JENNIFER: And then, because I couldn’t finish talking about Azusa Street because God came in, they invited of me back later to continue. And I told the story again, more in depth. And then he shared the testimony of what happened the second time he was there. He’d never, ever heard the audible voice of God, never encountered the Holy Spirit before that. As he’s hearing these stories, he actually hears the audible voice of God calling and commissioning him to be a revivalist. He said it was a life changing moment and he’s never been the same.

SID: Well, I believe that many of our audience are going to have some life changing moments, but you really caught my eye on something. I want to hear about the one-eyed African American pastor that sat in the pulpit with a cardboard box over his head until the glories of God showed

up. And he could be with the whole congregation there for hours, sometimes three hours with this box over his head. He said, “I’m not taking it off until the presence of God shows up.”

SID: This was called the Azusa Street Revival that Jennifer mentioned earlier, that took place in 1906. I interviewed a man that lived with a group of elderly women, as a young person, that were in that revival. He described that the glory cloud was so thick in the meeting the children literally played hide and seek in it. Jennifer, explain some of the things you have studied and heard. And I expect a demonstration as you listen, of some of the things she saw and heard happening to you.

JENNIFER: Amen.

SID: At Azusa Street.

JENNIFER: Oh, yeah. Azusa Street’s one of my most favorite revivals. It happened when a handful, maybe 15 African Americans, were hungry for more of God. And so they decided to pray and fast, but they would read Acts chapter two every night. They went to this little home on Bonnie Brae Street in Los Angeles. And they were just going to go after more of the Holy Spirit. They wanted a baptism of the Holy Spirit and they weren’t going to stop until God crashed in.
