Oct. 23, 2012–The Double Rainbow

Double RainbowI’m not sure how it’s been in your part of the world, but I definitely get the impression that we’ve witnessed a greater number of double rainbows than usual this year.

Sulojana and I were vacationing in Sandusky, Ohio back in June when we spied with our large eyes the first one of the summer. The photo accompanying this blog was taken on September 4 as we were entering Forks Road East United Church for our monthly Board meeting. Just last week several Facebook friends posted pictures they had taken of double rainbows. On Saturday a friend told me about one that he had spotted while standing on the shores of Lake Ontario in Port Dalhousie (at the northern end of St. Catharines, where we live) that seemed to originate by the CN Tower in Toronto and end in our fair city (a distance of over 100 km)!

The moment we saw the very first one, I sensed a tug in my spirit that we were entering a season of Double Blessing. These most recent sightings in October, of all months, in Canada reinforced that sensing even more.

There are only a handful of references to rainbows in the Bible. In Genesis 9:16, we read that the rainbow is a reminder that God remembers His covenant. Two other references (Ezekiel 1:28, Revelation 4:3) have to do with the One who sits on the throne and the last one (Revelation 10:1) describes the head dress of a heavenly being.

I sensed the Father saying: “The Double Rainbow is meant to remind you that I have not forgotten the promises I made to you, my covenant children, both in my word and in prophetic declarations.  Some of you have been beaten up so much lately and living with so much discouragement that you need double reminders multiple times. That’s why you’ve been seeing the Double Rainbow so much in this season!

As you remind yourself of these promises and prophecies and reinforce them in your spirit through constant repetition, you will begin to experience their fulfilment with a double dose of the blessing I gave you through Aaron: ‘May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you.’

You will see the glory of my Son who sits on the throne manifested in a doubling of signs, wonders and miracles—in quantity as well as intensity. I am also releasing twice as many heavenly beings into the earth in this season. You will begin to hear many more testimonies of angelic activity within the church (particularly in worship and healing) and outside the church (watch for an increase in stories of improbable protection and inexplicable intervention in the popular press that people will attribute to angels).

Remember these words every time you see a Double Rainbow (even in late Fall and Winter). Here, receive my Double Blessing.”

Amen!
