Overview

After four hundred years of prophetic silence, God sent John the Baptist to announce the coming of the Messiah, the baptism He would bring, and the in-breaking of the kingdom of God on earth. In response, people streamed to the Jordan River to hear John's words and be baptized by him in the Jewish ritual mikveh bath for cleansing from sin and defilement. John's calling was to prepare the people for the coming glory. Our God is nothing if not consistent--the same yesterday, today and forever. As in the days leading to the return of Jesus, He therefore continues to send messengers in advance to announce coming moves of the Spirit in order to prepare His people to receive. Author R. Loren Sandford believes God is about to do something huge, wonderful, and even unprecedented in scope and impact, and he is urging Christians everywhere to prepare for it. Beginning with the prophet Haggai and moving through the Bible, Loren lays a foundation for his belief that the time of the last great outpouring and the Lord's return is now. He writes, ""The church in our day has been ravaged and diminished in influence under pressure from the idolatrous culture that surrounds us and that, figuratively speaking, a remnant is even now returning from exile. It's time to rebuild on a biblical foundation and construct a temple adequate to contain the outpouring God is about to send."" Loren says we must reject our present culture, which is steeped in consumerism and a focus on self, and return to a culture of covenant. The former has weakened and destroyed us, while the latter will edify and strengthen us. As John the Baptist came in the spirit and power of Elijah to prepare the way, prophetic voices are now rising to proclaim that the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit in history is coming. The great last days' move of God approaches and the call for preparation now is the same as John preached so long ago. Through reliable prophetic voices, God now cries for holiness and cleansing to uproot everything in ourselves and in our churches not solidly rooted in the nature of Jesus and the Father.

Loren Sandford is in touch with both the current moves of God and what we need to do to get ready for the greatest harvest of souls the world has ever known. His book is earnest and thought-provoking. We all need to prepare ourselves for the tsunami of glory coming.--Cindy Jacobs Founder, Generals International Without character to carry the gift, the train will run off the tracks. Without boundaries to the river, we have nothing more than runoff water. But with banks put in place, we channel the river of God's presence into purposeful use. I am one who strongly believes in the joining of the generations as well. There are few in the global prophetic movement who come from the rich history that R. Loren Sandford does. We have had the Elijah Task from his parents; now we have another vintage resource for this generation. The Last Great Outpouring is such a work.--James W. Goll Founder, God Encounters Ministries With so many doom and gloom prophets making a name for themselves on the Internet, R. Loren Sandford's The Last Great Outpouring stands out as a beacon of hope for the greatest outpouring the church has ever seen. The next great move of God will be beyond anything eye has seen or ear has heard or has entered into the heart of man. Prophetically, Loren sees the coming outpouring and helps us to prepare for what must happen before we see it. He handles issues like judgment and mercy skillfully so readers can grasp the events that are about to unfold and ready our hearts to answer the call to become nation-changers. I highly recommend this book!--Jennifer LeClaire Author; Leader, Awakening House of Prayer Loren Sandford's book, The Last Great Outpouring, is a timely word indeed and, I might boldly add, it is a must read. There are many thought-provoking insights that will cause you to inquire of the Lord. You might discover revelations you had not previously embraced or even considered within its pages. God's love is always unshifting and unconditional, but His tone changes at times. In this season, a weightier and more serious and corrective love-filled tone will be released by the Spirit in order to bring alignment to His heart and purposes. I believe Loren Sanford has been prepared and called for such a time as this.--Patricia King Author, TV host, and minister I have walked with R. Loren Sandford over the last ten years and recognize him as a seasoned prophetic father in the body of Christ with a proven history of integrity and prophetic accuracy. His unwavering commitment to the secret place and pure devotion to Jesus Christ makes him a reliable voice in a sea of inaccurate prophetic utterance and compromise. If you are ready for a pure prophetic vision and clarion call inviting all of us into a deeper place of hearing and obeying God, start reading The Last Great Outpouring. You will not be disappointed!--Jeremiah Johnson Author, TV host; Maranatha School of Ministry
