The end time plan is that God will pour out His spirit on all flesh. It will look like dreams, visions, prophecy, salvations, signs, wonders and miracles. This is revival! It is an open heaven where the revival rains come. When the rains come, people encounter God. The rain is the presence of God. The rain softens our hearts that the seeds of His promises will be planted in good soil. The revival rains brings refreshing. God wants to give us an unusual intimacy that comes from the rain. When these rains of revival are released, God accelerates the harvest of the grain, oil and wine. He wants to release these three things over the entire church. It’s for you!
The Grain
Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” Matthew 4:4 NIV
Grain is one of the main ingredients of bread. The grain is the Word of God being fulfilled. It is the prophetic word coming to past. It’s the “logos” of the Bible turning into the “rhema,” a fresh word from God for you. The grain is when the written word is made manifest in your life. It’s beyond holding on to the scriptures as a promise. It is when you walk in His promises. The grain of the Lord is activated in the rain of God. It causes the seeds of promises in the Word and prophesy to germinate and to grow.
The Oil
“But You have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil.” Psalm 92:10

When we receive the rains of revival, we receive fresh oil for our lamps. God wants to give you the oil. It represents a fresh anointing. In the verse above, we picture a wild ox. The ox is an animal with explosive power and I believe it represents that God wants to releases a fresh anointing of strength. Anointing happens when you get so close to Jesus that what’s on Him rubs off on you. Many times, when we talk about the anointing oil, it releases the fragrance of the King. You might physically smell His fragrance.
“But thanks be to God, who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma of the knowledge of him everywhere.” 2 Cor 2:14
The Wine
“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.” Psalm 23:5 NIV
I had an encounter where I was sitting down at a feast. I had my spot at the table with Jesus and behind Him where all kinds of wine and wine barrels. In this vision I saw a huge banner that said “love” over the wine and it reminded me of this verse:
“Let him lead me to the banquet hall, and let his banner over me be love.” Song of Sol. 2:4
In this vision, there was a huge table. There’s a place for everyone but when you sit down, it’s feels like it’s just you and Him.
Originally, I thought the wine represented joy but after Jesus spoke to me in this encounter, I believe that His wine represents romance. It represents the love between the bridegroom and His bride. He wants a lovesick bride. When you are influenced with the spirit, like a man is intoxicated with wine, boldness will arise and you will start doing things out of the norm because God will influence you! You will be bold in His love. Drink in His intoxicating love over you.
Keep It Simple…
Soak in the presence of God. God wants to release His love, the oil of Heaven and prophetic promises fulfilled to the entire church. It’s for you! His outpouring of revival rains will cover the whole earth!
Receive this prayer from Jerame to release an open heaven over your life! It’s time for the revival rains!
