			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The timing of the San Francisco earthquake and the Azusa Street Revival are not coincidence. Below is one account, there are many more:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.propheciesfortoday.uk.com/listA.php?id=174">http://www.smithwigglesworth.com/pensketches/daughters.htm</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Meetings were transferred to the former African Methodist Episcopal<br />
Church at 312 Azusa Street. During the next few days as they were<br />
renovating the lumber store the first convert was recorded. One of the<br />
women who were cleaning the building had one of the workmen down on his<br />
knees and he was soundly converted before the place was opened.</p>
<p>On Easter Sunday morning (April 15th) Jennie Evans Moore took the<br />
Asbery&#8217;s to Smale&#8217;s church. After the sermon, when Smale invited<br />
testimonies. Jennie took the floor and told the congregation what had<br />
taken place in the Asbery home and in Azusa Street. She then spoke in<br />
tongues and the awed congregation heard Ruth Asbery give the<br />
interpretation.</p>
<p><span id="more-504"></span></p>
<p>On Tuesday a reporter from the Los Angeles Times visited Azusa Street.<br />
On the following day the paper carried the report of this visit. The<br />
same paper led with a report of the San Francisco earthquake that<br />
resulted in the death of 10,000 people.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Excerpt from the Stanley Frodisham prophecy from 1965:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.propheciesfortoday.uk.com/listA.php?id=174">http://www.propheciesfortoday.uk.com/listA.php?id=174</a></p>
<blockquote><p>With great judgements will I plead with the population of this country. Great darkness is coming upon the countries that have heard My gospel but no longer walk in it. My wrath shall come upon them. The darkness shall be so great and the anguish so sore that men shall cry out for death and shall not find it. There shall be a lingering death, famine and great catastrophes.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The prophecy above is not the only one in modern times that I have come across that states the Lord is not pleased with his church and we will be judged to bring us back to him. It&#8217;s pretty clear in the Word of God concerning the sins of Israel.</p>
<p>Also from the Stanley Frodisham prophecy:</p>
<blockquote><p>When I visit My people in mighty revival power, it is to prepare them for the darkness ahead. With the Glory shall come great darkness, for the Glory is to prepare My people for the darkness.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.&#8221;<br />
<em>&#8211;Isaiah 9:6</em></p>
<h3>God&#8217;s Descent</h3>
<p>A young woman named Mary was engaged to Joseph from King David&#8217;s family. Before they were married, she learned that she was going to have a baby by God&#8217;s Holy Spirit. The angel Gabriel greeted Mary and said, &#8220;You are truly blessed! The Lord is with you.&#8221; Then the angel told Mary, &#8220;Don&#8217;t be afraid! God is pleased with you, and you will have a son. His name will be Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of God Most High. The Lord God will make him king, as his ancestor David was. He will rule the people of Israel forever, and his kingdom will never end.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mary asked the angel, &#8220;How can this happen? I am not married!&#8221;</p>
<p>The angel answered, &#8220;The Holy Spirit will come down to you, and God&#8217;s power will come over you. So your child will be called the holy Son of God&#8230; nothing is impossible for God!&#8221;</p>
<p><span id="more-478"></span></p>
<p>At that moment, Mary knew her life and reputation were ruined. What was her reply?</p>
<p>Mary said, &#8220;I am the Lord&#8217;s servant! Let it happen as you have said.&#8221;</p>
<p>Joseph was a good man and did not want to embarrass Mary in front of everyone. So he decided to call off the wedding. While Joseph was thinking about this, an angel from the Lord came to him in a dream. The angel said, &#8220;Joseph, the baby that Mary will have is from the Holy Spirit. Go ahead and marry her. Then after her baby is born, name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mary was engaged to Joseph and traveled with him to Bethlehem. She was soon going to have a baby, and while they were there, she gave birth to her first-born son. She dressed him in baby clothes and laid him on a bed of hay, because there was no room for them in the inn.</p>
