“So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the crawling locust, the consuming locust, and the chewing locust.” Joel 2:25

January 22^nd, 2015 – This morning, I heard the Lord say, “Believe Me when I say, I will restore what the locust have eaten.”  I have never heard the Lord speak to me in this way before.  It was as if He really needed a person to hear and believe, as if our ears have been dull do to “hearing this before”.

How many times have we heard, “I will restore all that the locust have eaten”?  I would venture to say we have heard this many times.   God is looking to and fro on this earth to show Himself mighty to a people, He is looking for faith.  We cannot take lightly the Words of the Lord on this, and we must be ready.

In Joel chapter 2 where we find this scripture of God restoring what the locust have eaten, the time frame we can expect to see the hand of God move.  In Joel 2:31 it says, “…He will show signs in the heavens of the sun turning dark and the moon into blood.”  These very things are scheduled to happen in 2015.  There is a total eclipse on March 20^th and a red moon scheduled for April 4^th, 2015.

We will see God restore to us this year.  A year of restoration.  Maybe this is the 4^th, 5^th or even 6^th word you have heard on restoration.  I don’t know.  What I do know, is God is looking for a people to believe this Word, so they can partake of it.  We cannot partake of what we do not believe.  Jesus said, “According to your faith…”  He also said, “when I return, will I really find faith on the earth?”  Without faith it is impossible to please God.

“…The former rain and the latter rain in the first month, the threshing floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.” Joel 2:23-24

This is the hour where its not just an outpouring of His Spirit, but it is the Spirit without measure. This is where the former and latter rain come together.  This is the hour of His Spirit without measure.  God said to Abraham if you can “count the stars” then you can calculate My blessing.  The stars are un-countable.  The Spirit is not countable or calculable.  He is not a formula.  He is a person.  The same person who literally holds this universe and the heavens together.  There is no limit to what He can do in our lives, in our marriages, in our friendships, in our ministries, in our nation, or on this earth.

This is the hour when God doesn’t just restore to what you had, but above and beyond what you could think or imagine.  He isn’t going to just put you back at the level you were.  The word says He is going to restore THE YEARS.  Years of restoration!  This is the hour where the Spirit without measure is accessed by the people of God.  This is the hour to prepare your warehouses for supply.  If you don’t have a storehouse, then get one!   This is the hour to prepare your heart for worship that goes beyond what you have experienced before.  This is the hour to prepare for increase in your church, in your ministry and your life. This is the hour to prepare the feast for the prodigal son/daughter coming home.  This is the hour to enlarge your tent stakes.  This is the hour that God pours out such a blessing that you cannot contain it, that you cannot count, that you cannot calculate the value of.  This is the hour of miracles, and the supernatural at a level of no measurement.  With this comes the greatest harvest of souls we have seen yet!  They will know in all the earth who God is by His wonders, His goodness, His kindness that is shown through us, His bride.

This is the hour to starve and fast your doubt and unbelief.  Cast it out!  Only believe!  This is the greatest hour in all of history.  The harvest is not fourth months, it is now.  Move forward in confidence in Him for your life, your ministry, your church.  The ultimate harvest is assured, and God is restoring what the locust have eaten!  Only believe.
