Two Visions of the (Now Imminent) End Time Revival
Liquid Light Raining Tommy Hicks 1961and Rain of Fire Susan Omara 2009
In a Five Doves letter on 27 February 2012 I highlighted two visions of the end time revival, 48 years apart!! Link belowTommy Hicks Liquid Light RainingI have included an excerpt of the Tommy Hicks prophecy (60 years ago this year) below, and the Five Doves link (RJ 27 January 2012) provides the full prophecy (worth reading or scanning). What I would like to do in this post is to revisit these two prophecies, noting the strong similarity between two visions of the glory of the Lord coming on the Earth, 48 years apart! Maybe Tommy Hicks is in a heavenly arena, waiting to see his vision come to pass!!Liquid Light Raining – ExcerptAnd from those clouds suddenly there came great drops of liquid light raining down upon mighty this giant, and slowly, slowly, this giant began to melt, began to sink itself in the very earth itself, and as he melted, his whole form seemed to have melted upon the face of the earth, and the great rain began to come down. Liquid drops of light began to flood the very earth itself and as I watched this giant that seemed to melt, suddenly it became millions of people over the face of the earth. As I beheld the sight before me, people stood up all over the world! They were lifting their hands and they were praising the Lord.Susan Omara – Rain of Fire!Is Joel’s prophecy about to be fulfilled?Joel 2:28 And afterward I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. 30 And I will show signs and wonders in the heavens, and on the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke.
In early January 2009, Susan Omara (previously Cummings - married in 2009) released a powerful word - Rain of Fire, a vision of the glory of the Lord coming on the Earth. There is a strong parallel witness to Tommy Hicks prophecy, and a warning to us all of the imminent outpouring of the Holy Spirit - as well as reason for Great Expectations for us in seeing the move of the Holy Spirit in our nations.
The world and the ‘sleeping’ church may struggle to understand what is going on! Just like it is hard to understand the suddenness of Covid 19 and its effects. This prophetic word was originally on the In the Image of His Glory website. A copy can be found on the link below.
I have reproduced the prophetic word below. I know that this is quite long, but I feel that this is a word for us now! The Rain of Fire vision was released one month before a fire tragedy in Victoria (Australia) on 7 February 2009, exactly (to the day) 42 years exactly since an unprecedented fire tragedy in Tasmania in 1967. The number 42 speaks of the Coming of the Lord!A sign from the Lord! The Victorian fires occurred mainly on Saturday 7 February 2009. I had been asked to preach on the Sunday 8 February. I came across this prophecy and several days before had felt led to preach on Rain of Fire (revival!!). My chosen message title was echoed in news headlines on Sunday, the very day I preached (Rain of Fire!). A very sad tragedy, but amazing timing.This year is important, 12 years since the Victorian fires on 7 February 2009! The night before the 12 years in the Day of the Lord? Are we approaching twilight? As we read in Isaiah 21 verse 12 The Morning Comes, but also the Night!I do not know whether the Rapture of the Remnant Church (the Bride) will come before, as a catalyst, or after what I believe will be a powerful but quick revival across the face of the Earth!! In a Five Doves letter on 10 September 2012, I wrote about my understanding that there may be 12 years in the Day of the Lord (link below). I do believe that the time just ahead, including from 7 February 2021, are critical and threshold times, especially with all the other signs in the World!! We are in a time of high watching!!
I believe in the prophetic reality of Joel’s outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon ALL FLESH!! This has not really taken place yet. Consider one country India, with a population of around 1.38 billion people. While there are variations across the country, the proportion of Christians in the nation is only around 2.3 per cent!!! Is there a great harvest just ahead? Joel’s prophecy says yes – fired by a New Pentecost? Come Lord Jesus!! Come in revival! Come for your people!!