<p>In his Jewish history, Josephus wrote: &#8220;I found a geneology of Jesus in Jerusalem. Jesus was the illegitimate son, of an unfaithful woman&#8221;. Even during the time of Jesus ministry, when in his 30s, some Jews still mocked him, &#8220;We were not born from adultery&#8221;.</p>
<p>Through a shamefully pregnancy and a birth in poverty, God came into the world.</p>
<p>From the Koine Greek used in Scripture, Mary was a &#8216;very young girl&#8217;; probably fourteen or fifteen. She is in labor, in a strange town, with no place to have her baby. At last, they find a cave used to shelter and feed livestock. Joseph has to move animals out of the way so Mary has a room on the floor. Imagine the environment. Close, cramped quarters, filled with smell and sounds of livestock. Then, Mary&#8217;s travail; not much in the way of anesthetics back then. I imagine her cries of pain filling the cave. Then, rejoicing! Our Savior is born.</p>
<p>That night in the fields near Bethlehem some shepherds were guarding their sheep. All at once an angel came down to them from the Lord, and the brightness of the Lord&#8217;s glory flashed around them. The shepherds were frightened. But the angel said, &#8220;Don&#8217;t be afraid! I have good news for you, which will make everyone happy. This very day in King David&#8217;s hometown a Savior was born for you. He is Christ the Lord. You will know who he is, because you will find him dressed in baby clothes and lying in a bed of hay.&#8221;</p>
<p>Did angels descend from heaven and announce the Saviors birth to the kings, the influential, the aristocracy or even the high priests of the Temple? The angels announced the King&#8217;s birth to the shepherds in the field. The lowest caste in Jewish society.</p>
<p>Suddenly many other angels came down from heaven and joined in praising God. They said:</p>
<p>&#8220;Praise God in heaven!<br />
Peace on earth to everyone who pleases God.&#8221;</p>

<h3>Young girl from Brazil gives testimony with fire!</h3>
<p>Folks, the Breath of God is on this generation; old and young alike. Ready for revival? I believe we are in the midst of the Great Revival.</p>
<p>I have only read about the Holy Spirit falling on children this way in books written about events surrounding the Azusa Street Revival. Gustavo Lopez, from the Victory Life Center Spanish Church (translated the December 20, 2009, Christmas message), was gracious enough to watch this video and give me his take. He tells me the language is not Spanish, but Portugese with several segments in tongues.<br />

<p>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-3X5hIFXYU</a></p>
<p>&#8212;<br />
 Hello everyone,</p>
<p>I staggered across this video documentary this morning, and it has shown me the alarming results of what I have known for years. I believe that you should take 7 minutes of your time this morning and view this video. If it does not awaken you to the reality of what is taking place in not only America, But the entire planet, then I would pray that the Lord shakes you from your sleep.</p>
<p>PLEASE WATCH THEN CONTINUE READING.</p>
<p>We have slept while others are rising&#8230;.It is no wonder the prophetic words that many of the Pastors have heard from me has been hitting on Islam recently&#8230;.</p>
<p><span id="more-436"></span></p>
<p>We must come together as the Kingdom of God NOW&#8230;REVIVAL must begin NOW throughout this Central valley and the planet&#8230; Pray that the flesh (soul) of your bones obeys the call to unity of the Kingdom!&#8230;.</p>
<p>I believe that this is where we are in time , I also believe that we will see much more prior to the return of our Lord, it is critical for us to awake&#8230;.OH but the urgency I feel&#8230;.</p>
<p>Matt 13:35</p>
<p>35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.</p>
<p>Matt 13:24-27</p>
<p>24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: 25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. 26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. 27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? 28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? 29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.</p>
<p>Matt 13:37-40</p>
<p>37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; 38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; 39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. 40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.</p>
<p>I will be holding a special dinner meeting in the upcoming month/year for Church leaders and Pastors, Prophets, Apostles, Evangelists, Teachers, As I believe that this meeting is the will of the Lord and I believe I have heard from the Lord on this.</p>
