Joel 2: 1-2 & 28-29

Sound the trumpet in Jerusalem Raise the alarm on my holy mountain!

Let everyone tremble in fear because the day of the Lord is upon us.

It is a day of darkness and gloom, a day of thick clouds and deep blackness.

Suddenly, like dawn spreading across the mountains, a great and mighty army appears.

Nothing like it has been seen before or will ever be seen again.

 “Then, after doing all those things, I will pour out my Spirit upon all people.

Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams,

    and your young men will see visions.

 In those days I will pour out my Spirit even on servants—men and women alike.

 And I will cause wonders in the heavens and on the earth—