Rain of Fire - Vision
In the vision, I was looking at the world from a suspended position. I could see people and areas from a panoramic position and also at times, I saw things close up. The position varied as it did with the scenes and with the messages that I was given to understand by the experiences given to me. I saw what looked to me like great fiery rain coming from heaven and it came in great drops or elongated streams. It was not like the natural rain that we know of, but it was like spiritually infused living molten lava, a real fire, but it was Living Spirit; the living fiery essence of the Father that was raining down towards the inhabitants below.As I watched, I saw that it fell simultaneously in one great event all over the earth. But it did not fall everywhere, and it did not upon everyone. It rained down suddenly and I saw that many people did see it coming from above as it happened, as it was a real physical event that men could actually experience and see, but it was also a divine event that not all men would experience, but I understood that men would know that God had entered into the corporate natural affairs of men divinely again.It was not a slow natural event like a storm or a weather phenomenon that you could track, or follow and monitor, actually, from my perspective it looked like a slow unfolding event, but I understood that it actually happened very fast. I was just being given an enhanced view for my understanding and learning. The raining fire of the Father that I saw falling was the Real Living Essence of the Father Himself that was being released upon those whom He had prepared to receive it below. It was interesting to watch this happen, as it fell upon people whom you would not expect nor think that it would, or even that it would not, by our thinking or reasoning of qualifications.The fiery rain would come down and fall upon a particular person who would be either aware of it falling or not be aware of it falling at that particular moment, but when it did hit them, they underwent a sudden tremendous change. I watched close up as the living fire seemed to penetrate into them and infuse itself or radiate itself throughout their beings and bodies. They literally became the very same Essence of the Father that the rain was that had fell upon them. Their eyes burned with a new life and even their skin was changed. It was not like ours now. It had a different texture or spiritual component to its makeup, and the fire flowed throughout their skin like a radiance, but it was not just an outward surface shining, but it was an internal radiance from within the skin layers itself. It was not like human skin as we know it, the qualities had been divinely altered, and the people now had new natures. I did not fully understand all of this process, but it was real and it was new. They were of a different spirit, as they now embodied the divine in such a way that we have yet to experience up to now.The people who were infused would now physically embody the divine fire, but it also lived through them and it became them as they became it, also. They did not lose their individual personalities through the process, but each person was still their own unique vessel, but they were also now divinely infused and were more divinely aware of God and understood their earthly purpose now. The fire seemed to fully express itself within them so that it flowed outwardly also by the transformation that was happening to them. By this I mean that there was such a Holiness and a terrible Presence of the Father in them and on them, that you knew that God the Father walked in them, and that He was now walking through them in a manner that we have yet to experience in any generation yet. God was manifesting Himself in a people just like He did with Jesus, when Jesus walked amongst us. But now these people did it openly.I then watched in the vision from a view further away, and I saw that it indeed only fell upon some and not upon others. The selection of who it fell upon was the Father’s and not of any man. Most of those that I saw that it fell upon were some people were very weary and very embattled people. From earthly standards, we probably wouldn’t have thought that they would amount to anything by their current life and their struggles that they have endured. But I understood that their unique trials and their life’s struggles that they lived out had actually served to prepare them for this new infusion that now came from the Father.One man that I saw in particular that received the fiery rain was very emotionally and spiritually broken. He had endured much physical hardship and I understood that he had endured much persecution from the church. He had been misunderstood most of his life and he also had thought that he had failed God and that he had missed God and that he had lost his place. But God used these things in his life to lead him closer to Himself and to purify this man to be able to be one that would become His chosen vessel. He was very beloved by the Lord and he had learned humility through the suffering which caused him to rise above the hardness and the hatred that’s in the world, even though he did not understand why his life was this way.Not every person that I saw was as broken as this man was that had received this infusion, I was just given to notice certain ones for my own learning and for our beneficial clarity. Many of the people I saw seemed to be living successful lives and seemed to be spiritually healthy or spiritually active in their walks in spite of the hour in which they lived in. But the common factor that I noticed with them all was that they each had undergone recent trials and they were currently experiencing various levels of spiritual warfare and were in various stages of purging by the Lord in their walks. Most did not understand the full reason why their lives were embattled, nor understand the full plan of God behind it all, but they did seek God in the midst of it all.Another person I noticed was