Quote from the book, Fasting. In response to prayer and fasting by His people [(Joel 2:23–29 NAS)], God says, “I will come to your help. I will change the whole situation, take away the dearth and the blight, and supply all your needs. There will be an abundance, an overflow, and no longer will you be a reproach among the nations. You will be able to lift up your heads, and other peoples will say, ‘Look what God has done for them.’ ” In particular, God promises that He will send His people the desperately needed former and latter rain. He then says, in a spiritual application of the rain, “I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind.”
