Drought Responses

It came to pass in Georgia of the United States at the time George “Sonny” Perdue was governor that there was a severe drought. The land was afflicted. Governor Perdue turned to the Lord his God and adjured those among the people who revered the God of heaven to pray for rain, though there were those foreigners who mocked the people. The governor and his men stood outside the capitol and prayed. The Lord heard and answered. Though estimated to endure for many years, the drought was soon broken.

After these things, it came to pass in California of the United States at the time Jerry Brown was governor that a severe drought came upon the land. The land was afflicted. Governor Brown did not turn to the Lord but relied on the strength of his own hand, and the Lord did not answer.