one that did not receive the divine infusion. But rather, this person watched as others were filled and was angry and yelled at God. One man I saw screamed out that he was one of the servants that had prophesied of its coming, and had taught on it, so he should be one that received it and that he deserved it. He was angry that the Father did not give it to him. I was afraid as I saw this in the vision, as I knew that his anger was pride and arrogance and that the Father was just in this, for this man’s heart was not truly right. I also knew that this man would fall as he did not have the right heart necessary to stand in the next hour and to fulfill his course successfully. He had allowed the pride of position and the pride that comes from being used by God to bring forth revelation from God to others, to cause him to be disqualified and to harden his heart. I feared the Lord as I watched, for I knew that we all stand by Grace, and not one of us can receive anything from God unless we truly believe and unless we truly are fully surrendered to Him in every way.I divinely understood that it was a matter of the individual’s heart before God, and not just on his outward qualifications, knowledge, or training. God walks with each of His People, and He daily leads them on their life’s journey, and what they learn throughout their experiences and through their dependence upon God through it, determines their receptiveness or not. God desires that we utterly trust Him, that we utterly love Him, and that we utterly believe Him. Even though we each experience different levels of trials and events in our personal journeys, the lessons are the same for all men. We must each come to a death of our own ego and self life and we must come to a deeper personal knowledge of God and into an intimate relationship with God. Our responses to God in our life’s process will determine if we will walk fully with Him or not, and if we will allow Him to change us into what he wants us to be. God sees us all and knows each of our hearts. He knows who will let Him have His full and complete way in their lives. Even though we might think we have failed Him, because of the severity of our individual paths and trials, and also because we did not understand the process of why we were in the events, the Father knows the depths of what lies deep within each of us.I watched as others were transformed here and there, and it was also a very shocking event on the earth as it was so sudden and unexpected. It also did not come in the manner in which we had been taught from the church leaders, but it came as it had been ordained from the Father, for this generation. There was worldwide upheaval as the newly infused people began to quickly then be sent out by the Father all over the earth on the Father’s business, and the people around them realized that they did not receive what the others had. There was a lot of crying out from people all around also, as this event also produced a huge surge of spiritual searching and even chaos in the church as the people who were not infused questioned the established church leaders of their knowledge of this event and its significance.I also was given to know that out of those who did not receive the infusion of the Fiery Essence, this did not mean that they were not the Lord’s people. It just meant that they had missed the divine release because of their lack of inner spiritual preparation and that they had not fully developed their hearts before God in their relationships in a timely manner for this event. They were still God’s children, but they had missed the opportunity to be used in this higher divine manner for the next stages of events that would come upon the earth. There was great sorrow expressed over this reality, as many of them realized that they did not fully lay hold of the higher call or obtain to the mark that God had set for them all to achieve.What I did see was that this divine event caused a great sobering wave to spread across the church and also a wave of a great determination to seek God exploded across the church and also across the globe. Many began to rise up and decide to be purified themselves and they began to sacrifice everything to obey God, but it did not come as a reality in their lives until after these events happened. Nevertheless, this event served to bring about the corporate awakening and the rising up of the majority of the true Body of Christ across the globe. Many now questioned what they had been spiritually taught by others, and many returned to studying the Word and they began to search it out for themselves. A new respect for the Church began to also spread amongst the Christian people, as they realized the reality of being the Body of Christ, and repentance began to burst forth and a new sense of purpose caused them to not persecute one another, but to see each other as Christ.This event also brought about much chaos, fear, confusion, and anger amongst the unbelieving Christians, and among the religious, and especially the general world populations. Great persecution also immediately broke out against the divine fire, as many did not understand it and they feared it. The newly infused people of God were not like them anymore, as they had been divinely changed, and this caused much panic and turmoil. But it also caused revival to break out and a great fear of the reality of God began to be spread worldwide.The devil was also greatly enraged as the Divine Essence now was embodied again in the earth, and he no longer had dominion over God’s people to prevent them anymore, and a great resistance and opposition and war broke out in many areas as the Divine Light now clashed with the darkness. I saw great upheavals and war in many areas, but also great restorations and great Light begin to spread throughout God’s people all across the globe. The Father is in full control of the earthly events, even those to come and He is active in all of the affairs of men.Matthew 3:10 Luke 3: 16 Matthew 20:21 Mark 10 Joel 2
