Wednesday’s word: June 4, 2025… In Muki, India, a missionary, Pandita Ramabai, was praying with a band of Hindu girls. They had spent days and nights in prayer, when suddenly the Spirit. was poured out in their midst as He hadbeen on the Day of Pentecost. Visible fire is said to have been seen upon one girl's bed, and when the other girls went for water to extinguish the fire, it was discovered that this was the fire ofthe Holy Spirit, such as Moses saw in the burning bush that was not consumed.These dear Hindu girls who received the Holy Spirit, spake with other tongues given by the Holy Spirit. One girl spake in the English language (which she had neverlearned), and this is the message that was spoken through her: Jesus is coming soon, get ready to meet Him."And the great revival spread on and on. Almost simultaneously the Spirit was poured out in the United States of America, in England, in Canada, in Africa, in China, and in the islands of the sea.Never was such worldwide revivalknown to spread so quickly and simutaneously. The Spirit was poured out upon praying bands in numberless places, who had never heard before of the infilling ofthe Holy Spirit. In every instance, without exception those who received the Holy Spirit spake in other tongues exactly as those who had received in Bible days. The latter rain was falling on the earth. In order to receive the Holy Spirit, one had to be empty and humble. The poor and rich, black or white, the mistress and the maid alike received the Holy Spirit whenthey humbled themselves and sought with all their hearts.Those who received, praised the Lord and magnified His Name, as no one but Spirit-filled saints can do. Waves of glory, floods of praise swept over assemblies who had received the Holy Spirit. There was no way of stopping this great revival, it seemed.Shared from - Ralph Mahoney (The Shepherd Staff)Tim Hall
