The reason that people get excited when they hear wealth shifts — they begin to think and imagine everything they can do with that abundance. But this is not the take the money and run season; this watering and showers come with a specific plan and purpose. It has also been previously delayed for good reason. It is time to look about and see the serious prophetic signpost that surround us, now. It’s not just about increase because this is also being released with instructions.

Water has a specific effect upon things such as:

• It can cause a cleansing which can deal with the removal of that which is unclean

• It can refresh that which has gone stagnant and needs new life.

Fresh flowing water will activate some needed giftings now that have been dormant for a time. Instead of sprinklings, or drizzlings — We need a downpour of rain, even a total water immersion so that we may overcome that which has already transpired and to get us ready for that which is to come. If we miss these key spiritual promptings we may not utilize properly what we receive, and fall back into lack. Once you are watered . . . you must water others.

When a good row of seedling, or a new growth of plants, are watered properly, they hold the potential to produce a great harvest. We can become a bumper crop of kingdom people, a mighty army, and a Royal Holy Priesthood especially when we allow God to release the increase in us.
