WHAT DO YOU THINKabout the excerpts below?

Excerpts from Azusa Street by Frank Bartleman
Bridge Publishing, Monmouth, Gwent, UK

In the early 1900s, the name “Azusa Street” became synonymous with the Holy Spirit’s renewal in America.  What began in a Los Angeles barn became a powerhouse and streaked across America like fire.

THE FIRE FALLS AT “AZUSA” Chapter 3

“There was a general spirit of humility manifested in the meeting.  They were taken up with God.  Evidently the Lord had found the little company at last, outside as always, through whom he could have right of way.  There was not a mission in the country where this could be done.  All were in the hands of men.  The Spirit could not work.”

“A body must be prepared, in repentance and humility, for every outpouring of the Spirit.  The preaching of the Reformation was begun by Martin Luther in a tumble down building in the midst of the public square in Wittenberg….In the revival in Wales the great expounders of England had to come and sit at the feet of crude, hard working miners, and see the wonderful works of God.”

RESPONSE:  Help us, Lord, to let you have the “right of way” in all our meetings.  Help us be prepared for an outpouring of your Holy Spirit.  Help us to be humble and repentant before you and earnestly seek your face-Sybil N.

“And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13
