You have been asking God for rain. But is the ground prepared to receive it?

Just as a farmer must break up hardened soil before seed and rain can bring fruit, our hearts must be softened before God can fully pour out His Spirit. Hearts can slowly grow hard through distraction, routine, spiritual neglect, and the noise of everyday life. Not necessarily rebellion, but simply a heart no longer being carefully tended.

In this episode, America Pray Now Director Hanna Alway shares the biblical picture of breaking up the fallow ground of our hearts through prayer, honesty before God, searching the Scriptures, repentance, and waiting in His presence. When the soil of the heart is softened, it becomes prepared for the rain of heaven and the fruit that only God can produce.

The rain is coming. The question is: are our hearts prepared to receive it?

“Awakening begins with softened hearts.”
