Los Angeles Revival Continues with Verna Linzey

Contact: Bishop Hollis, 215-836-3498, www.MilitaryBibleAssociation.com

PHILADELPHIA, Penn., Nov. 30, 2012 /Christian Newswire/ -- Last Sunday, a meeting featuring Verna Linzey as the speaker sparked off a revival with calls from across the nation. One man is considering coming from New York. Another man from West Palm Beach, Florida called for prayer from Verna Linzey. Someone from Los Angeles called and plans to give his testimony this Sunday. During the week the Holy Spirit has continued moving among some of the participants and propelling others to come this Sunday. Rev. Linzey and son Rev. Jim Linzey, who also spoke last week, feel called by the Holy Spirit to return Sunday. The meeting is at 2:00 pm at 937 W. 223rd Street, Torrance, California to seek the Holy Spirit, His manifestations, and fruit of the Spirit.

The building, nicknamed "the mission," looks like an old box-like warehouse or garage, turned into a sanctuary inside. It was once used for the dissemination of street drugs. But this is where the Holy Spirit hit last Sunday when five erupted into the speaking of tongues, as the Holy Spirit gave utterance, under the ministry of Evangelist Verna Linzey. Some of the attendees have felt the presence of God upon them in a deeper way throughout the week. Jim Linzey saw Satan defeated in a dream. Pastor Alice is more vigilantly praying with church members.

"There is no centralized leadership, but the Holy Spirit," said Verna Linzey, "We just want to see Jesus." However focal personalities seem to be Rev. Verna Linzey, Rev. Jim Linzey, and Pastor Alice (Tanaka) Hodges who facilitated Morris Cerullo crusades in Japan.

"The provisions we need are a facility to open each night for people to come flat on their faces to meet God; and needed is temporary room and board for the volunteer administrator from New York willing to drive out to provide support of the revival," Pastor Alice said, "and any sponsors may donate through Military Bible Association or Global Covenant Church. Please pray the Holy Spirit works among us."

Verna Linzey, a product of the Azusa Street Revival, is a preacher in the Pentecostal Movement. She authored the widely-read book "The Baptism with the Holy Spirit," "Spirit Baptism: Understanding Pentecostal Theology," and co-edited "Baptism in the Spirit" with Jim Linzey.
