How Agnes Ozman, at the
beginning of the last century, was baptized with the Holy Spirit |
|
On
watchnight we had a blessed service, praying that God’s blessing might rest upon
us as the new year came in. During the first day of 1901 the presence of the
Lord was with us in a marked way, stilling our hearts to wait upon Him for
greater things. A spirit of prayer was upon us in the evening. It was nearly
eleven o’clock on this first of January that it came into my heart to ask
that hands be laid upon me that I might receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
As hands were laid upon my head the Holy Spirit fell upon me, and I began to
speak in tongues, glorifying God. I talked several languages. It was as
though rivers of living water were proceeding from my innermost being. |