<p>It will be in the Modesto area, and once I confirm Location and time I will email with the details. Please R.S.V.P. Now if you are going to plan to attend. So that I might get a feel for the approximate number of attendees. It will most likely be on a Saturday night approximately 5:30pm &#8211; 7:30 AGAIN PLEASE R.S.V.P.<br />
 by email now. I am shooting for the 17th of January.</p>
<p>I leave you with this scripture</p>
<p>John 4:35-38</p>
<p>35 You know the saying, &#8216;Four months between planting and harvest.&#8217; But I say, wake up and look around. The fields are already ripe* for harvest. 36 The harvesters are paid good wages, and the fruit they harvest is people brought to eternal life. What joy awaits both the planter and the harvester alike! 37 You<br />
 know the saying, &#8216;One plants and another harvests.&#8217; And it&#8217;s true. 38 I sent you to harvest where you didn&#8217;t plant; others had already done the work, and now you will get to gather the harvest.&#8221; NLT</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A little boy was selling newspapers on the corner, the people were in and out of the cold. The little boy was so cold that he wasn&#8217;t trying to sell many papers. He walked up to a policeman and said, &#8216;Mister, you wouldn&#8217;t happen to know where a poor boy could find a warm place to sleep tonight would you? You see, I sleep in a box up around the corner there and down the alley and it&#8217;s awful cold in there tonight. Sure would be nice to have a warm place to stay.&#8217;</p>
<p>The policeman looked down at the little boy and said, &#8216;You go down the street to that big white house and you knock on the door. When they come to the door you just say John 3:16, and they will let you in.&#8217;</p>
<p>So he did. He walked up the steps and knocked on the door, and a lady answered. He looked up and said, &#8216;John 3:16&#8242;. The lady said, &#8216;Come on in, Son&#8217;.</p>
<p>She took him in and she sat him down in a split bottom rocker in front of a great big old fireplace, and she went off&#8230; The boy sat there for a while and thought to himself: John 3:16 &#8230;I don&#8217;t understand it, but it sure makes a cold boy warm.</p>
<p><span id="more-404"></span></p>
<p>Later she came back and asked him &#8216;Are you hungry? &#8216;He said, &#8216;Well, just a little. I haven&#8217;t eaten in a couple of days, and I guess I could stand a bite of food,&#8217;</p>
<p>The lady took him in the kitchen and sat him down to a table full of wonderful food. He ate and ate until he couldn&#8217;t eat any more. Then he thought to himself: John 3:16&#8230; Boy, I sure don&#8217;t understand it but it sure makes a hungry boy full.</p>
<p>She took him upstairs to a bathroom to a huge bathtub filled with warm water, and he sat there and soaked for a while. As he soaked, he thought to himself: John 3:16&#8230; I sure don&#8217;t understand it, but it sure makes a dirty boy clean&#8230; You know, I&#8217;ve not had a bath, a real bath, in my whole life. The only bath I ever had was when I stood in front of that big old fire hydrant as they flushed it out. The lady came in and got him. She took him to a room, tucked him into a big old feather bed, pulled the covers up around his neck, kissed him goodnight and turned out the lights. As he lay in the darkness and looked out the window at the snow coming down on that cold night, he thought to himself: John 3:16&#8230; I don&#8217;t understand it but it sure makes a tired boy rested.</p>
<p>The next morning the lady came back up and took him down again to that same big table full of food. After he ate, she took him back to that same big old split bottom rocker in front of the fireplace and picked up a big old Bible.</p>
<p>She sat down in front of him and looked into his young face. &#8216;Do you understand John 3:16?&#8217;, she asked gently. He replied, &#8216;No, Ma&#8217;am, I don&#8217;t. The first time I ever heard it was last night when the policeman told me to use it,&#8217; She opened the Bible to John 3:16 and began to explain to him about Jesus. Right there, in front of that big old fireplace, he gave his heart and life to Jesus. He sat there and thought: John 3:16&#8230; don&#8217;t understand it, but it sure makes a lost boy feel safe.</p>
<p>You know, I have to confess I don&#8217;t understand it either, how God was willing to send His Son to die for me, and how Jesus would agree to do such a thing. I don&#8217;t understand the agony of the Father and every angel in heaven as they watched Jesus suffer and die. I don&#8217;t understand the intense love for ME that kept Jesus on the cross till the end&#8230; I don&#8217;t understand it, but it sure does make life worth living.</p>
<blockquote><p>For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.<br />
<em>&#8211; John 3:16</em></p>
