Hello everyone. Praise the Lord!
This is two separate testimonies that was recorded and printed by the Azusa Street Mission, In Los Angeles, California, in their newsletter in November of1906.
The First One
A sister who had been healed and baptized with the Holy Ghost related the following vision, "Two days ago the power of God came over me and He said. 'whatsoever ye asked in my name believing, ye shall receive.' I said 'give wisdom to speak to the people,' immediately I was in a great hall with tables spread all about, And the Lord was the waiter, and I saw His beautiful, smiling face.
He spoke to me and said, 'I have called my friends and they did not come, therefore go out and ask everyone you find to come to the wedding.' as I looked around to see something beautiful, The scene changed and I was in a hospital and saw poor creatures dying, looking like skeletons. I thought my call was to the hospital and telephone to know when it was open for visitors, but the Lord revealed to me that it meant all those who are sick in their souls."
The Second One
"He took me into his banqueting house, And the banner over me was love." A brother says the Lord gave him a vision of the banqueting house. He passed under the great arches. Each one had a name upon it. The first was love, then there was joy, peace, And among the others he saw, "Independence." He asked what that meant. The answer was, "Is it not wonderful to be free?" Dear saints, this is one of the sweetest arches in the banqueting house. This bondage to love sets me perfectly free.
