Amanda Berry Smith: God’s Image In Ebony

Amanda’s first husband died during the Civil War, while serving in an African American military unit. She lost her second husband and all of her children except one to death.

A Prophetic Word For Chicago

A PROPHETIC WORD FOR CHICAGO”
by Michael Edds
October 2007
In the year 2000, God spoke to me that He was going to reopen the “old wells” of revival throughout this nation and around the world. The purpose of the Coming Great Awakening is to restore total truth to the church and to give the world one last invitation of mercy before divine judgment falls upon a perverse generation.
In 2004, the Lord gave me a vivid, terrifying dream concerning Chicago. In the dream, I was with a group of dedicated Christians in a suite of rooms in the Sears Tower in downtown Chicago.

During that intense intercession, Torrey asked God to send him around the world.

What to look for in a church

The word translated “church” in Greek is ‘ekklesia’ which means an assembly of people called out. It is as if God calls people out from the world and they assemble together as the Lord leads.

A Divine Revelation of Hell – Mary K. Baxter

I first read this book in the Romanian language in 1995 or thereabouts. It really impacted me then. Of course, it is not compulsory to believe in the visions and revelations of others (unless they are in the Bible), but if God speaks to you through this, then praise His Holy Name.
