THE AZUSA PROPHECIES - 100 Years Ago
Posted by: prophetic <prophetic@...>
such prophecies? Are we only convinced that evil will triumph
and that true Revival is "impossible"? Maybe such cynicism is
hurting us more than we know. Why can God not pour out His
Spirit again in our day the same as He did in the past?
THE AZUSA PROPHECIES - 100 Years Ago
-Michael Edds & co.
As the Azusa Street Revival was coming to an end in the 1900s,
it is recorded that Charles Parham, known as "Father of Pentecost"
and William Seymour, known as "The Catalyst of Pentecost" on
the same day, at two separate locations, prophesied that there
will be another stronger move of God´s Spirit on the earth, which
will take place 100 years from then. They said that it will be an
outpouring of God´s Spirit and His Shekinah glory that would be
greater and more far-reaching than what was experienced at Azusa.
This prophecy was also confirmed by Maria Woodworth-Etter in
1913. The revival had moved from Los Angeles to its new focal
point of Chicago, Illinois. Pentecost swept from Chicago to Canada,
Europe, South America and Africa. One of the greatest outpourings
occurred at Stone Church in 1913. The renowned evangelist Maria
Woodworth Etter began a revival on July 2, 1913 at Stone Church.
The services were to last until the end of July but continued for six
months. This was a time of divine appointment for the city of
Chicago; God rent the heavens and came down!! Scenes from the
days of the Early Church began to occur at Stone Church. Word
began to spread throughout Chicago of miraculous healings,
deliverance from demonic possession, conversions, and of the
outpouring of the Holy Spirit happening in these meetings.
Advertisement was no longer necessary! The city was incredibly
shaken. Word spread of the miraculous intervention of God.
Thousands came on trolleys, buggies, and trains, while many
walked. Some came from distances of 1,600 miles away. 1200
to 1500 packed into Stone Church each night. The basement was
filled and many stood out on the street. Street meetings were held
to accommodate them.
As Christians prayed around the altar one evening, Sister
Woodworth-Etter and others gave the following powerful prophecy-
"We are not yet up to the fullness... it will far exceed anything
we have seen." Also that "there will be a greater move of God in
the next 100 years, the glory of which has never been seen..."
Michael Edds continues-
"I believe that we have reached the time of the fulfillment of these
100 year old prophecies. We must be diligent to pray, intercede
and protect what the Lord is doing. We must encourage and edify
one another as never before. We must crucify every critical,
judgmental and religious spirit that may be within us. We must
put on the holiness and righteousness of Christ. Our time of divine
destiny has come. We are about to experience what Brother
Seymour and Sister Woodworth-Etter foresaw."
