John, remember years ago I quoted to you a comment often made on an old crime drama called ''Starsky and Hutch'', which said when a crime or bad event was about to happen..............the saying was, ''looks like its going down''!
 
Well that is what is about to happen in the world with regards to Iran. The follow up question on that show was, ''who's takin''? Well, I would say its Iran who is about to 'take'........as being on the ''wrong end of the stick''.
 
With regards to the prophecy below, it calls for an Elijah type or work to be done. How all this plays out with regards to the rapture we will soon see I think. Jesus did say when asked about the coming of Elijah ''He indeed will still come.........''
 
The rapture/translation will play a major part in my opinion in this ''coming of Elijah''.

The 100-YEAR-OLD PROPHECY
-Michael Edds.

The great Azusa Street Awakening, which over the years resulted
in 600 million being swept into the Kingdom of God and gave birth
to the Pentecostal Movement, began in 1906.  It was one of the
greatest outpourings of the Spirit of God since Pentecost. Multitudes
were saved, healed, and filled with the Holy Spirit. Incredible
miracles occurred.

This great revival moved from Los Angeles to its new focal point of
Chicago, Illinois.  The two great centers of revival in Chicago were
the North Avenue Mission and the Stone Church.  Pentecost swept
from Chicago to Canada, Europe, South America and Africa.  One
of the greatest outpourings occurred at Stone Church in 1913.
The renown evangelist  Maria Woodworth Etter began a revival
on July 2, 1913 at Stone Church.

The services were to last until the end of July but continued for six
months. This was a time of divine appointment for the city of
Chicago; God rent the heavens and came down!! Scenes from the
days of the Early Church began to occur at Stone Church. Word
began to spread throughout Chicago of miraculous healings,
deliverance from demonic possession, conversions, and of the
outpouring of the Holy Spirit happening in these meetings.
Advertisement was no longer necessary! The city was incredibly
shaken. Word spread of the miraculous intervention of God.
Thousands came on trolleys, buggies, and trains, while many
walked. Some came from distances of 1,600 miles away. 1200
to 1500 packed into Stone Church each night. The basement was
filled and many stood out on the street. Street meetings were held
to accommodate them. Three services were held on Sundays!

As Christians prayed around the altar one evening, Sister
Woodworth-Etter and others gave the following powerful prophecy
and divine promise, which they prophesied would occur within 100
years of the 1913 Chicago Visitation.  She prophesied of this
coming End Time Revival....

"We are not yet up to the fullness of the Former Rain and that when
the Latter Rain comes, it will far exceed anything we have seen!"

William Seymour, the leader of the Azusa Street Awakening, also
prophesied that in 100 years there would be an outpouring of God's
Spirit and His Shekinah Glory that would be greater and more far
reaching than what was experienced at Azusa.

It has been almost 100 years since these prophecies were given...
I believe that we have reached the time of the fulfillment of these
100 year old prophecies.   We must be diligent to pray, intercede
and protect what the Lord is doing.  We must encourage and edify
one another as never before.  We must crucify every critical,
judgmental and religious spirit that may be within us.  We must
put on the holiness and righteousness of Christ.  Our time of divine
destiny has come.  We are about to experience what Brother
Seymour and Sister Woodworth-Etter foresaw.  God is about to
rend the heavens and come down!...
