the message from heaven. By thousands of voices, all over the earth, the warning will be given. Miracles will be wrought, the sick will be healed, and signs and wonders will 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 will be brought to take their stand.
The message will be carried not so much by argument as by the deep conviction of the Spirit of God…. The rays of light penetrate everywhere, the truth is seen in its clearness, and the honest children of God sever the bands which have held them.
God has a work for His people to do for the world, and if they will work in harmony with one another and with heaven, He will demonstrate His power in their behalf as He did for His first disciples on the day of Pentecost.

Prayer Requests
—-Lost my mom today. Angella
—-I’m requesting prayer for a woman who has to wait on a much-needed knee surgery. She has to lose weight, before this surgery. The knee cap is bone to bone. There is daily severe pain. Difficultly in getting sleep at night. Difficulty in standing or walking. The knee injections are not working and its extreme pain in getting them. Please, let us petition The LORD for HIS Gentle Loving-Kindness in her healing. I ask, also, for her heart to be given to her Saviour. Katherin
—-Please pray for my Mother, Evelyn Harvey. Last Friday, she was having problems with her COPD, and was having trouble breathing. I called the ambulance for her, and they took her to the hospital.
I thought that she was getting better. But my brother contacted me from the hospital, and he told me that she is “agitated”, and “not herself”, and “struggling”. Mark
—-Pray for my safe travel to Chicago on Wednesday, April 17, 2019, and that God’s blessings will be done. Arlene
Another Pentecost Coming!
