Early Morning Heat Burst Hits Sioux Falls
What meteorologists call a “convective heat burst” sent temperatures skyrocketing early this morning in Sioux Falls. Temperatures rose rapidly from the lower 70′s to 101-degrees between 4:15 and 4:45 am. A heat burst occurs when warm air from 10-thousand to 20-thousand feet above the surface is forced to the ground. The heat burst also brought strong winds that knocked down some power lines and trees in the Sioux Falls area.
This has got to mean something. Those in watch and pray mode – I welcome your theories. I was reminded of this prophetic word which recently appeared on the Elijah List;
“For even as you have felt the degrees, the heat throughout the summer – as you have felt the heat throughout the summer, even up to now – there shall be records broken. It shall be a sign: the earth shall boil. For,” God said, “they shall say, ‘What is happening in the soil? Shall we talk about global warming?’ What do those that live on My earth know about what I have structured for the universe? Do not mock Me, do not mock Me,” says the Lord, “with global warming.” For the Spirit of God said, “Things will be shown and will be revealed in these next two years that shall come from the earth, that will prove the creation of man, that shall prove some of the Biblical things that have happened,” says the Lord. “Watch through the summer as the degrees go high and then suddenly low, low.” For God said, “Do you know what it is? It is a sign that I am sending to you…” says the Lord.
I thank God for air conditioning because I slept right through it.

Steve, I believe this is a significant weather event. As we have been asking God to rend the heavens over this area, a burst of heat from high in the atmosphere fell very suddenly. The local weatherman hadn’t even seen this before.
Remember Dutch Sheets point #5 in Maplewood: “I’m going to surprise with visitation – SUDDENLY!”
What happens in prayer and worship when the Holy Spirit shows up?
answer: The temperature begins to rise – Come Lord Jesus!

It seems that there is significants in the time of day in which this happened. At a time where only the night watch would be witness.

I witnessed the prophet giving that prophetic word at a conference two weeks ago. When it unfolded right here in Sioux Falls yesterday, I was very excited. I was awake at 3:30 a.m., but sound asleep during this dramatic temperature shift. I have yet to talk to someone, who was awake when this happened.
I believe the Lord is doing some unusual things in this great city, and this extreme overnight heat is just one of those things. What if this would have happened in the middle of the day when the sun was beating down on us and a storm suddenly brewed? One minute, we would be enjoying some mild weather, the next, we would be sweating, heading indoors, and pouring a glass of ice water! The world would have been glued to their TV sets, watching this strange weather happening. I love weather, especially storms, and my next job would be tracking storms, i.e. tornadoes. Yes, I might live a bit dangerously!
This weather phenomenon of going to an extreme high in such a short amount of time should make us hunger for more of God. Things like this reveal His mystery, and I get excited by the things God does, especially things that people have no explanation for! Don’t you desire more of Him and His creative ways?
I believe there’s a reason why it warms up overnight during the winter time, too. Whereas the sun makes it hot during the summer, the sun makes it cold in the winter. Hmmm… It’s just another of God’s great and unique ways of designing things in the atmosphere. Who can grasp the height or depth of His being?
