The Spirit of God is not in heaven, He is here in the earth. He is in all of us! Jesus said, "...whosoever drinketh the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life" (John 4:14).

John 7:38 says, "He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water." The outpouring of the Spirit is a flow of rivers of living water coming from the believer. That is the source of all the signs and wonders and miracles! All of these signs and wonders are in the Holy Spirit and He is in us. Prayer, then, is going to play the major role in this outpouring.

Prayer, based on the Word, is the doorway into the mightiest release of power known to man. It brings the presence of God to and upon men in any part of the world. That power operates as believers pray in faith, allowing those rivers of living water to gush toward the dry and the thirsty.

The torrential outpouring of the Spirit will cause life to spring forth in those who receive the seed of God's Word and they will be born again. This is the whole reason and purpose for this wave of the Holy Spirit in our day. Prayer causes the spiritual new birth and that's what God is after.

God has been teaching His people to walk by faith and not by sight. He has been training us to use our faith in receiving healing, prosperity and victory in our personal lives - and we will continue to do that - but now the time has come to direct our faith primarily toward this great outpouring of revival and harvesting of souls like never before.

It's time for a tidal wave of God's power to flood the entire earth.
