“Then, after doing all those things, I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions. In those days I will pour out my Spirit even on servants—men and women alike.

Good morning!! Lord, You meet us every time we get into Your Word, thank You. Reading "after doing all those things" - begs a question. What "things" then usher in the 
outpouring of Your Spirit upon all people, men and women alike?

Those who turn to You and give You their hearts, verse 12.

Becoming aware of our need for You, Your compassion and unfailing love, verse 13.

Repentance because You're calling us to You, for Your name's sake and honor, verse 17.

Provision of rain, grain, new wine and olive oil, enough to satisfy our needs, verses 19, 23 - 24.

Psalm 104:15 says this about these elements... And wine which makes the heart of man glad,
So that he may make his face glisten with oil,
And bread to sustain and strengthen man’s heart. 

Rain demonstrates His faithfulness.
Grain speaks of strength. 
Wine speaks of joy. 
Oil speaks of the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

These THINGS. Lord after You have called us to repentance, we've responded, You've blessed us by faithfully restoring us with strength, joy and a new countenance - Your Spirit is poured out on ALL. I pray today for all reading, our hearts and minds are open to the truths of these words. Where we may have felt stuck, help us to become unstuck and rely on Your forgiveness, restoration, strength, joy and blessing of Your Spirit living within. Thank You Jesus, amen ❤
