Richbee: Recently, I've heard people use the word 'the rain is been held'. I actually do wonder, just how possible is it? I tot we were done believing 'superstitious' things but this suprisingly is still believed.

So to y'all that believes it, I'd like to ask, HOW EXACTLY IS RAIN HELD.
Is there a scientific backing to this theory?

Richbee: That's quite a tale. Tot only God had those powers. Aii

Spot the irony.

In one Commercial Garden in my town, Rain Making/Holding is inclusive when you want to rent the place. They charge an extra 20k, if rain touches the location your whole funds is given back to you.

Odenigbo Aroli: You must be gifted in the art of African medicine to be able to hold the rain nor move it to a different direction. There is a popular Rainmaker in my town who was famous for holding/moving the rain with rare precision. But pride got over him and he also got greedy and lost his powers. But there are rainmaker and their powers are real and they fight the rain with "WIND".

The ways of the gods, are not the ways of man.. Everything on the surface of the earth can be controlled by Man.



Genesis 1:26

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Holding the rain or making it fall is something that is only understood by those who are soldiers on each side (God's side and the devil's side). Both parties know about it, and only civilians question it.

The spiritual controls the physical. Rain can be held, and it can be made to fall. It depends on the shift of the equilibrium in favour of the more powerful entity, and the ability of the practitioners to draw on the Power or powers that make it happen.

My family had an occasion recently, and we held the rain the way we know how to do when some forces tried to make it fall. Too bad for those forces.

Guy it's science and technology not magic, do yourself a favour google cloud seeding.
Few weeks ago China lauched cloud seeding rockets and it rained.
They hit rockets into the sky, before you could say jack robinson there was a heavy downpour.

Rain making/holding is spiritual. If not can you explain why the dude you mentioned doesn't eat anything as long as he is on it? This is the spiritual angle to the whole exercise. If he dares to eat anything, he can burn all the leaves in the whole world and nothing happens. No scientist enters his laboratory for research or experiment with express instruction from some voices not to eat. Think about it.
