The Latter Rain: Endtime Outpourings with Apostle Joshua Selman – Koinonia, March 2024
The March 2024 Koinonia session, themed The Latter Rain: Endtime Outpourings, was a prophetic gathering of believers seeking to align with God’s agenda for the end times. Apostle Joshua Selman, a globally revered apostle and teacher, led this spirit-filled session, offering profound revelations and insights on the dynamics of the Holy Spirit’s outpouring in these last days.
Held at the Glory Dome in Abuja and streamed to millions worldwide, the session was a clarion call for believers to awaken to their spiritual responsibilities and embrace the fullness of God’s promises for this generation.
Scriptural Anchor
The theme was drawn from Joel 2:23 and Joel 2:28-29:
“Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God; for He has given you the former rain faithfully, and He will cause the rain to come down for you—the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.”
“And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. And also on My menservants and on My maidservants, I will pour out My Spirit in those days.”
Apostle Selman explained that the “latter rain” represents a prophetic outpouring of the Holy Spirit, preparing the church for a harvest of souls and the manifestation of God’s glory before Christ’s return.
